This Labor Day, we’re celebrating the people behind the work with something built for them. Grind is a limited edition release created to celebrate the people who keep America moving. Inspired by the builders, tradesmen, and hardworking Americans, Grind combines premium craftsmanship with rugged design.
Available in two colorways, the satin clear powder coat keeps the steel and welds visible, putting the fabrication and craftsmanship on display, while the orange finish offers a hardworking aesthetic. Both feature a distressed brown seat and custom limited edition Grind badge. Built to work as hard as you do.
Satin Clear Finish Disclaimer: The satin clear powdercoat finish intentionally leaves the steels, welds, and manufacturing marks visible. Variations in color, texture, and surface character are inherent to the fabrication process and make each Grind chair unique. These are not defects, but a reflection of the craftsmanship behind every chair.
⏱ Presale ends September 13th at 11:59:59 PM PST.

The next level of comfort for your Vyper chair. The stock backrest is built right, contoured to the lumbar, and works for most buyers exactly as designed. The Adjustable Backrest is for buyers who want more, taller height range, the ability to lean back up to 10 degrees, and the option to fine-tune the support position to your specific body and the way you actually work. The upgrade for the buyer who lives in the chair.
Reviewers tell us this is what turns the chair from "comfortable" into "I never want to get up." Half of customers buy it during initial chair configuration. The other half buy it after months in the chair, deciding they want to dial in the backrest position even further.
Fits: All Robust Steel Max and Elevated Steel Max models
Pairs well with the Big Boy & Sidekick Attachment
Made in the USA

The chair itself is very nice. While discussing my order with Vyper I was led to believe that it came assembled. I say this because when I asked if the standard components (back rest) could be swapped out for the adjustable one. The answer was no, we used to do that but it takes too long to un-pack, swap out and re-pack. It wasn’t assembled. The assembly instructions confused this 50 year aircraft mechanic. Do this before that…oh wait, don’t do that if this…. Suggest at this price the manual should be clear perhaps a few cents spent on manuals for different configurations; arm rest, big boy, back rest.
I received a chair on Thursday the same day I put it together. The chair is awesome. The parts and the chair are well-made nice thick, nuts and bolts.Very solid Going to buy a few accessories to add onto it, but this is my last chair. Everything else I’ve ever bought have never lasted. Looks like this will be my last shop chair I purchase. Made in the USA 👍🏼
I put the adjustable back rest on the taller seat as I felt like it would be needed more when working at a work bench. I was right not really needed for the shorter seat but makes a nice comfortable work bench seat. Happy that I purchased this add on.
It arrived quickly. So fast in fact i dont have the rest of the stool yet. It was packed really well. The assembly instructions were clear. I have it built waiting for the rest of the stool. It seems heavy-duty. I'm not sure i could break it with an anvil. The color is what i wanted. Looking forward to the whole stool. Good start and introduction to Vyper.
I like that I can adjust the backs angle but I find the adjustment knob a little cumbersome to operate and I wish that it had a spring that you could lean back into. In my opinion this would make the chair even more comfortable.
Now that’s a fully loaded chair! EZ lift, Adjustable backrest, big boy seat attachment, sidekick (powder coated and textured to match the other blue pieces) and the tool tray. Very comfortable and fits all of my needs perfectly!
This chair with adjustable backrest is hands down the best shop chair I’ve had in my 50+ years of shop work. I really enjoy the height adjustment on the back rest.
Very happy I added this adjustable chair back to my Vyper. Much more comfortable. I’m not really sure why they don’t just make them all with this back on them!
I received the back rest last, nothing ever told me it was first to go onto seat in assembly, had to dissasemble to be able to have everything right. Thanks

Absolutely the best shop chair on the market. I use the ones I have bought either in my garage or in my RC airplane hobby room. The adjustable back and arm rests I ordered for my military tribute chair work great and make the chair that much more comfortable and user friendly. Highly recommend these chairs to anyone looking to upgrade to the benchmark of shop chairs.
Thank you Vyper
Everything about this chair says made in the USA! It's pricey but will be the last chair I purchase. For that matter my son, who will get this one day, want wear this one out.
The only thing I would suggest is when I ordered the Tribute Chair and ordered the add on adjustable back I feel that should have replaced the original back. Seems like a waste to have an extra piece that I paid for that will l never be used.
Thanks for making American quality products!
This back rest is taller than the stock rest and being adjustable make a world of difference for those of us with back issues. Thank you for a great product and an honest company with great customer service.
Heavy duty chair. Rolls smooth, the arm rest's and the backrest adjust easily. Good brake stops on it so that it doesn't roll out from under you when trying to sit down. I like the height, as I am using it at a workbench.
This is a big purchase. What if I'm not satisfied?
Everything you need to know before you upgrade. If these don't answer your questions, please reach out to us at sales@vyperindustrial.com or call us at (920) 301 3822
I already have a shop stool, why should I upgrade?
If you're like us, you've more than likely either tipped over from hitting a crack or experience annoying back / knee pain from an uncomfortable stool.
Vyper Chairs (and our entire product line) were strategically designed to help reduce fatigue while working, help prevent from tipping over while rolling, and provide comfort for long working durations.
Plus, Vyper Chairs are made in America! Check out our top selling chair here to learn more.
What is a Vyper limited edition?
A Vyper limited edition is a one-time small-batch run of an existing product (chair, stool, creeper, or cart) in a named colorway, finish, or collaboration design, for example: Ghoul (glow-in-the-dark), Phantom (color-shift chameleon), Sublime (green), Voodoo, Scorch, Joker, Vein, Tribute (military canvas), and Warrior 2.0 (hot pink).
We also have an existing line of collaborations with Vyper x Realtree® and Vyper x Hendrick Motorsports that are always available.
Each limited edition features unique embroidery, custom badges, exclusive stickers and a specific colorway you won't find in the standard lineup. The underlying build (steel frame, casters, foam, mechanisms, capacity, warranty) is identical to the standard product.
Will sold-out Vyper limited editions ever come back?
Once a Vyper limited edition sells out, it does not restock. That's the point, small batch, no second runs. Buyers who miss a drop have to wait for the next release, which will be a different colorway or collaboration entirely.
There are two different styles of limited editions: time based and quantity based.
Some editions we will run where it’s first come first serve (quantity based). Other times we will run a limited colorway for a certain amount of time (time based). If you miss the cutoff, there’s no going back.
Occasionally we will re-release a previously sold-out edition as a special return (for example, "Scorch, Joker, Volt, Shocker and Viola are back" was a one-time encore drop, called out as a last-chance opportunity). But the default policy is one-and-done. If you see a limited edition in stock and you want it, lock it in.
Are limited edition Vyper chairs different from regular chairs in build quality?
No. The build is identical to the standard product. A limited edition Robust Steel Max is the same Robust Steel Max underneath: same powder-coated steel frame, same 3.5" industrial foam, same lumbar-support backrest, same 400 lb capacity, same 5-caster anti-tip base, same lifetime warranty on the frame.
What changes is the finish: custom powdercoat color, custom embroidery, custom badges, and specific accent colors on hardware and stitching. You're getting the same chair Chip Foose, Jay Leno and Gas Monkey Garage use, just in a finish that won't be made again.
Are limited edition Vyper chairs different from regular chairs in build quality?
The fastest way is signing up for the Vyper email list and following @vyperchair on Instagram and YouTube, limited editions are announced usually 1 to 2 weeks before the drop with the exact date and time. Most drops go live at 9 AM CST on the announced date.
High-demand drops frequently sell out within hours. Customers on the email list get the announcement first, which is the difference between getting the chair and not.
Can I add custom accessories to a limited edition chair and do they ship with the same accessories as the standard model?
Yes. Limited edition chairs are compatible with the full Vyper accessory lineup (armrests, backrests, EZ-Lift, Big Boy attachment, tool trays, footrails, Sidekick). Many limited editions offer matching-color accessories during the drop window; once the drop closes, accessories may only be available in standard colors.
Gear worth your workspace.
Build your dream garage with chairs, carts, creepers and fans that are guaranteed to outlast anything else in your shop.
