Level up your chef workwear, with our must-have essentials

With chef wear, the traditional limited options often leave chefs feeling restricted in their expression and comfort while working in the kitchen. By offering a diverse array of styles and collections we cater to the specific needs and preferences of chefs. Gone are the days of settling for basic options. Our range encompasses a variety of designs, colours, and fits to suit every chef’s individual taste and body type.

Moreover, we understand the importance of branding in the culinary industry. That’s why we provide branding options such as Embroidery, and DTF Print for our chefwear styles and collections. Our branding solutions allow chefs and restaurants to showcase their identity and professionalism through their attire.

Chefs no longer have to compromise on style, comfort, or individuality in the kitchen. They can confidently express their personality while maintaining the high standards of professionalism expected in the culinary world.

Long and short-sleeved chef’s jackets are paired with comfortable trousers, suitable for long hours during service. You’ll find different chefwear options to accommodate your budgets. You’ll find matching headwear, and perfect options non-slip and protective toe shoes perfect for demanding kitchen environments.

Chef Jackets

Within our collection of chef jackets, you will find both long and short-sleeve options. These jackets are available in a variety of fastening styles, including those with buttons and zippers. The classic black and white chef’s jackets are constructed to withstand thorough and repeated washing at temperatures up to 85°C, ensuring longevity and durability. When it comes to branding these garments, embroidery is a great option, where the intricate stitching of your logo/design adds a sophisticated touch of class and is highly durable, which means the uniform doesn’t need to be continuously replaced!

Chefs Trousers

Known for their comfort and functionality, chef trousers are an essential part of any chef’s attire. Whether you prefer the classic checked design or a more minimal style, Premier offers a range of options to suit your preferences. The cargo styles are ideal for a more laid-back atmosphere while ensuring durability for the demands of a busy kitchen. Pair them with a branded polo shirt, a comfortable t-shirt, or a professional chef jacket to complete your look and stay comfortable throughout the day. Chef trousers by Portwest, are made for comfort, with a range of styles, and sizes in regular and tall fit.

With these  options, you can focus on creating delicious dishes without compromising on style or comfort.

Aprons

If you’re looking to outfit your entire culinary team with personalised aprons, we offer embroidery and DTF print branding options. Choose from a variety of styles and colours to make your aprons truly unique and reflective of your team’s style. Our branding options are a great way to add a touch of personality to your team’s look and create a cohesive, professional appearance. So why settle for plain, generic aprons when you can have ones that are customised just for your team?

One standout product is the ‘Striped Bib Apron’, a favoured choice among chefs, notably in professional kitchens. This apron complements white and black check jackets and trousers perfectly. Premier and Denny’s both have this option in their ranges 

Polo shirts and T-shirts

From the premier range, you’ll find that their polo shirts and t-shirts are created with the hospitality industry in mind. As alternative options to chef jackets, if you’re after a more comfortable casual yet professional look, the cool checker properties are designed to draw moisture away from the skin, which leaves your team fresh, dry and comfortable throughout service.

Whether you prefer a subtle, sophisticated design or a bold and eye-catching one, our customisable t-shirts can be tailored to match your unique preferences. We understand the importance of comfort, durability, and high-quality materials, which is why we partner with top brands, such as Fruit of the Loom, AWDis, Uneek, Gildan, Russell, and Portwest, to ensure your design will stay vibrant and durable.

Accessories

Not only do chef’s hats complete the traditional chef’s uniform, but they also serve a practical purpose in the kitchen. A chef’s hat is a symbol of professionalism and expertise in the culinary world. For a more modern and stylish look, a skull cap or a chef’s zandana can be a comfortable and functional choice. Thus, having headwear in the hospitality industry is  a hygienic necessity to ensure food safety and maintain a clean working environment. Choose a hat that reflects your team’s personality and professionalism while keeping comfortable.
