Those big comfy chairs are a waste of money.
Go with one of the lighter chairs that is naturally comfortable and isn't full of padding.
Well the thing is that my back doesnt get tired, after a lot of use the padding of the seat collapses and my butt starts hurting, so those fancy mesh chairs all seem to have a tiny cushion this concerns me since as I said, the butt is the issue not the back.

Try a standing/treadmill desk. You can build your own for pretty cheap. If money's not an issue, some nice ones can be adjusted on the fly between sitting and standing. No doubt a better investment than the comfiest of chairs. If you can't do that, then at least take frequent breaks to move around for a few mins.
~the more you know~:
Yeah I'm aware of them and im strongly considering them, but my current chair is too worn, the cushion is gone and the faux leather is peeling off the armrests so I need a new chair regardless
I'm using Herman Miller Embody myself for like 3-4 years now, would recommend. Aeron has a new version now, Mirra is good as well (if we talking Herman Miller). Besides that there are few good options as well, and not that expensive.
However my best recommendation: go sit in the chair yourself if you have the option, then buy it
And yeah, MESH > Leather /material ALL DAY LONG. Comfort (especially when it comes to ventilation when its hot) is way superior.

Does nobody play on stars on LP anymore? Pretty awful rb changes have happened and reactions are pretty underwhelming even in 2+2
Well, people did ;p
I moved like 10 players from lp.net to PartyPoker this month, you now get weekly rb up to 40% + 10% extra for VIPS and extra priv liquidpoker offer: check LiquidPoker priv offer here. So yeah, ppl are running from PS, all I can say.
And they know it. PokerStars offered a promotional cut % for 3 months to affiliates. This is the first promo for affiliates they offered since 4-5 years, so you can see they know what's going on.

@OP: I use the most simple chair type (like this one) without any extras - this is best for your back long term.

Thats why I've always laughed at those idiotic "Gamer chairs" mimicing racing seats, they even have the holes for the belts lol, racing seats are quite uncomfortable since are designed to hold you in place not massage your butt.
There are some nice videos about how to sit properly on a chair. It's good you see them before buying one. Feeling comfortable does not mean you are doing the best for your back.
This is what I bought recently. Changed a couple things since I took that pic. Added a second keyboard/mouse at the top since I'm pretty tall and the Tao Te Ching was replaced by some black wooden blocks to get my keyboard leveled with the mousepad . Also have an anti fatigue mat I walk on. It takes about 5 seconds to adjust between sitting and standing.
fuck I should just sell some of my Pokemon cards, if no one stakes that is what I will have to do - lostaccount
