The Humanscale Freedom Chair redefined the possibilities of an ergonomic chair. By minimizing manual controls, Humanscale took the ergonomic adjustments present in most desk chairs and automated them in the Freedom Chair. After setting the initial height and seat depth, the elegant mechanisms engineered into the Humanscale Freedom Chair naturally respond to your body';s movement throughout the day. This dynamic relationship between your motions and the response of your desk chair helps to promote blood flow, fights muscle fatigue and maintains the elasticity of your spine and joints. No more need for levers, locks, or encyclopedic owners manuals: your body is always moving. If you want an ergonomic chair that moves with you, look no further than the Humanscale Freedom chair. Ergonomic Chair Pro is an Authorized Dealer of the Humanscale Freedom Chair and all Humanscale products. The Humanscale Freedom Chair has a limited lifetime warranty and a 5-year warranty on fabric and cushions.

A headrest can be added to the Humanscale Freedom Chair to provide extra head support while reclined. The headrest is also specially designed to maintain the same viewing angle regardless of recline angle.

Fabric or Leather

Fabric - Grade 0

Pick your seat upholstery from the fabrics and leathers below. Note that the gel seat option is only available in Vellum and Wave fabrics. Promessa is a soft and supple, synthetic leather; Spirit Millenium is vinyl.

Fabric - Grade 1

Wave

This four-way stretch textile with a three-dimensional wave pattern offers a range of brilliant colors taken from nature. It exceeds all standards for contract upholstery.

Vellum

Constructed from a blend of nylon, Cordura and elastic yarn, this four-way stretch textile offers a pleasing texture, while providing the extreme durability required for long-term use.

Lotus

Fabric - Grade 3

Sensuede

Sensuede was developed to be the best and most luxurious engineered suede available. The faux suede's soft touch comes from the use of breathable and wrinkle resistant recycled microfibers that are finer than a human hair but are extra-strong, resulting in a very resilient fabric. This material also was selected because of its environmentally sensitive content and manufacturing process.

Promessa

Promessa is a high quality, breathable and wipe clean synthetic leather that looks great and has a luxurious, soft hand. Promessa ultraleather is more durable than leather and breathes better offering a great option for those who like the look of fine leather but do not wish to pay the price of true leather.

Leather - Grade 0

Vicenza

A lightly corrected, aniline dyed leather produced from European hides. It receives a special retannage that enriches the leather and tightens the grain.

Leather - Grade 1

Bizon

Bizon is a durable, water-resistant leather suitable for a wide range of applications. The combination of a special retannage and technically-advanced finishing process results in a leather that is not only water-resistant but also practical for applications that require a durable finish.

Leather - Grade 3

Cervo

Cervo is chromium tanned and aniline dyed. The unique tannage approximates the rich luxurious suppleness of deer skin. The clarity and depth of the aniline dyes provide a distinct beauty enhancing all the natural characteristics. Cervo is thicker than the other naked leathers in our collection. Specialized milling adds additional character providing a soft pebble grain texture unmatched by any other leather in its class.

Box Stitching
