FAQs
Is the fabric fire-resistant?
The shirt is made from polyester, which is not flame-resistant. Always exercise caution around open flames.
Can I tumble dry this shirt?
It is generally safer to air dry to protect the technical features, but you may use a low-temperature tumble dry if necessary.
Is the fit gender-specific?
This is a unisex design, providing a regular fit suitable for both men and women.
What does the 155gsm weight mean?
This refers to grams per square meter, indicating that the fabric is lightweight and optimized for breathability rather than heavy-duty thermal insulation.
Are the certifications like Oeko-Tex important?
Yes, Oeko-Tex Standard 100 certification confirms that the garment has been tested for harmful substances, ensuring it is safe for direct skin contact.
Troubleshooting
Fabric feels damp after long shifts
Ensure that the shirt is not being washed with heavy fabric softeners, which can clog the moisture-wicking fibers.
Press studs feel loose
Check the press stud attachments after heavy washes; if they become loose, ensure they are correctly snapped shut before wearing to prevent accidental opening.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your Premier Coolchecker Chef Shirt, follow these maintenance guidelines:
- Washing: Machine wash at a temperature appropriate for synthetic fabrics (usually up to 60°C). Avoid harsh bleaching agents that can degrade the moisture-wicking properties.
- Drying: Air drying is recommended to maintain the integrity of the mesh panel and technical weave. If using a machine, select a low-heat setting.
- Ironing: Use a cool iron. Avoid pressing directly on the press stud fasteners or the mesh panel to prevent melting or warping.
- Compatibility: This is a unisex design suitable for a variety of body types. Refer to the size guide to match your measurements, as the regular fit is designed to accommodate movement without being overly baggy.
