These are not run-of-the-mill aprons.

The soft, durable, 100% cotton canvas fabric is produced on a 100 year-old handloom in my partner's hometown of Kannur, India.

The classic bib style apron is as practical as it is good looking. Includes two large pockets below the waist for cooking utensils, cell phone, and secret recipes. Features a blue ticking stripe embellishment.

Two small pockets near the top hold pens and pencils. Neck strap is fully adjustable. Waist strap is long enough to tie in back or front.

Aprons are unisex. Models are wearing the Classic Bib apron size. Durable, stamped steel hardware.

Each apron comes tied in custom Reluctant Trading printed cloth tape. Ideal for gift giving.

100% cotton. 200 thread count. Machine wash cold, tumble dry low. Durable and incredibly affordable.

We supply our aprons to top restaurants around the country.

Kyle (nice chap with beard in the photos) is 5'10".
Malik (nice chap with curly hair in the photos) is 6’2”.

Both are wearing Standard Size Classic Bib Aprons - however the neck strap is adjusted differently for each.

    The new apron is much better than my old linen ones. It’s shorter and wraps around almost to each butt cheek. Sometimes, I find myself not wanting to get it dirty because it’s so pretty.

    Thanksgiving Win!

    My twenty-three year old grandson wore his new apron as he made four pies, two types of dressings, and prepped the turkey with an herb butter rub on Wednesday and again today/Thanksgiving as he carved the turkey. He loved it due to the way it protected his clothes. His father, the carpenter, loved it because it looked like a Duluth product. Thanks for the win. Proud Grandma

    Gorgeous and useful

    I judged improperly how long I wanted the string to be so I have to tie it the back, which is not optimal. Otherwise it’s wonderful, the fabric is terrific and I love having the pockets and it’s so easy to get on and adjust properly.
