| What began as a simple need for comfort in the kitchen led to a revolutionary creation for the culinary industry. Chefwear transformed the standard polyester men’s chef pant into a 100% cotton, baggy pant and a new standard was born. Our line now consists of 24 different pants that focus on comfort, functionality and style. But how do you determine which ones are the best fit? Below we’ve outline the differences among our top 3 styles; Baggy, Ultimate and Traditional. | |

Meet the chef pants that launched our company and revolutionized trendy chef clothing. Made with 100% cotton fabric, these chef pants set the bar for comfortable chef wear. They feature a 3-inch elastic waistband with drawstring, which is sewn with triple-needle stitching to help maintain the elasticity, adding longevity and durability while providing ultimate flexibility and coverage. Also, our Baggy chef pants are cut with a roomier fit. They are 3-inches wider on each hip compared to the Ultimate chef pants and provide extra protection from spills and heat, as well as more room to bend and move. Tapered ankles not only help give these pants their distinguished look but also support safety in the kitchen by keeping the hem above the sole of the shoes. If worn correctly, rest assured you will not slip on the bottom of these chef pants. Whether your color palette is festive like Carnivale, traditional like our Black and White Houndstooth, or vibrant like our Chili Peppers, you’re sure to find what you’re looking for to complete your chef look with over 40 patterns to choose from. |

Our Ultimate chef pant has infinite options. This relaxed fit pant was crafted with similar features as the Baggy pant: roominess, extra-deep pockets on the sides and the back, a 1-inch hem to give it a crisp, clean look and triple-needle stitching on the waistband. Different than the Baggy pants, the Ultimate chef pants have a 2-inch waistband and a slightly shorter rise, so they sit a little lower on your waist. While the Ultimate pants are relaxed in the hip and thigh, they are not as generously cut as the Baggy pants, which leads to a more contemporary look and feel. The Ultimate chef pants are stocked in every 100% cotton fabric color and print in the Chefwear line, which is over 50 options. They are also available in a handful of colors and prints in a 60/40 cotton/poly blend (Four-Star Ultimate Pant). If an Eco-Friendly option appeals to you, check out the Organic Ultimate Pant in 100% certified organic cotton. Last year, we took your requests and created the Zipper Fly Ultimate, which added a zipper fly and belt loops. And if that still doesn’t fit your build, we stock four colors of the Ultimate Pant in longer, shorter and un-hemmed inseams. If you’d like a little more storage space, try our Cargo chef pants. They are based on the Ultimate fit with two extra cargo pockets on the legs. |

If you want a more tailored look, the Traditional chef pants offer the same comfort and functionality as the Ultimate pants, but with a slightly different fit. The Traditional chef pants feature a slimmer cut than the Ultimate pants. They are 3-inches narrower on each hip and feature a straight leg and wider ankle opening. These pants present a clean, modern style and are available in 16 of our classic 100% cotton colors and patterns. The Traditional pants are also offered in a wrinkle-and-stain-resistant 60/40 cotton/poly blend (Four-Star Traditional Pants). For a touch of class, try the Tuxedo Pant which incorporates black satin ribbon trim along the outseam of each leg. |
