Engineered for Performance

The Le Chef Long Sleeve Academy Tunic is a definitive staple for culinary professionals and students alike, combining traditional aesthetics with modern fabric technology. Constructed from a 200gsm blend of 65% recycled polyester and 35% cotton, this tunic offers a sustainable uniform solution that withstands the intensity of professional kitchens. The garment features StayCool™ technology in the collar lining and underarm panels, actively regulating body temperature to keep chefs cool under pressure. Engineered for hygiene and longevity, it is suitable for industrial washing at 65°C, ensuring it meets strict food safety standards. The twin needle stitching adds structural reinforcement, making this one of the most reliable chef tunics available for daily use in demanding culinary environments.

Comfort & Workforce Utility

Long sleeves with turn-back French cuffs provide essential protection against heat and splashes, a critical safety feature for line cooks. Practicality is further enhanced by a double pen pocket on the left sleeve, allowing for quick access to writing tools.
