A foam spring for use in pillows, cushions, mattresses or the like, the foam spring having a tubular resilient body made of foam with holes extending inwardly from an outside surface to an inside location, wherein the holes extend at a non-perpendicular angle relative to a line perpendicular to the outside surface of the spring at the position of the hole. The foam spring is manufactured by a method which comprises providing interrupted slits along lines extending in the longitudinal direction of a foam layer; cutting a transverse strip out of this foam layer; bending two opposite ends of the strip towards each other; and fixing the two opposite ends into a tubular shape to form the tubular resilient body, wherein the slits are made in a direction forming an angle with the direction perpendicular to the surface of the foamed layer. |
