Product Overview
The Premier Utility 2.0 chore jacket is a sophisticated modern take on a classic workwear silhouette. Engineered to meet the demands of the modern hospitality and service sectors, this jacket bridges the gap between rugged functionality and high-street aesthetic. It is a versatile garment designed for those who require a professional appearance without sacrificing the practicality needed for a hands-on working day.
Constructed from a robust canvas fabric, this jacket is as resilient as it is stylish. It features a thoughtful unisex fit and a clean, self-coloured button fastening that maintains a streamlined look. With a focus on sustainability and longevity, it incorporates recycled materials and a specialized finish to ensure it remains a core part of your uniform for the long term.
Key Features
- Fadeless Finish: The fabric is treated to lock in colour, ensuring the jacket retains its depth and vibrancy for at least 20 washes, keeping your team looking sharp.
- Triple Pocket Configuration: Features one mitred patch pocket on the right chest and two lower mitred pockets, providing ample storage for essential tools or mobile devices.
- Twin-Needle Stitching: Reinforced stitching throughout the garment ensures it can withstand the rigours of a busy shift without failing at the seams.
- Recycled Polyester Content: Incorporates certified recycled polyester, making it an excellent choice for businesses looking to reduce their environmental footprint.
- Hanging Loop: An internal neckband loop allows for easy storage in locker rooms or kitchens, preventing the jacket from becoming creased when not in wear.
Design & Performance
The performance of the Utility 2.0 chore jacket lies in its medium-weight canvas construction. Composed of 60% cotton and 40% recycled polyester, the fabric offers the breathable comfort of natural fibres alongside the durability and crease-resistance of synthetic materials. The canvas weave provides a substantial feel and a textured finish that is synonymous with high-quality workwear.
The set-in sleeves and straight hemline offer a structured profile that suits a wide range of body types. Furthermore, the sleeves are designed to be easily rolled back, a practical feature for chefs or baristas working in heat-intensive environments. This design choice ensures that the garment remains functional even when the pressure in the kitchen or front-of-house rises.
Customisation: Print & Embroidery
The flat, stable surface of the canvas fabric makes the Utility 2.0 chore jacket an ideal canvas for branding. For a high-end, traditional aesthetic, we recommend embroidery. Our Telford-based team can apply intricate logos and staff names with precision, providing a textured, durable finish that complements the jacket's heritage feel.
If your branding requires larger, more vibrant graphics—perhaps for a street food venture or a modern café—film transfer or screen printing is highly effective. The fabric's weave allows for excellent ink adhesion. Having been in the business since 1976, MyWorkwear ensures that every customisation is handled with the expertise required to maintain the garment's integrity.
Use Cases
This jacket is perfectly suited for hospitality environments, particularly open kitchens where chefs are visible to the public. Its clean lines make it equally appropriate for front-of-house staff, baristas, and artisanal retail employees. It is also an excellent choice for street food crews who need a uniform that looks as good as it performs under the scrutiny of the public eye.

Practical Advice
This jacket features a unisex fit, which is generally more generous. If you are between sizes or prefer a more tailored look, you may wish to consider sizing down. It is designed to be layered comfortably over a t-shirt or polo shirt, making it a versatile outer layer for year-round use.
Caring for your product
To maintain the structural integrity and the 'fadeless' properties of this jacket, it is essential to follow the recommended care routine. Proper maintenance ensures that your branding remains clear and the fabric does not lose its shape.
The garment is suitable for a standard domestic wash at 60°C, which is effective for removing oils and stains common in hospitality. For industrial environments, it can withstand temperatures up to 85°C. However, you must avoid using bleach, as this will strip the colour and weaken the fibres of the recycled polyester.
Do not tumble dry this jacket. Air drying is the best method to preserve the fit and prevent any printed logos from cracking or peeling. If required, use a medium heat setting when ironing to press out any creases without damaging the synthetic components of the fabric. Dry cleaning should be avoided to prevent chemical damage to the custom branding.
