Chest and Waist Aprons

Chest aprons cover from the chest to below the waist, offering greater protection for the torso and clothing. They are ideal for chefs, cooks and professionals who require complete protection. Waist aprons start at the waist and go down to mid-thigh, providing greater mobility and are perfect for bartenders, waiters and situations that require less frontal protection. At RAG Tailors, both models are made with high-quality fabrics and available in a variety of designs, colors and materials to meet the specific needs of each professional.

For professional kitchen aprons, we recommend high-density cotton, polyester-cotton and blended fabrics with stain-resistant treatment. Cotton offers comfort and ideal breathability for long working hours, while blended fabrics ensure greater durability and resistance to frequent washing. At RAG Tailors, we also use sustainable options such as organic cotton and recycled fabrics, which combine environmental responsibility with excellent performance. For environments with greater exposure to liquids, we have aprons with repellent treatments that keep the professional dry and comfortable throughout the service.

To choose the ideal apron for your establishment, first consider the function and work environment. For professional kitchens with high heat and exposure to liquids, chest aprons with resistant fabrics and anti-stain treatment are the best option. For wait staff, waist aprons in lighter and more elegant materials complement the uniform. At RAG Tailors, we also recommend considering personalization with the establishment's logo to reinforce the brand identity. Also evaluate durability, ease of cleaning and comfort, especially for long shifts, opting for adjustable models with functional pockets.

At RAG Tailors, we offer a variety of customization options for aprons, including embroidery, printing and screen printing. You can customize your apron with your corporate logo, business name or employee name, creating a strong and consistent visual identity. To request customization, simply send us an email with the references and the desired image to get a quote. The customization process takes between 10 and 15 business days, while orders without customization are delivered within 5 business days. We also offer color options, finishes and additional pockets to tailor the apron to the specific needs of your business.

To ensure the longevity of your professional aprons, we recommend following some essential practices. Wash aprons according to the instructions on the label, generally at 40-60°C to effectively eliminate stains and bacteria. Avoid using bleach except on white aprons specifically designed for this purpose. For stubborn stains, apply a pre-treatment before washing. Dry aprons preferably outdoors or in a dryer at a low temperature to prevent shrinkage. Iron while still slightly damp for best results. With this simple care, RAG Tailors aprons will maintain their appearance and functionality for much longer.

Today’s trends in professional aprons are moving towards more modern designs that combine aesthetics and functionality. We’re seeing a growing demand for aprons in neutral tones (black, grey, beige) complemented by details in leather or other contrasting materials. Cross-over cuts on the back, which improve weight distribution, are gaining popularity. Aprons with multiple functional pockets for utensils and smartphones are also in high demand. At RAG Tailors, we follow these trends by offering contemporary designs that don’t compromise on durability or practicality, adapting them to both haute cuisine and more casual spaces such as cafés and brewpubs.

Using aprons made from sustainable or recycled fabrics offers multiple advantages. In addition to the obvious environmental benefit of reducing the consumption of natural resources and the ecological footprint, these materials often offer superior quality and durability that is comparable to or greater than conventional fabrics. At RAG Tailors, our sustainable aprons are hypoallergenic and softer to the touch, providing greater comfort during long working hours. Additionally, using these materials communicates to your customers your establishment’s commitment to responsible practices, which can positively contribute to your brand image in today’s increasingly conscious market.
