Sizing & Care
Sizing runs differently across this collection, so match the system to the style before you order. The Flex Chef Pants use numbered waist sizing, 26 through 44, with a 33 inch inseam that holds steady across the whole range, so you know what you're getting before it ships. The Essential Chef Pants and Chef Joggers use letter sizing instead — Essential runs XS through 3XL with inseam lengths built out per size, from 26 1/2 inches up to 30 1/2 inches, so the leg stays proportional whether you're short or tall. The Chef Joggers run XS through 4XL in a relaxed, loose fit that runs generous — sizing down is worth considering if you want a more tailored silhouette. The Chef's Hat comes in just two sizes, S/M and L/XL, in Black or Brown. When in doubt on any of these, check the size chart before you check out. Care is straightforward and mostly the same across the line. Wash cold, skip the fabric softener — it matters most on the Chef Joggers and the Kitchen Towels, where it can affect stretch and grip — and tumble or line dry on low. The Flex Chef Pants need the button and zipper fastened before they go in the machine. None of this gear asks for special treatment beyond that. If you're building a full kitchen uniform, pair any of these pants with a shirt from the chef workshirts collection, or round out the kit with a coat from chef coats. Outfitting a whole team instead of just yourself? The wholesale & team ordering page covers custom runs and repeat orders for restaurant and hospitality groups.

Every kitchen runs a shift differently, and this range covers more than pants. Reach for the Flex Chef Pants if you want a slimmer cut with a jean-style button and zip fly, built to hold through a full shift without feeling like sweats. Want more room through the leg for standing all day? The Essential Chef Pants use a straight, slightly baggier cut, an elastic waistband with branded waist ties, and reinforced knees for the kneeling and case-lifting that comes with the job. The Chef Joggers push further toward a sporty fit — a 90% polyester, 10% spandex blend with rib-knit ankle cuffs that keep the hem clear of the stove.
Round out the kit with the Chef's Hat, a no-brim skullcap with stretch mesh side panels that let heat escape during a slammed service, and the Kitchen Towels 3-Pack, a stain-resistant, low-lint set sized for wiping stations and gripping hot handles. Every piece carries the same small signature details — a woven TILIT label, branded pulls and ties — the kind of thing you notice shift after shift.
