I have an old rolling desk chair that fits me just perfectly, but
has long since looked just awful. The fabric is worn out,

re-upholstering a chair like that? Where would you go to find the
fabric and padding? I wouldn't even attempt something like a couch
or nice chair, but this is basically the seat, and I just wonder if
it's something an ordinary human being could do without it looking
like a three-year-old did it.

Find a woman. She will direct you to the nearest fabric store.

Do not be embarrased. Very many males are into fabrics these days. Same with
ladies' undergarmets.

Take the woman with you to the store. She will help you select a durable
fabric/leather/vinyl/lace in the latest colors.

Puce and teal, I'm told.
