Altitude Dijon Chef Jacket - the professional standard, priced right
The Altitude Dijon Chef Jacket is a professional-grade chef's white designed for the demands of real kitchen work. Whether you're a working chef at the pass, a culinary student building your kit, a caterer running events, or a serious home cook who takes their kitchen seriously - this is the jacket you can put on every day and trust to hold up.
Built for full-shift wear. The 195 g/m poly-cotton blend fabric (65% polyester, 35% cotton) hits the professional sweet spot: substantial enough to feel proper, light enough to breathe through a hot service. The blend is engineered specifically for commercial laundering - it survives the high temperatures, industrial detergents, and constant washing that kitchen linens go through, without shrinking, losing shape, or fading.
Classic double-breasted design. The traditional double-breasted button front is a chef's uniform staple for a reason: if the front panel gets splattered or stained during service, you simply reverse the closure to present a clean side. Contrast black piping at the collar, front panel, and cuffs gives the jacket a polished professional silhouette.
Details that matter on the line. The dedicated thermometer pocket on the sleeve is a small feature with a big impact - your probe or pen is always within reach, no more digging in apron pockets mid-service. Long sleeves protect your forearms from heat and splatter.
A genuinely unisex fit, in a full size range. From XS through 5XL, cut to work for men and women alike. Rare in professional workwear - usually you're choosing between a men's cut that swims on you or a women's cut that runs small.
Perfect for: professional chefs, sous chefs, line cooks, culinary students, cooking schools, catering staff, hospitality teams, restaurant owners kitting out their brigade, home cooks who want the real thing, and gift-buyers looking for something a working chef will actually use.
