Herman Miller, the brand at the top of everyone’s gaming chair wishlist, has just launched two new colorways for its highly coveted Embody gaming chair in the UK. US shoppers have had access to these versions for a while now, but before then, it’s been a while since we saw the brand offer new support for one of its flagship products.
Originally launched in 2020, the Logitech Embody has long been known as the chair that everyone wants, but few can afford. It was already available in a few colors, namely its iconic Cyan (black and blue), all-Black, Amethyst (white and purple), and Galaxy (white and Alpine green). Herman Miller has now released stock of the Ignite colorway (white and solar orange), and Nova (navy blue and deep purple).
Of course, these new versions of the Embody wear the throne’s ludicrously high price tag. Buying at Herman Miller’s full price right now will set you back £1,715 in the UK, which is, if no one minds me saying, a stupid amount of money to spend on a chair.
Nonetheless, this particular one has a lot of prestige, and while I haven’t tried it personally, our reviews of both the Herman Miller Embody and its more affordable cousin, the Herman Miller Vantum, both speak as highly of them as any other review will.
In the US, these “new” colorways actually launched back in October of 2025, but on the brand’s online store for Stateside shoppers, things work a little differently. You can choose the frame and upholstery color separately there, whereas UK customers are locked to preset matches of the two.
For UK shoppers, these new colors finally arriving may be a blessing and a curse. US folks had access to them throughout the brand’s Black Friday sale and had the opportunity to grab one at a discount. That sale is now over, so it may be a long old wait until November 2026 before those prices return.
Herman Miller isn’t the only brand at the high-end ergonomic level anymore though. The LiberNovo Omni arguably stole a lot of this brand’s spotlight last year as a new, dynamic, ultra-ergonomic chair. Just to fuel competition, the Omni is also priced around a Grand too, so it seems like a natural rival going forward.
While I sit on the LiberNovo Omni as my daily working and gaming chair, and I certainly see the appeal of these high-end desk chairs and their ergonomics, it’s my duty to tell you that you no longer need to spend this much money for great chair features. The market has undoubtedly expanded since the Embody first arrived, and most gaming chairs will give you decent posture support, comfort, and adjustability for as little as $249 / £249 these days.
