The Boules Master Rex 2026 bumps up to 6D armrests, falling in line with the continuing trend of chair manufacturers finding as many axis of movement as possible. Here, it’s six forms of adjustment that Boulies says are there to support the arms and shoulders whether you’re typing, leaning back or switching between the two. Lumbar support is now built into the backrest with a flexible panel and can be customised, rather than relying on an external cushion the way earlier models did.
Boulies has also revised the tilt mechanism on the 2026 Master Rex, describing it as smoother and more stable than the outgoing version, and extended the recline range to between 95 and 165 degrees, enough to move from an upright working position to something close to fully reclined.
The Master Rex 2026 seat has been reshaped too. Boulies has moved to a round edge cushion design that drops sharp borders in favour of curves it says better follow the body’s shape, and widened the seating area with the aim of easing pressure on the hips and thighs over longer sessions. Upholstery choice carries over from the rest of the Boulies range, with buyers able to pick Ultraflex PU, a soft finish the brand compares to sports car interiors, or a water repellent fabric built for breathability with some resistance to spills.
The Master Rex 2026 is available now in the UK and US. UK pricing is £439.99, though Boulies currently has it listed at £359.99 through a Back to School promotion on its UK site. In the US, it carries a $499.99 list price, discounted to $459.99 under the same promotion on the brand’s US store.
