A conditioned air delivery system for a vehicle seat includes a conditioned air supply source and a static support structure. A seat is mounted to the static support structure. The seat includes an exterior surface and an air distribution plenum that is in fluid communication with the exterior surface. A seat adjuster is operatively connected between the seat and the static support structure. The seat adjuster is configured to move the seat between multiple positions. An adjustable duct has a fixed duct portion and a movable duct portion that is configured to slide relative to the fixed duct portion as the seat moves between the multiple positions. The adjustable duct is configured to supply air from the conditioned air supply source to the air distribution plenum.
