Hudson Durable Goods - Professional Grade Chef Apron for Kitchen, BBQ, and Grill

Initially, I purchased the burgundy-coloured apron, and was immediately impressed by the design, construction, and durability. The fabric, however, was somewhat light in weight, and as I wished a second one, I bought the blue DENIM version, which is significantly more robust in nature. I decided to give the burgundy apron to my wife, and ordered a third in black DENIM. We are, at present, (2020) in basic self-isolation, and spend many hours in the kitchen. These aprons are our constant companions, and indeed, along with my chef shoes, I would feel naked if I wasn't wearing one. I have nothing negative to say about these superlative Hudson aprons and their features. Unlike many, the straps go OVER the shoulders, greatly reducing strain, a major bonus if one is continually cooking or washing dishes. Instead of being just a frontal protecting shield, they extend, reasonably, around the sides of the body, and fit much like a favourite shirt. Two things: 1) We never put them in the dryer....and let them air-dry. 2) If storing on a hook or peg on the wall, I always face the front/outside against the wall, and then hook the inside hang-loop on the peg. That way, (in theory) the apron straps are positioned to go when you wish to wear it again. A high-quality item that has made a major impact on my many hours in the kitchen!

OK, guys, fellow cooks and kitchen magicians, let's get this straight right now: This is NOT "an apron," it is a "MANPRON" and there is likely no good lady in your life who will want to borrow it! LOL, it's just way masculine designed, and looks, feels, behaves like the good stuff I buy from my favorite "man-stores" which begin with "C" and "D" for those in the know!!! I love this thing...robust material, unique design, all sorts of "hi-lo" pockets, etc., to put stuff in (even a side loop to hang something from)...and even has a slot pocket for a pen or pencil! Wow, THAT is thoughtful. I'd darn well wear this to the market, then straight to the kitchen for cooking...LOL. I'm a shorty "bear," 5'6" and 175#, but the straps and the way it fits is so flexible that I think it would fit anyone, and it STAYS in place because the straps from the front cross over the shoulder, then across the back (straps held in place by a very clever bit of leather "X-guide"), down to the waist and connect at the small of the back with a secure plastic BUCKLE with the adjustable straps to make sure it holds in place no matter how tight or loose you prefer...no need to "tie a knot"! You might even have to spend a minute or two to figure it out (I did) because I have never seen anything like it; VERY well thought out!!! It's a heavy denim type fabric, sewed strongly for durability. I got the grey color...nice and "business-like;" and no frivolous decorations, words, silly sayings, etc., on it. It ought to wash well, and soften a little (it's a bit like a new pair of jeans right now...) with proper care. A personal hint: do NOT use fabric softener on this as it reduces/eliminates the ability of the fabric to absorb liquid/s; bad for the cooking business! Guys, cooks...get one of these, and YAY-shoutout to the single Dad who makes these! My vote: 5 stars!

Muy útil.

Après plusieurs mois d'utilisation : J'adore ce tablier de cuisine. En terme d'accroches, de tissu (style jean) et avec de nombreuses poches, il me correspond bien. Je suis un homme, je cuisine souvent et je souhaitais un tablier qui sorte des clichés sexistes. Celui-ci est unisexe, se nettoie très bien et satisfera les cuisiniers d'un soir ou les pros. J'ai eu l'envie de ce produit après avoir vu la série "The Bear" avec Jeremy Allen White (Shameless).

I looked a a number of aprons, although not cheap, the quality of the item is excellent and I suspect will last for years. Easy to clean, and dry. I like the clips to fasten at the back, no fuss trying to tie the straps, nice number of pockets too, very pleased with the purchase
