Product Overview
The Dennys Cross Back Apron is a professionally engineered garment designed to provide superior comfort and protection in demanding service environments. Unlike traditional aprons that can cause strain on the neck, this bib apron features a cross-back design that intelligently distributes the weight of the garment across the shoulders. This ergonomic approach is essential for professionals who spend extended hours on their feet, ensuring all-day comfort without sacrificing utility.
Key Features
- Thick webbing cross-back ties distribute weight evenly across the shoulders, significantly reducing neck fatigue during long shifts.
- A large front pocket serves as a practical storage solution for essential equipment like order pads, pens, or hand tools.
- The contrast grey neckband provides a modern, professional aesthetic that helps your team stand out.
- Generous dimensions of 71cm width and 91cm length ensure full coverage, protecting the wearer's clothing from splashes and stains.
Design & Performance
Crafted from a robust poly-cotton blend, this apron is built to withstand the rigours of the catering and hospitality industries. The polyester component provides the structural integrity and crease-resistance needed for a crisp appearance, while the cotton allows the fabric to remain breathable. The fabric itself is of a substantial weight, offering a durable barrier that hangs professionally and maintains its shape even after heavy use.
This garment is also supported by several international certifications. It meets the OEKO-TEX Standard 100 for safety against harmful substances and is manufactured under BSCI, Sedex, and WRAP compliance. This ensures that your workwear is not only high-performing but also ethically produced within a transparent supply chain.
Customisation: Print & Embroidery
The Dennys Cross Back Apron is an excellent canvas for customisation, allowing you to align your team's appearance with your brand identity. We handle all customisation in-house at our Telford facility, drawing on our expertise established in 1976.
For a sophisticated, long-lasting look, we recommend embroidery. It is particularly effective for company logos or staff names, as the dense weave of the poly-cotton fabric provides a stable base for high-definition stitching. For larger, more graphic designs or high-impact promotional branding, our print services offer a bold and vibrant finish that remains sharp and eye-catching.
Use Cases
This apron is ideally suited for chefs, kitchen porters, and front-of-house staff in the hospitality sector. Its durable construction also makes it a practical choice for cleaning staff and craftspeople who require reliable, heavy-duty protection throughout their working day.

Practical Advice
When fitting the cross-back ties, ensure they are adjusted so the bib sits flat against the chest. This ensures that any weight placed in the front pocket does not pull the garment forward, maintaining the ergonomic benefits of the shoulder-strap design. Because this is a poly-cotton blend, it is less prone to shrinking, but we recommend checking the fit before the first wash.
Caring for your product
To ensure your apron continues to perform and look its best, it is designed for a domestic wash at 60°C. This specific temperature is vital for the hospitality industry, as it is high enough to effectively break down grease and oils while ensuring the garment is properly sanitised.
Maintaining this wash cycle will help preserve the fabric's integrity and ensure your custom embroidery or print remains vibrant. We recommend avoiding harsh industrial chemicals that could degrade the polyester fibres or cause the contrast grey webbing to fade prematurely.
