    There is nothing I find more infuriating than desk chairs that are designed to look like race car bucket seats. Fake bolsters and fake racing harness holes will not make you game any better. It’s just tacky shit for people who don’t know any better.

      They do look horrible. I found a model that at least has sofa fabric, not polyurethane fake leather but still it’s a bit tacky. You don’t need lateral support on a damn desk chair. But unfortunately these chairs are great value, you can’t find office chairs with the same comfort features for that cheap. I paid $400 for my better than average gamer chair while an equal office chair is about $1200.

        This. I can’t afford a proper ergonomic chair my dude. Gaming chairs are as good as it gets for me. Mine was like below 250€.
        I am also a big guy. A proper ergonomic chair for my weight is expensive AF.
