Chef Utility Shirts

Some occupations might require the wearing of a uniform, and if they do, it’s usually to make their personnel stand out and be noticeable. The service industry for example, warrants its personnel to wear their uniform each and every time they are on duty. Consequently, the police, military and navy forces also wear uniforms when they are on duty. Taking an in depth look at the service industry, we often see different teams of personnel making use of different uniforms; a good example is a chef’s uniform.

Chefs are important personnel in the service industry as without them, little or no food would be cooked in most hotels and restaurants. Being so important and valued, chefs need to be distinguished in a particular way. Some hotels distinguish their chefs by using name tags, while others achieve this through a uniform. They buy chef uniforms not only to distinguish them from other personnel around them, but also to show that chefs are specialized in what they do.

Another benefit of buying chef shirts is that they provide a level of protection. They protect them from radiant heat emanating from cookers, food stains from cooking, and even to help keep their hands clean while working. Moreover, as a kitchen is often a messy place, chef coats protect chefs from oils, dirt and grime quite effectively.

A Little History

Tracing their origin back in the 19th century, chef shirts have been redesigned over the years to make them much more modern in this day and age. Most chef shirts all over the world harbor similar structural designs as this profession is well-established all over the world. Chef shirts come in various designs, colors and styles, to make it easy to find what you need.

For example, some chef shirts might have breast pockets embedded on them while some may lack this feature – it all depends on the designer or the specifications made to the designers. Consequently, some chef shirts might be colored on the collar while some might have their collars in plain form. Additionally, the button structure on the chef shirts might vary. This is where some of these shirts have buttons on their helm while some actually don’t have any. Last but not least, the patterns of some chef shirts vary from restaurant to restaurant and from jurisdiction to jurisdiction; some of the chef shirts might have a stripped pattern while others might have a solid pattern on their surface.

You will notice, in most exclusive hotels specifically, chefs wear different colored shirts; the main reason for this is that chefs in hotels vary in terms of their rank. So, the head chef is often seen wearing a different colored shirt from the rest. Although the chef profession goes with ranks, the hotel management tends to keep the chef shirt differences subtle for uniformity purposes.

Buying a Chef Shirt

As an employer, you have to keep in mind that these are shirts your employees will have to wear all day long and throughout the year. With this in mind, you have to have durability and sustainability in mind. When it comes to durability, chef shirts made from cotton are the best, so this is an option to look for. Then you should also consider the style, as you can choose from quite a few options. Finally, don’t forget the color – this is very important as you may not always want your chefs to wear white. You will have plenty of other color options too, so consider choosing a color that will work for you.
