Executive chairs upholstered in fabric rather than hide: the Xenon in high and medium back, the Zure with its distinctive white or black shell, plus the Vegas, Oscar, Ontario, Sofia and Mode. Fabric earns its place in an executive chair for two plain reasons: it breathes better than leather through a long day of meetings, and it shrugs off the scuffs that show on polished hide. If the office runs warm or the chair gets eight hours of use rather than two, fabric is usually the wiser buy.
Choosing a fabric executive chair
High back or medium back is the first decision. High back chairs like the Xenon and Vegas support the shoulders and head and look the part behind an executive desk; medium backs such as the Xenon medium suit smaller frames and smaller rooms. The Zure is the one to look at if the office is modern and pale: its moulded shell in white or black frames the fabric neatly and reads as furniture rather than equipment.
Check the mechanism against how the chair will be used. A chair for a private office lived in all day should tilt and lock in more than one position; a chair that mostly hosts meetings can be simpler. All of these come with arms, and if you want the full sit-tested treatment for daily desk work, cross-check our ergonomic chairs before deciding.
Leather, mesh and the rest of the room
If the same chair in hide appeals, the leather executive chairs carry many of the same shapes, and mesh executive chairs run cooler still. Round out the room with visitor chairs that echo the executive seat and a boardroom table that deserves them. The full executive chairs collection sits one level up.
