Branch has released special-edition versions of its Ergonomic Chair Pro made in partnership with Sega, featuring Sonic, Genesis, and Dreamcast-inspired aesthetics. The Sonic model uses a mesh back while the Genesis and Dreamcast versions use vegan leather, with details like controller-inspired wheels and a logo-referencing armrest stripe. A WIRED reviewer tested the Dreamcast edition and found assembly straightforward despite the chair's roughly 50-pound weight.
