Comfort	Our materials come from nature - whether it be wool sustainably sheared from New Zealand sheep or latex tapped from trees. These premium materials are comfortable on your body and conscience. 100% all natural & organic Birch Wool provides unparalleled comfort and temperature regulation. Birch Wool is designed to retain shape with a natural elasticity of each fiber. Talalay latex is up to 7 times more breathable than other types of latex. Natural latex is also hypoallergenic and anti-microbial.	Breathable, responsive foam in the top Comfort layer will perfectly hug your body and is designed to work with the Quick Response memory foam layer and Relief layer to keep your spine aligned all night, so you wake up refreshed and pain-free. Breathable poly-blend cover Hole-punched comfort layer for airflow Pocket spring coils for less heat retention Merino wool for moisture-wicking heat dissipation.
Support	We spent countless hours finding the right density of latex, quantity of wool, and type of steel springs to provide unprecedented comfort and pressure relief. Each mattress features a reinforced perimeter for best in class edge support. The coils that run along the outside of your mattress are actually firmer, so no more feeling of falling off the bed when lying down or sitting on the edge. Natural Talalay latex provides response to cushion your pressure points while giving support. Our latex is carefully managed to ensure consistency. Hundreds of individual steel coils help to cradle your body and provide support, while also limiting motion transfer. Additionally, the reinforced perimeter coils provide best in class edge support.	Get support like you've never experienced with the Relief layer. Its micro-pocket spring and exclusive foam combination give your hips and shoulders the extra support they need, while the Quick Response layer, with 1,000+ pocket springs, provides motion isolation and unparalleled support and stability. The Legend offers our most advanced support, with an added layer of micro-pocket springs. This extra layer of micro-pocket springs provides unparalleled support for your hips and shoulders for an elevated, one-of-a-kind sleeping experience. Plus you'll still get the responsive comfort layer and contouring memory foam available in the Original and Hybrid models, as well as the reactive pocket spring base in the Hybrid.
