Know before you buy
The wraparound back is specifically engineered to provide ergonomic support by cradling your body. It offers a more enclosed, supportive feel compared to standard flat-backed dining chairs, making it ideal for longer dinner conversations.
The exposed casters feature a visible, industrial-inspired design that highlights the chair's mobility, while the hidden casters are tucked away for a cleaner, more minimalist silhouette. Both options provide the same smooth gliding functionality across your flooring.
Yes, the LaPorte chair is highly customizable. You can select from a variety of materials including performance fabrics like Samson and Splendid, durable PVC options, premium Zenith leather, or Ultrasuede HP to suit your specific lifestyle needs.
With a height of 30 inches, these chairs are designed to fit under most standard dining tables. However, we recommend measuring the clearance from your table's apron to the floor to ensure the armrests slide underneath if that is your preference.
The LaPorte dining chair is designed and crafted in the USA by Elite Modern, ensuring high-quality construction and attention to detail in every piece.
