Price Match

The Southside Oakland is a short sleeve chef's jacket made from a lyocell and cotton blend. Where many workwear jackets default to polyester, this fabric choice prioritises breathability and softness against the skin — a practical consideration for anyone working long shifts in a hot kitchen environment. The white finish and neat collar keep the presentation clean and professional throughout service.

In a working kitchen, comfort has a direct effect on performance. The short sleeve cut and moisture-wicking side panels help manage heat buildup during busy periods, which is particularly relevant in kitchens with limited ventilation or high ambient temperatures. The fabric feels noticeably lighter than standard uniform blends, which makes a difference across a full double shift.

From a practical standpoint, the jacket includes:

  • Sleeve pockets suitable for a thermometer, pen, or tasting spoon
  • Silver single-stud press buttons for quick fastening and removal
  • Moisture-wicking panels at the sides for improved airflow
  • A lyocell-cotton fabric that washes well and holds its shape over regular laundering

This jacket is well suited to chefs and kitchen staff who find heavier polyester uniforms uncomfortable during service, or who work in kitchens where temperature regulation is a persistent issue. It is available in a range of sizes, so if XL is not the right fit for your team, other sizes are stocked. For larger brigades or those requiring embroidered branding, it is worth getting in touch to discuss options before ordering in quantity.

If you are unsure which size or style best suits your team's requirements, we are happy to help you work through the options.

Frequently asked questions

Is this jacket suitable for use in a hot kitchen environment?

Yes — the short sleeve cut and moisture-wicking side panels are specifically useful in high-temperature environments such as those found near grills, fryers, or poorly ventilated prep areas. The lyocell-cotton blend also tends to feel cooler against the skin than a standard polyester chef's jacket, which can make a noticeable difference across a full service.

How does the lyocell-cotton fabric hold up to regular commercial laundering?

Lyocell-cotton blends are generally robust enough for the regular, high-temperature washing that commercial kitchen uniforms require, and the fabric tends to retain its shape well over time. If you are ordering for a full brigade and laundering in bulk, it is worth confirming the care requirements on the label before committing to a large order.

Is this jacket available in other sizes for the rest of our kitchen team?

This listing is for size XL, but the Southside Oakland is available across a range of sizes to suit different members of a brigade. If you need to outfit multiple staff members or want to confirm sizing before ordering in quantity, we would suggest getting in touch with us directly.
