How to Choose Tops
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.
Sizing & Fit
Start with the cut. Shirts and tees here skew relaxed (like the Chef Shirt), while the chef coats are called out as tailored, including a women’s fit option. Two styles include specific sizing notes: the Chef Shirt runs slightly large, and the Men’s Recycled Chef Coat recommends sizing up from your normal size in other TILIT Chef Coats. For everyone else, measure once and use the Size Chart to compare across tops. Care varies by fabric, so check the product page and keep the Care Instructions handy for your wash routine. Building a uniform program for a crew? Keep the assortment tight, pick the silhouettes that match your roles, then standardize colors. When you’re ready to outfit a team and add names or logos where offered, use Wholesale & Team Ordering. Want a women’s-specific assortment from the jump? Start in Women’s Tops.
Collection buying guide
Chef tops isn’t one category in real life. Some stations want a shirt that looks clean from prep through close. Others need a moisture-wicking knit that doesn’t cling when the line heats up. That’s why this page mixes chef shirts, workshirts, tees, and coats.
Pick your fabric first
If you want the original button-front feel, start with the Chef Shirt, an ultra soft 50% cotton/50% polyester blend with underarm vents, a thermometer/pen sleeve pocket, and our signature apron tab.
Need moisture management? The Supply Chef Workshirt is a lightweight, moisture-wicking polyester knit with snaps, a sleeve pocket, and an apron neck tab. When it’s time for a coat, the tailored stretch coats use a 59% Cotton, 37% Polyester, 4% Spandex body with 100% Polyester Stretch side panels and dedicated tool pockets. Want that same tailored build with a different body fabric, the Men’s Recycled Chef Coat is 55% Recycled Hemp, 45% Organic Cotton. Use the table to line up pocketing, ventilation, and fit notes.
