How to Choose Chef Wear Essentials
Start with fit: Use the fit and sizing column to decide how much room and structure you prefer. Compare construction: Use the Key difference and Material & features columns to compare the working details that separate these options. Confirm sizing: Finish with sizing. Use the linked product page and size chart to confirm the best option before ordering.
Plan the order: Shortlist the styles whose coverage, construction, and closure suit the role, then confirm current colors and availability on their product pages. For a team order, measure each wearer before standardizing on a style; people in the same role may still need different fits or sizes.
Sizes and colors vary by style, and availability can change. Check the linked product pages for current options.
Sizing & Fit
This page mixes coats, shirts, a tee, and a bib apron, so start with the size run in the table, then check measurements on the Size Chart. Fabric drives laundry, too: the Supply chef coats and Supply Chef Workshirt are Polyester Knit, the Work Henley Tee is 100% Cotton, and the Supply Chef Bib Apron is moisture-wicking ripstop polyester fabric. Before you standardize a team uniform, read the Care Instructions and pick the mix that matches how you wash. Need full-arm coverage in the same Supply system? Use Long Sleeve Supply Chef Coat for Men or Long Sleeve Supply Chef Coat for Women. Ordering for a crew starts at Wholesale & Team Ordering.
Collection buying guide
Every kitchen’s “essentials” set looks different. Some crews need the sharp read of a chef coat. Others want a uniform shirt or tee that can run across roles, with the same small details you notice on day one and still use months later.
The main split in this collection is fabric and format. The Supply pieces lean into technical knit: moisture-wicking Polyester Knit on the coats and Polyester Knit Fabric on the workshirt. If you like stretch without spandex, the chef coats use natural weave stretch. If you want a softer, straightforward base layer, the Work Henley is 100% Cotton.
Build the set like you build a station: pick your top layer, add the shirt/tee that makes sense for your team, then lock it in with apron coverage and storage. If you’re issuing uniforms, keep it tight and repeatable, and route everything through Wholesale & Team Ordering. Use the table to match role, fabric, and fit before you commit.
