Chef jacket with concealed zip: opens and closes in a second

🧺 Care
Zip it up before washing: that way it won't snag or distort the placket covering it.
The 67/33 blend at 195 g/m² withstands frequent high-temperature washes.
White tolerates diluted bleach on grease; colours do not, they will fade.
💡 Tip: the five colours are not an aesthetic whim: in large kitchens they are used to tell stations or shifts apart at a glance. And watch the sizing, which here is numeric from 46 to 64: an M is roughly a 48-50 and an XL a 54-56.
