i have the same button up cook shirts but from chefworks. i love them. theyre super roomy, they have a nice "clean" look plus theyre very inexpensive. they feel more breatheable than traditional chef coats.my local restaurant supply store carries a regular version for only $8.50 and the same but with a ventilated back for $11.00. great deals.I wear the cheap single breasted, shorted sleeved "dish washer" jackets from chef wear. They are way cheaper and more comfortable then the double breasted chefs jackets. What ever you get I would suggest getting a high cotton content.
why doesnt Under Armour just make chef coats?
I want to bump this thread.... Can anybody suggest a good breathable coat for under $40? Its insanely hot here in our Louisiana kitchens this time of the year and we also seem to have nonstop AC issues. Right now half of my coats are just too thick which has left me with a small rotation of cook shirts. In the past Ive used Chef Wear 3 star and 4 star coats, regular Uncommon Threads, 5 star fundamentals and Chef Works coats and theyre all too thick for my tastes.
try happy chef's cook cool coats, they work good for me, with a under armour shirt underneath
