Southside Band Collar Chef Jacket Khaki Short Sleeve

Delivery Information
Price Match
The Southside band collar chef jacket in khaki is a short-sleeve, single-breasted kitchen jacket made from an 80% polyester, 20% cotton blend. The band collar gives it a cleaner, more contemporary look than a traditional double-breasted style, and the khaki colour suits operations that want a less formal or more on-trend front-of-house or open-kitchen presentation.
In busy kitchen environments, heat management is a practical concern. The short sleeves and underarm ventilation panels help promote airflow, making this jacket a reasonable choice for chefs working over hot sections, grills, or in kitchens with limited air conditioning. The lightweight fabric composition supports all-day comfort during longer shifts without the bulk of heavier cotton alternatives.
- Short sleeves with underarm panels aid ventilation in hot working areas
- Band collar offers a contemporary alternative to traditional chef jacket styles
- Pen pocket on the sleeve provides convenient storage without affecting embroidery options
- Single-breasted construction makes it straightforward to put on, remove, and launder
- Khaki colour suits open kitchens, casual dining, and branded uniform schemes
Being single-breasted, the jacket launders more easily than traditional double-breasted styles, which matters in operations cycling uniforms daily. The sleeve pen pocket is a small but useful detail, and the jacket is suitable for embroidery if you're running a branded uniform programme — the cleaner design gives embellishment more room to stand.
This jacket is available in a standard size range and is well suited to smaller brigades, front-line kitchen staff in casual or contemporary dining settings, or as part of a mixed uniform scheme. It is not intended for heavy protective use. If your team requires greater durability or a more traditional cut, a heavier cotton or polycotton alternative may be worth considering.
If you're putting together a full uniform order or need guidance on sizing across a brigade, feel free to get in touch — it's often easier to get it right first time with a quick conversation.
Frequently asked questions
Is this jacket suitable for chefs working on hot sections or grills?
Yes, the short-sleeve cut and underarm ventilation panels make it a practical option for chefs in high-heat areas. It won't replace purpose-built heat-protective garments for extreme environments, but for general hot kitchen use it offers noticeably better airflow than long-sleeve alternatives.
Can this jacket be embroidered with a company logo?
The single-breasted, band collar design works well for embroidery — the clean lines give a logo or name room to sit neatly. The sleeve pen pocket is positioned to avoid interfering with standard chest placement. We'd recommend confirming placement with your embroiderer before bulk ordering.
How does the sizing run, and is it suitable for a full brigade order?
The jacket is available in S, M, L, and XL. For brigade orders, it's worth checking sizing across your team before committing, particularly if staff are between sizes or if you're mixing this style with other jacket cuts. If you're ordering for a full team, get in touch and we can help you work through it.
