The sizing recommendations above are based on general body proportions and our experience from customer feedback. Individual seating preferences may vary. You are also welcome to visit a Herman Miller showroom to try the original Eames Lounge Chair in person — our chair dimensions closely follow the original proportions and seating height. Please note that the headrest area is primarily designed to support the back of the neck rather than the entire head.
