Our first cooking shirt made of pure organic cotton! Cuddly soft, in natural white (without optical brighteners) and with fine details a beautiful and practical companion in every kitchen. Simple and elegant with shirt collar and cross stitching in the chest area, our chef shirt convinces with its classic design. Equipped with practical snap button placket for easy on and off, the attached shirt buttons pick up the design of a classic shirt. The two-compartment pocket on the left arm is reinforced with latches and offers space for small kitchen utensils. In a larger pocket at the lower, back hem you'll find storage space protected from heat and splashes, e.g. for your smartphone. The apron strap holder in the neck offers optimal support for the apron and is also an eye-catcher with embroidered cotton bud. Four ventilation holes under each arm ensure a pleasant body climate, which is further enhanced by the very good breathability of the pure organic cotton. By the way: The organic cotton for this cooking shirt comes from our farmer cooperative in Uganda. You can find out more about it here. Let's change workwear.
