Care Instructions
1. Washing Guidelines (By Garment Type)
Tops (Chef Coats & Shirts)
-
-
Spot-treat deep stains with a Tide pen or gentle stain remover before washing.
Wash in cold water to minimize shrinkage and color fading. - Use a mild, enzyme-based detergent to break down food oils without damaging the fabric.
- Turn garments inside out before washing to protect logos, buttons, and surface details.
- Tumble dry on low heat, or shake out after washing and hang dry to help minimize wrinkles.
-
Spot-treat deep stains with a Tide pen or gentle stain remover before washing.
Bottoms (Pants, Jumpsuits, Overalls)
-
- Machine wash on cold with similar colors; separate darks and lights.
- Tumble dry on low heat, or shake out after washing and hang dry to help minimize wrinkles.
- Fasten zippers and buttons to prevent snags or abrasion.
- Avoid overloading the washer to reduce friction and preserve fabric quality.
Aprons
-
- Remove any leather components before machine washing.
- Shake off debris and pre-treat stains with a spot treater.
- For waxed aprons, wipe clean with mild soap and a soft sponge. Machine wash to remove odor.
- Tie or secure apron straps (or place in a laundry bag) to prevent tangling.
- Use a gentle cycle for the first wash to help preserve color.
- Hang dry or tumble dry on low/cool air.
2. Temperature & Cycle Recommendations
- Cold is preferred; hot water may cause shrinkage or set stains.
- Use gentle/delicate cycles, especially for printed or embroidered garments.
- Always follow the specific instructions on each garment’s care label.
3. Drying Instructions
- Air dry or line dry when possible to maintain fit and reduce wear.
- If using a dryer, select low heat only.
- Remove items promptly to prevent wrinkles.
4. Stain Treatment Tips
- Pre-treat stains (oil, tomato, coffee, etc.) as soon as possible with mild stain remover or gentle dish soap.
- For tougher stains, allow garments to soak briefly before washing.
- Avoid chlorine bleach on colored fabrics to prevent fading or fiber damage.
5. Fabric Protection & Handling
- Turn garments inside out to protect prints, embroidery, and color depth.
- Avoid harsh detergents or bleach, which can weaken fibers and fade fabrics.
- Skip fabric softeners on workwear, they can leave residue and reduce breathability.
6. Ironing & Finishing
- Use medium heat when ironing.
- Do not iron directly over logos or embroidery, turn garments inside out or use a pressing cloth.
- For heavier fabrics (like denim aprons or pants), use a steam setting for best results.
7. Storage & Longevity Tips
- Store garments completely dry to prevent mildew or odors.
- Hang tops and aprons to maintain shape; fold bottoms as needed.
- Repair loose threads or stitching early to extend the garment’s lifespan.
8. Safety & Sanitation Notes
- For garments exposed to heavy food residue, wash soon after use to prevent bacteria buildup.
- Certain fabrics may allow sanitize-cycle settings; always check the care label first.

Why the Chef Shirt Works: Venting, Apron Tab, and Easy Utility
The Chef Shirt is TILIT’s original professional chef workshirt, built as a modern alternative to a traditional chef jacket and worn by hospitality teams for over a decade. It’s a relaxed, unisex fit with a full button-front and a collarless design, finished with matte-finish buttons plus a branded woven rectangle detail and an interior TILIT clench tag.
For service, the details are straightforward: underarm vents for added breathability, a sleeve pocket sized for a thermometer or pen, and TILIT’s signature apron tab to secure apron straps and help reduce neck irritation during long shifts. Colors include White French Twill, Black, and Gray, with sizes XS - 4XL. Note on fit: this style runs slightly large, so sizing down is recommended if you’re between sizes.
If you’re comparing kitchen shirts across the lineup, start in chef shirts for men, then narrow to a color set like black chef shirts or white chef shirts for a tighter uniform program.
Frequently Asked Questions About chef shirts
What fabric is the Chef Shirt made from?
Per TILIT’s cut sheet, the shell is 100% Cotton French Twill, with contrast/combo chambray accents in 100% Cotton. On the product page, the White colorway is listed as “White French Twill,” alongside Black and Gray.
How does the fit run, and what sizes are available?
This is a relaxed, unisex fit designed for ease of movement during service, and it runs slightly large. If you’re between sizes or unsure, TILIT recommends sizing down. Sizes run from XS through 4XL across the listed colors.
What storage does the Chef Shirt have for tools?
There’s a sleeve pocket sized for a thermometer or pen, so small tools stay on-body through service. It’s a simple setup that keeps essentials in one consistent place, without adding extra bulk to the front of the shirt.
What ventilation features are built in?
The Chef Shirt includes underarm vents for added breathability. They’re called out as underarm ventilation on the product page, intended to improve airflow and comfort in hot kitchen environments while keeping the shirt’s clean, workshirt-style profile.
Can the Chef Shirt be customized with embroidery?
Yes. The Chef Shirt is available with custom name and logo embroidery. Custom chef shirts require 7 - 10 business days for processing, and all embroidered products are final sale, so it’s worth confirming spelling and placement details before submitting.
