Product Overview
The Premier PR903 Chef's Coolchecker long sleeve jacket is a thoughtfully engineered garment designed for the demanding environment of a professional kitchen. This jacket addresses the primary challenge faced by chefs: maintaining a professional appearance while managing the intense heat of service. Constructed from a durable yet breathable poly-cotton blend, it features a specialized mesh back panel that actively works to keep the wearer cool when the kitchen temperature rises.
Key Features
- Coolchecker mesh back panel: This panel provides exceptional moisture management, wicking perspiration away from the skin to ensure the wearer remains fresh throughout a long shift.
- Wrap over fastening with ten self-fabric buttons: Offers a classic, secure aesthetic that provides an extra layer of protection against spills and heat.
- Left sleeve double pen pocket: Strategically placed for quick access to essential tools, allowing for better efficiency during busy service periods.
- Mandarin collar: Provides a sharp, modern silhouette that maintains a professional image while offering comfort around the neck.
Design & Performance
The PR903 is manufactured from a balanced 65% polyester and 35% cotton blend. This lightweight fabric composition ensures the jacket is resilient enough to withstand the rigours of daily commercial use while remaining comfortable for the wearer. The inclusion of the Coolchecker mesh is a performance-focused addition, transforming a traditional piece of hospitality wear into a highly functional tool for temperature regulation.
With a focus on durability, the self-fabric buttons are designed to endure frequent fastening and high-temperature cleaning cycles without losing their integrity. The jacket is built to maintain its shape and professional finish even after repeated industrial laundering.
Customisation: Print & Embroidery
The PR903 is an excellent canvas for customisation, supporting both print and embroidery. For a superior professional appearance, we recommend embroidery for chest logos or staff names. The dense weave of the poly-cotton fabric provides a stable base for intricate needlework, ensuring your branding remains sharp and secure.
For larger, more graphic branding across the back (avoiding the mesh panel) or sleeves, printing is a highly effective option. Our in-house team at our Telford facility, established in 1976, manages the entire process to ensure that your customisation meets our exacting standards for clarity and longevity.
Use Cases
This jacket is ideally suited for executive chefs, sous chefs, and kitchen management within high-volume restaurants, hotels, and catering environments. It is particularly beneficial for staff working in open kitchens where maintaining a pristine professional appearance is as vital as thermal comfort.
Why MyWorkwear
MyWorkwear has been a specialist in technical workwear since 1976. Operating from our base in Telford, we combine decades of industry expertise with modern customisation techniques. We understand that hospitality uniforms must be as hard-working as the people wearing them, which is why we only supply garments that meet our standards for durability and performance.
Practical Advice
The PR903 is available in a size range from XS to 2XL. We recommend checking the specific 'to fit' measurements, as a chef's jacket should allow for adequate movement across the shoulders and arms. If you are layering this over a base layer, consider how much ease you require for comfortable movement during service.
Caring for your product
Maintaining the hygiene and appearance of your chef's jacket is paramount in a food preparation environment. We recommend a domestic wash at 60°C. This temperature is necessary to effectively break down food oils and proteins while ensuring the elimination of bacteria, which is essential for kitchen safety.
For more intensive cleaning, this garment is suitable for industrial laundering at 85°C. This higher temperature is designed for heavy-duty stain removal; however, following the specific temperature guidelines is crucial to prevent premature degradation of the fabric fibres or the mesh panel. Always ensure the garment is fully dry before storage to maintain the fabric's integrity.
