Chef Works Unisex Reversible Waist Apron, Black

The quality of these aprons is the best I have found in over 10+ years of serving! I really like the material and the straps are really strong feeling. They are also reversible, and there is a perfect little pocket for your pens.

Very good quality Apron. I wear this daily and it’s has held up well! Definitely recommend!

Perfect sized pockets to hold all that I need. I love that it's reversible.

After I received this apron, I went o work at my restaurant and showed it off to everyone! Its reversible so you can flip it over if one side gets dirty, it fits a server's book (Sometimes i have 3 to 4 in the same pocket), the pen pocket is awesome and keeps your pen upright for easy grabbing, the fabric and stitching are better quality than most aprons and things can more easily wipe off, and the straps are thicker and long so are more comfortable and can be wrapped around to the front (even if your are more fuller figured). The only down side is when I reverse it, the pen pocket is on my left and I'm a righty. I wish they constructed it so the pen pocket is always on the right. Definitely worth the investment!

I've bought several of these over a few years. Overall, quite satisfied. The stitching between compartments should be reinforced, that is always the first thing to go. I like things organized and having pens/lighter/wine key/whatever floating around in the bottom like a big purse is not ideal. Reversible means it hardly ever needs to be washed I've noticed and it seems fairly stain repellent. While you should obviously keep it clean on both sides, if you need to flip it around because there's a blemish on one side by the time the front gets dirty again the back ends up passable just from rubbing on your pants. This is doubly helpful since tossing it in the washer undoubtedly makes the stitching fail faster. I also remove the stitching for the pen holder. A rather dumb design choice on a reversible apron.

This is best apron I've ever bought and I've been serving for over a decade. The material is very thick and durable. I love the way they segregated the 4 pockets. Two small pockets perfect for straws/ calculator/ lighter/ wine opener and a bunch of pens. Then two large pockets where I fit my ticket book in the middle and my ticket presenters on the side. I usually only use the one side of the reversable apron as I like my pens on the right side. But it gives a nice options for right hand/ left hand preferablity. I usually tear through my aprons as I work so many hours but this one has not show even an inkling of wear yet. I've washed it a bunch of times and it also spot cleans easily with a dish towel. The strings are a nice length and it rolls up easily still holding everything inside for the next shift.

Update to review: since I love the shape of this apron and the size of the pockets (one of which was completely useless because of a cell phone sized hole), I figured I would buy another and this one had to be better, no hole in an entire apron pocket to make it useless, right? WRONG. What idiot went to work for the second time with a brand new apron, thinking everything would be okay? Me. I'm that idiot for buying this apron a second time thinking it wouldn't have the same defect as the first time. Bigger hole this time. Don't buy this apron unless you want to start your shift off on a bad note. Better yet, sew your old apron because that's what you would have to do to this one for it to function. Original review : Wore it my first day, had a hole in one of the main pockets. My phone fell right out of my apron. Had to only use two of the pockets all shift. Like the fabric, so I might sew it and keep it, but can't believe it's broken before even working a shift

Great apron, but unfortunately the first night I used this as part of our new November uniform, I discovered a large hole at the seam of the pocket. Large enough for my wine key and pens to fall out of. Overall, loved the format of the apron, pockets, and such. Just check before you use it at work. lol

Durable material, love the pockets and it being reversable. Faired very well through first wash. I laid flat to dry, so I dont know how it would do through dryer. Im a plus size lady and the length of the ties are long enough to wrap around my waist and tie in front easily. Very happy with this waist apron.

I loved the reversible feature on this apron as it was a quick flip if I sustained any stains on it during my shift. Lots of secure pockets for storing my note pad, beer opener, pens, phone and mint candies.

The apron is amazing, the quality is good and the fact that is reversible is so practical. My only complaint would be the size of the apron, which is just a bit to big for my waist, it ends up sliding off due to a ton of walking and the heavy change with the combination of my small size. It would've been nice to be able to pick a smaller size, since I have another apron that is a bit smaller and it sits perfectly. Also to my taste I find the pockets are a bit too deep, which is a good thing but also makes things hard because I need to dig deep into my apron to get something. But these complaints are only due to my size and it would've been nice to have a choice for something a bit smaller. Or else the product is amazing and I love it.

It was good while it lasted, love that it’s reversible. But the pockets ripped open at work and everything fell out and I was left without a apron for the night, and only after a few months of wearing.. Going to buy a different brand now because the seams weren’t great when I got it anyways.

I`ve wore this apron 5 days a week for a year as a server and I`ve never had an issue with it! I love how it is reversible so if something spills on it you can easily turn it around. There isn`t any wear or tear yet and it`s machine washable. The pockets are larger enough to fit ever thing you need to carry as a server.
