The HÅG Capisco 8106 is the original fully upholstered saddle chair designed to promote active sitting and healthier posture throughout the day. Its sculpted saddle seat and contoured backrest support multiple seated positions, including forward-leaning, upright, sideways and perched postures—ideal for pairing with a sit-stand desk or standard-height workstation.

The HÅG inBalance® mechanism encourages continuous, intuitive movement so your body stays active instead of static. A fully upholstered seat and back add comfort for long work sessions, while easy seat height and depth adjustments make it simple to dial in the right fit for different users.

Thanks to its compact seat size and low starting seat height, the Capisco 8106 can sit closer to the floor than many traditional task chairs, helping users keep both feet grounded and maintain a comfortable leg angle. This makes it a strong option for individuals who often find standard office chairs too tall or too deep.

The 8106 works well in home offices, creative studios and professional environments where movement, posture support and long-hours comfort all matter.
