Hello TGIF community,

We're Leo and Sophia, the founders of TGIF, and we're excited to share our story with you !

Our Journey


Back when we were deeply involved in the world of esports, we noticed how many fellow pro players were struggling with injuries and back pain caused by sitting in regular gaming chairs for hours on end. It was clear that the industry needed a chair designed to support gamers' health and comfort over long gaming sessions. So, we decided to create a chair that would let gamers perform at their best—without compromising their well-being.

Research and Development

To bring our vision to life, we spoke with pro players and streamers, studied their sitting and movement patterns, and consulted with doctors and physical therapists. We also partnered with chair manufacturers to find out what it would take to create a truly ergonomic gaming chair. After extensive research, we discovered two core insights:

1. Ergonomic is Key

The secret sauce is a chair with a top-notch chassis. Manual adjustments just don’t cut it. The chair must move with your body and naturally support your spine. This means that most regular gaming chairs are NOT ergonomic at all.

2. Adaptability

A chair has to fit different body types, weights, and styles. Office chairs like Herman Miller and Steelcase are great for work, but they’re not so hot for hard-core gaming marathons.

As we continue to innovate, our goal is to create high-performance, visually appealing products that elevate the gaming experience. We’re excited to have you with us on this journey as we push the boundaries of gaming comfort and technology.

Thank you for being a part of the TGIF community. Let’s continue to redefine what gaming can be—together.

Warm regards,
Leo and Sophia
