Product Overview
The Premier District waxed-look denim bib apron is a sophisticated solution for hospitality environments that demand both style and substance. Drawing design inspiration from classic denim garments, this apron provides a modern, industrial-chic aesthetic that aligns perfectly with contemporary restaurant and bar interiors. Beyond its visual appeal, the fabric is treated with an acrylic coating to provide a water-repellent finish, ensuring your staff remain protected and presentable throughout a demanding shift.
Key Features
- Durable Waxed-Look Finish: The acrylic coating gives the appearance of waxed cotton, providing a sturdy barrier against spills and splashes.
- Oversized Jeans-Style Pocket: Designed with practical utility in mind, the large patch pocket is specifically sized to accommodate tablet devices, making it ideal for modern order-taking.
- Adjustable Buckle Neckband: The brace-style buckle and adjuster allow for a personalised fit, ensuring comfort for various heights and builds.
- Reinforced Metal Eyelets: The 100cm contrast colour ties are secured through metal eyelets, providing additional strength at high-stress points to prevent tearing.
- Authentic Stitching Detail: Contrast jeans stitching and rivet details elevate the garment's appearance, moving away from standard utility wear toward a high-end uniform look.
Design & Performance
Constructed from 100% cotton denim, this apron offers the natural breathability and comfort of cotton while benefiting from a substantial, heavy-duty feel. The addition of an acrylic coating is the technical highlight; it creates a water-repellent surface that allows liquids to bead off rather than soaking into the fibres. This is particularly beneficial in fast-paced catering environments where spillages are common. The dimensions—86cm in length and 72cm in width—provide ample coverage, while the 100cm ties offer flexibility for different tying styles.
Customisation: Print & Embroidery
This substantial denim fabric is an ideal canvas for customisation. Embroidery is highly recommended for those seeking a professional and permanent branding solution; the fabric's weight provides a stable base for intricate logos and staff names, ensuring they do not pucker or distort. If your branding requires a larger, more impactful graphic, our high-quality printing processes are equally effective. Our in-house production team in Telford has been managing these processes since 1976, ensuring your business identity is represented with precision.
Use Cases
This apron is perfectly suited for front-of-house staff in artisanal coffee shops, craft breweries, and modern bistros. The industrial aesthetic and tablet-sized pocket make it a functional choice for waitstaff and bartenders who need to carry digital equipment. It is also an excellent choice for outdoor dining staff who require the added protection of a water-repellent finish.

Practical Advice
As this is a one-size garment, the adjustable neckband is the key to ensuring comfort. We suggest adjusting the buckle so the bib sits comfortably across the chest, which helps distribute the weight of any items stored in the oversized pocket. The 100cm ties are long enough to be tied at either the front or the back, depending on your preferred look and security.
Caring for your product
To maintain the performance and aesthetic of the waxed-look coating, it is essential to follow the specific care instructions provided. A domestic wash at 60°C is recommended for this garment. Washing at this temperature is necessary to ensure the removal of grease and food-based bacteria, which is a fundamental requirement in professional kitchen and service environments.
Failure to wash at the correct temperature may lead to the accumulation of organic matter within the denim fibres, which can degrade the acrylic coating over time. Always ensure the apron is thoroughly dried before storage to maintain the integrity of the water-repellent finish and to prevent the metal eyelets and rivets from being affected by prolonged moisture.
