There are so many limitations to being in business. When we enthusiastically introduce a new apron, obviously, it needs to be available to the customer base. It means suppliers are in place with ongoing fabric deliveries, it is a proven design that the customers like and patterns have been made for production. But sometimes, as…
It’s been on our list for awhile to create a Chef Apron for Women, in a cut that is specific to them. Chef Aprons are traditionally a flat cut out shape that wraps around the body held in place by neck ties and waist ties. It’s a challenge to design a Classic Chef Apron for…

Although this is typically my favorite method, it can bring remarks from coworkers of “Seriously?” “You are kidding right?” I remain undaunted amongst them as there are other times when coworkers response with “Wow, why…
Aprons are essentially work clothes. Their job is not only to keep you clean but to help you do your job. They should carry your things in such a way as to not impede your ability to act. Not sure what I mean? Take our first Drawstring Gathering Apron. We were thrilled to make it…
