SHIFT chef jacket with Coolmax® back: recycled twill at the front, technical fabric at the back
The SHIFT combines two different fabrics in one garment: a front in 190 g/m² Soft Touch twill with 65% GRS-certified recycled polyester and a back in 135 g/m² Coolmax®. Body and protection where it splashes, ventilation and lightness where you sweat.

How does it differ from 405211W?
405211W is the same SHIFT jacket in a women's pattern, sizes XS to 2XL.
What is the collar button for?
To attach the apron bib so that it doesn't pull on the collar during the shift.
Can the sleeves be rolled up?
