Make no mistake, this is no run-of-the-mill apron.

The soft, durable, 100% cotton fabric is produced on a 100 year-old handloom in my partner's hometown of Kannur, India. To achieve a natural feel, no starch is added to the yarn at the weaving stage.

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. If you prefer an apron without pockets, you’re in luck. 

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 are now supplying these to top restaurant chefs around the country.

Both Nick and Rebecca, shown in the photos, are 5'8" tall. Both are wearing our Standard Size aprons.

Cross back apron

Very light on the body. Looks amazing. The color choices that are displayed are awesome, looks better in person. Pockets are good enough to carry small notebooks, pens, spoons, etc… The pocket on the top of the apron fits well for my thermometer, sharpie, pen, highlighter and plating tweezers. I’d personally say this is better then Hedley and Bennet. I own some Hedley and Bennet cross back aprons. I feel like they’re heavier then the crossback aprons that Reluctant has. In my opinion I’d go for Reluctant threads any day compared to Hedley and Bennet. Beautiful, light, affordable, durable and adjustable to your movements. Thank you Reluctant, Im glad I bought a lot of aprons from y’all.

Very pleased!

The Apron is well made of durable fabric. I especially appreciate the long ties, so I can tie it in front.
