Delivery Information

Price Match

The Southside Harlem is a short-sleeve chef jacket designed for commercial kitchen environments where comfort during long shifts matters as much as presentation. Made from a recycled polycotton blend — 80% recycled polyester, 20% cotton — it offers a practical balance of durability and breathability, with mesh panels positioned to aid airflow in hot kitchen conditions.

In a busy kitchen, staff clothing takes a lot of punishment. This jacket is built to withstand regular commercial laundering without significant loss of shape or colour, which helps keep uniform standards consistent over time. The zip-up front makes it practical to put on and take off quickly, which is a small but useful consideration during busy service changeovers.

  • Mesh panels support airflow in hot kitchen environments
  • Recycled polycotton construction handles regular commercial laundering well
  • Zip fastening allows quick and easy on/off between service periods
  • Band collar and relaxed fit provide a contemporary, clean uniform appearance
  • Short-sleeve design reduces heat retention during prolonged kitchen work

It is worth noting this listing covers the XL size only. If you are ordering across a team, check that your sizing requirements are covered before placing a single order. The Harlem range sits at the practical, everyday-use end of the workwear spectrum — well suited to operations that need a reliable, presentable uniform without a premium price point.

If you are kitting out a full brigade or want guidance on uniform options across different kitchen roles, the team is happy to help you work through what makes sense for your operation.

Frequently asked questions

Is this jacket suitable for front-of-house as well as kitchen use?

The Harlem's clean white finish and contemporary band collar make it a reasonable choice for open-kitchen or pass-facing roles where presentation matters. That said, the mesh panels are primarily a functional feature aimed at heat management in kitchen environments rather than a purely aesthetic one, so it is worth considering whether that suits your front-of-house look.

How does this jacket hold up to commercial laundry processes?

The polycotton blend is designed to handle regular commercial laundering. Recycled polyester fibres generally hold colour and shape well through repeated wash cycles, though as with any workwear, following the care label guidance will extend the garment's service life.

This listing is for XL only — what if I need multiple sizes for a team order?

The Harlem range is available in multiple sizes, so if you are outfitting a full team it is worth checking which sizes are listed separately before placing individual orders. If you need to order across a range of sizes in one go, it is worth getting in touch so we can make sure everything is available and coordinate the order efficiently.
