HAG Capisco 8106 Saddle Chair
Most chairs want you to sit still. The Capisco wants you to move. Designed by Peter Opsvik in 1984 and still in production four decades later, the HÅG Capisco is built around one idea: sitting in one position all day is the problem, not the solution.
The saddle seat lets you sit forward, sideways, or reversed — leaning into the sculptural backrest like a drafting stool. Your hips stay open. Your posture shifts naturally throughout the day. There's no "correct" position because every position is correct.
This chair exists because conventional ergonomics isn't enough. A traditional task chair supports you in one posture. The Capisco supports you in dozens. HÅG's in Balance® mechanism creates a fluid, responsive tilt that follows your movement instead of resisting it. The result: better circulation, less stiffness, and the kind of comfort that actually lasts past 3 PM.
Built for sit-stand desks and traditional desks alike. The Capisco adjusts from standard desk height all the way up to standing-desk perch height with an optional foot ring. One chair that works at every surface in your office — 28" and up.
Configured to your spec. Choose your upholstery in fabric, vinyl, or leather. Choose your frame color. Choose glides or casters. This chair is built to order, exactly the way you want it.
Over half the chair is made from recycled materials. No harmful glues in production. Every component separates for recycling at end of life. Warranted to 300 lbs with a 10-year guarantee from one of Scandinavia's largest seating manufacturers.
Three ways to get it:
- Shipped to your office or home. Arrives knockdown — straightforward assembly.
- White glove delivery. We deliver and assemble it for you, for a fee.
- Pick up at our La Brea showroom. For 3 chairs or fewer, we'll have it assembled and waiting.
This is a chair you need to sit in before you buy. The saddle seat is unlike anything else on the market. We have the task version with headrest, the sit-to-stand, and the stool in our La Brea showroom — come try all three and feel the difference.
