FAQs

What makes the Coolmax fabric special?

Coolmax is a special type of polyester fiber engineered to be highly breathable and to wick moisture away from the body, helping the wearer stay cool, dry, and comfortable.

Is this jacket suitable for both men and women?

Yes, the jacket is designed as unisex and is suitable for both male and female chefs.

How many pockets does this jacket have?

The jacket features two pen pockets and an additional pocket on the sleeve for convenient storage.

What is the fabric weight of this chef jacket?

The fabric has a weight of 200gsm (grams per square meter), offering a durable yet comfortable feel.

What certifications does the material have?

The jacket is made from materials certified by Amfori, Better Cotton Initiative, BSCI, GRS Certified, and Oeko-Tex Standard 100.

Can I wear this jacket in very hot kitchens?

Yes, the Coolmax fabric is specifically designed to enhance breathability and moisture management, making it suitable for hot kitchen environments.

How should I best care for the white color?

For best results with the white color, wash promptly after use, avoid bleach, and use a mild detergent. Iron on a low setting if needed.

Troubleshooting

Jacket feels less breathable over time.

Ensure you are following the recommended washing instructions. Residue from fabric softeners or harsh detergents can impede the Coolmax fabric's performance. Consider a fabric-safe detergent specifically designed for performance wear.

Stud fasteners are difficult to close or open.

Check the studs for any debris or damage. If they feel stiff, try gently working them back and forth a few times. Ensure the fabric around the studs is not bunched up when fastening.

Fabric appears discolored or worn.

This may be due to improper washing or excessive exposure to harsh chemicals or sunlight. Adhere strictly to the care label, wash inside out, and avoid high heat drying or prolonged direct sun exposure.

Care Instructions:

  • Washing: Machine washable at a moderate temperature (refer to the garment's care label for precise instructions). Avoid using harsh detergents or bleach, as these can degrade the fabric's performance.

  • Stain Removal: For tough stains, pre-treat the affected area before washing. Due to the white color, prompt cleaning of spills is recommended.
