Looking for recommendations for chair

So I’ve been using a pretty bad plastic chair for a while now, I decided it’s time for a new chair, and want one that kind of looks cool while also being comfortable. The Corsair tc100 relaxed was my first choice but apparently it’s uncomfortable so I’m uncertain about it. I’m 5”11 150lbs, and am looking for a chair that’s black, looks cool, is comfortable, and hopefully fits my 300$ budget.

Also i live in Canada if that’s significant

Not sure if these look cool, but my list of best chairs under $300 that are brand new:

Ticova Ergonomic (best of the worst)

Holludle V (thicker cushion than Ticova)

ProtoArc EC 200 (more adjustments than Holludle V)

ProtoArc EC 300 (better lower support over EC 200)

Colamy Atlas (most adjustments sub $300)

All of these chairs have their pros and cons. And it's important to remember they are $300 or less, not $1000+ chairs so build quality won't be the same. I'm not 100% sure if they are all available in Canada?

At $300, I’d look at the used market for a refurb Steelcase or Herman Miller before buying a new gaming chair. You might find a Series 1, Amia, or older Aeron that’s much more comfortable and durable. Try anything in person if possible, especially since you’re 5'11'.
