The Chef Works Unisex Contrast Shirt is a practical workwear shirt designed for kitchen and front-of-house environments where staff are on their feet for long periods. Made from a polycotton blend, it combines the durability of polyester with the breathability of cotton, making it a sensible choice for day-to-day kitchen use.

The most notable feature is the Cool Vent panelling positioned under the arms and along the sides of the body. In a working kitchen, heat builds quickly, and these panels are designed to allow air circulation where the body generates most warmth, helping staff remain comfortable throughout a shift without compromising the smart appearance expected in a professional environment.

  • Cool Vent panels under the arms and side body for temperature regulation during service
  • Polycotton construction for durability and everyday wash performance
  • Left chest pocket for practical on-shift storage
  • Pearl buttons for a cleaner, more finished appearance
  • Unisex cut suitable for mixed kitchen and front-of-house teams

The unisex fit makes it straightforward to manage as part of a team uniform across mixed kitchen brigades or floor staff, reducing the complexity of ordering separate styles. The polycotton fabric holds up well to regular laundering at commercial temperatures, which matters in any environment with strict hygiene standards.

This shirt is well suited to casual dining, café environments, front-of-house teams, and kitchen staff who require a smart-casual uniform rather than a full chef's jacket. It is not designed to replace chef's whites or provide the protection of a full brigade jacket in high-heat cooking environments.

Available in sizes XS, S, M, L and XL.

Frequently asked questions

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

The Cool Vent panels help manage comfort during service, but this shirt is designed for general kitchen and front-of-house use rather than high-heat cooking positions. If staff are working directly over ranges or fryers, a full chef's jacket with appropriate fabric protection would be more suitable.

How does the polycotton fabric hold up to regular commercial washing?

Polycotton is a practical choice for workwear because it resists shrinking and holds its shape better than pure cotton under frequent washing. It performs reliably in commercial laundry cycles, though we recommend following the garment's care label to maintain the fabric and colour over time.

Is the unisex fit appropriate for both male and female kitchen staff?

The unisex cut is designed to work across mixed teams and simplifies uniform ordering, which is useful when managing staffing across a brigade or floor team. That said, fit preferences vary, so it's worth checking the size guide or requesting samples if you're outfitting a larger group.
