Product Overview
The Premier Women's Long Sleeve Chef's Jacket is a specialised garment designed to provide a tailored fit for female professionals in the culinary industry. Unlike standard unisex options, this jacket features specific styling around the upper arms, waist, and bust to ensure a professional silhouette without sacrificing range of movement. With its classic mandarin collar and 10-button wrap-over front, it offers a sophisticated appearance that is as suitable for front-of-house demonstrations as it is for the heat of the main kitchen.
Key Features
- Panelled Back Construction: The rear panels are engineered to create a more fitted shape, ensuring the garment follows the natural contours of the body for a sharper appearance.
- Integrated Pen Pocket: Located on the left sleeve, this dedicated pocket provides convenient access to essential writing tools, keeping them away from food preparation surfaces.
- 10-Buttonhole Wrap-Over: This traditional fastening method allows for a secure, double-layered front that provides an extra barrier against heat and splashes.
- Mandarin Collar: A high-standing collar design that offers a clean, contemporary aesthetic while providing essential neck protection.
Design & Performance
Constructed from a balanced blend of 65% polyester and 35% cotton, this jacket is engineered for the rigours of a commercial kitchen. The lightweight fabric ensures breathability during long shifts in high-temperature environments, while the polyester content provides the necessary structural integrity to withstand frequent heavy-duty laundering. The inclusion of SEDEX, Oeko-Tex Standard 100, and REACH certifications confirms that the materials used are safe and responsibly sourced, giving you confidence in the quality and ethical standing of your uniform.
Customisation: Print & Embroidery
To establish a cohesive brand identity, this chef's jacket is suitable for both high-precision embroidery and vibrant printing. Embroidery is the preferred choice for a superior finish, ideal for rendering restaurant logos or individual chef names with a textured, professional feel. For larger, more graphic designs, our printing services provide a sharp and bold result. Each garment is processed by our expert team in Telford, who have been refining their craft since 1976 to ensure every stitch and print meets our exacting standards.
Use Cases
This jacket is ideally suited for female head chefs, sous chefs, and catering staff who require a uniform that reflects their professional status. It is equally at home in high-end restaurant kitchens, busy catering environments, or hospitality education settings where a polished appearance is essential.

Practical Advice
The fitted nature of this garment means it is designed to be more figure-hugging than standard chef jackets. If you prefer a looser fit for layering over a base layer, you may wish to consider moving up one size from your standard measurement. The size range spans from XS (UK 8) to 2XL (UK 18) to accommodate various body types.
Caring for your product
Maintaining the hygiene and appearance of kitchen wear is paramount to professional standards. This garment is specifically designed for industrial laundering at temperatures up to 85°C. This high-temperature threshold is essential for the effective removal of food oils, proteins, and potential bacterial contaminants common in catering environments.
Regular industrial washing at these temperatures ensures that your whites remain bright and that any embedded stains are addressed before they become permanent. Failure to use the recommended heat settings may result in residual staining or a compromise in hygiene standards over time.
