🧺 Care
First washes inside out, cold and separately: denim releases indigo.
No bleach or whitening detergents.
No hot tumble drying: with 98% cotton, it is the chef jacket in the range that shrinks the most.
💡 Tip: it is the only chef jacket in this catalogue that cannot take bleach or aggressive industrial washing, and in a kitchen that matters: a tomato or turmeric stain on light denim won't come out with whitener. If your section stains a lot, dark grey denim is far more forgiving than light blue.
Frequently Asked Questions
