When it comes to office seating, the HÅG Capisco stands out as one of the most versatile and flexible office chairs on the market. Unlike traditional office chairs, the Capisco offers a unique ergonomic design that promotes movement, posture variety, and adaptability for different working styles.
What Makes the HÅG Capisco So Flexible?
1. Unique Saddle Seat Design
Unlike conventional chairs, the Capisco features a saddle-shaped seat inspired by horse riding. This design encourages an active sitting posture, reducing strain on the lower back and engaging core muscles.
✅ Sit forward, sideways, or backward – the seat accommodates multiple positions.
✅ Encourages a natural S-curve in the spine to prevent slouching.
✅ Ideal for both sitting and perching when using a height-adjustable desk.
2. Full Height Adjustability (From Seated to Standing Desk Use)
One of the most adaptable features of the Capisco is its ability to work with both standard desks and standing desks.
🔹 Seat height adjusts from low to high, allowing for a range of postures.
🔹 Supports “perching” – a half-standing position that reduces fatigue.
🔹 Perfect for users who alternate between sitting and standing throughout the day.
3. 360-Degree Sitting Positions
Unlike traditional office chairs that support only one sitting posture, the Capisco allows you to sit in multiple orientations:
✔ Standard forward sitting – Provides ergonomic back support.
✔ Sideways sitting – Allows more mobility while maintaining support.
✔ Reverse sitting (facing the backrest) – Creates an open hip angle and relieves back strain.
✔ Perching position – Great for standing desk users, reducing pressure on the legs.
4. Encourages Active Sitting
Many office chairs encourage static sitting, which can lead to stiffness and poor circulation. The Capisco promotes movement and dynamic sitting, helping to:
🚀 Improve blood circulation.
🚀 Reduce lower back tension.
🚀 Engage core muscles and improve posture.
🚀 Prevent long-term health issues like back pain and RSI (repetitive strain injury).

♻ Made from recycled materials, including post-consumer plastic and sustainable fabric options.
♻ Designed for longevity, reducing waste compared to standard office chairs.
♻ 100% recyclable, making it an eco-friendly choice.

✔ Home offices
✔ Creative workspaces
✔ Minimalist office environments
Available in a variety of colors and fabrics, it can complement any workspace aesthetic.
