Explore AndaSeat fabric gaming chairs for PC gaming, console setups, streaming, home working and everyday desk use. This collection brings together cushioned chairs with woven upholstery, including selected Linen Fabric and mixed-material options across the Kaiser, Phantom, Novis and Luna ranges.
The terms fabric gaming chair, cloth gaming chair and linen gaming chair are often used interchangeably, but the exact upholstery can differ by product. Check the material selected on the product page before ordering, particularly where the same chair is also available in PVC synthetic leather.
Why Choose a Fabric Gaming Chair?
A fabric gaming chair provides a soft, textured surface over a padded seat and backrest. Woven upholstery normally allows more airflow than a closed PVC synthetic leather surface, while retaining the cushioned feel of an upholstered chair. It can also provide a less glossy, more understated appearance for a gaming room, home office or shared workspace.
Fabric is not automatically better or more comfortable for every user. Your preferred surface feel, room temperature, chair dimensions, adjustment requirements and approach to cleaning should all influence the decision.
Fabric, Cloth and Linen: What Do the Names Mean?
Fabric is the broad category used for woven chair upholstery, while cloth is often used as an informal alternative. On selected AndaSeat products, the material option is specifically named Linen Fabric.
Linen Fabric is the product-option name, but fibre construction and care requirements can vary by model. Always use the selected variant and published specification as the definitive description. The Luna RGB is different again, using a combined Leather/Fabric finish rather than the dedicated Linen Fabric option found on selected chairs.
Compare AndaSeat Fabric Gaming Chair Ranges
The upholstery changes the surface feel and care routine, while the chair range determines the size, cushioning, lumbar system, armrests and movement. Compare the complete chair rather than choosing by fabric colour alone.
- Kaiser 4: selected L and XL Linen Fabric models use the Kaiser 4 adjustment platform, including four-level pop-out lumbar support, 5D armrests, a magnetic memory-foam head pillow and a backrest that reclines from 90 to 135 degrees.
- Kaiser 3: selected L and XL Linen Fabric models combine four-way built-in lumbar adjustment, 4D armrests, a magnetic memory-foam head pillow, 155-degree recline and 65 kg/m³ cold-cure foam.
- Phantom 3: a cushioned alternative with an 11 cm, 60 kg/m³ moulded-foam seat, removable lumbar and head pillows, height-adjustable padded armrests and a backrest that reclines from 90 to 155 degrees.
- Novis: the Novis family provides fabric options across selected L and XL models, with specifications and adjustment systems differing between Novis, Novis Max and Novis Ultra.
- Luna: selected L models provide another Linen Fabric option, while Luna RGB uses a mixed Leather/Fabric finish with integrated lighting.
Products, sizes, colours and materials can move in and out of stock separately. Confirm that your selected size and material are available before adding the chair to your basket.
Choose the Right Size and Adjustment System
L and XL are starting points, not universal measurements. Two chairs with the same size label can have different usable seat widths, seat depths, backrest heights and seat-height ranges. Compare the dimensions for the exact model and size with your body and workstation.
- Seat width and depth: check the usable sitting area, including the position of any raised side supports.
- Seat-height range: compare it with your leg length, desk height and preferred foot position.
- Backrest dimensions: check where the lumbar section, shoulder area and head support will meet you.
- Lumbar support: choose between a built-in adjustable system, a fixed contour or a removable cushion according to the model.
- Armrests: compare the available directions of movement with your keyboard, mouse, controller and desk.
- Recline and rocking: check the model-specific movement and locking positions you will actually use.
- Desk clearance: allow for the chair's armrests, wheelbase and reclined backrest in the available space.
Fabric, Mesh or PVC Synthetic Leather?
Choose fabric if you want a softer woven finish and the cushioned feel of an upholstered chair. Choose mesh if airflow through an open seat and backrest is your main material priority. Choose PVC synthetic leather if you prefer a smooth, structured surface that is straightforward to wipe during routine care.
No material is universally best. Fabric normally needs quicker attention when something is spilt, while mesh and PVC have their own feel and maintenance requirements. The frame, cushioning, dimensions and adjustment platform remain just as important as the upholstery.
How to Care for a Fabric Gaming Chair
Remove loose dust using a soft brush or a suitable low-suction vacuum attachment. Blot spills promptly with a clean absorbent cloth rather than rubbing them into the weave. Do not saturate the upholstery or apply harsh cleaning products, and follow the care instructions supplied for the exact chair.
If you are choosing a pale fabric finish, consider where the chair will be used and how easily you can deal with marks. Regular light cleaning is generally preferable to waiting for dirt to become embedded in the material.
AndaSeat Build Quality and UK Support
Upholstery is only the visible layer of a gaming chair. The support system beneath it includes the foam, frame, gas lift, base, armrests and tilt or recline mechanism. AndaSeat publishes these details by model so you can compare the construction rather than relying on a generic comfort claim.
Orders are supported by free standard UK delivery to eligible addresses. Eligible chairs bought directly from andaseat.co.uk include a standard two-year commercial warranty, subject to the warranty terms. Eligible purchases can receive a free extension to a total of five years after the warranty extension application has been accepted and confirmed in writing.

Fabric Gaming Chair FAQs
Is a fabric gaming chair the same as a cloth gaming chair?
Cloth is a general term for woven upholstery. AndaSeat uses the exact option name Linen Fabric on selected products, so check the material shown for the variant you intend to buy.
Is fabric cooler than PVC synthetic leather?
A woven fabric surface normally allows more airflow than a closed PVC surface, but the complete chair design and room conditions also affect how it feels. If maximum airflow is the priority, compare a mesh chair as well.
Does a fabric gaming chair stain easily?
Fabric can absorb liquids more readily than a smooth PVC surface, so spills need prompt attention. Suitability will depend on the colour, weave, environment and how you plan to care for the chair.
Are fabric gaming chairs available in XL?
Selected Kaiser, Phantom and Novis fabric chairs are available in XL configurations. Availability differs by model, colour and material, so check the exact variant and dimensions before ordering.
Can I use a fabric gaming chair for home working?
Yes. AndaSeat fabric chairs can be used for gaming and desk-based work. Choose according to fit, adjustment range and desk compatibility, and change position and take breaks during longer periods of sitting.
How do I make sure I have selected the fabric version?
Check that the material selector and basket line both show Linen Fabric or the stated mixed-material finish before paying. Do not rely on the colour name or main product image alone.
