Grey’s anatomy

Okay, “biggest” fear was straps required rear tying because I’m close to 220 lbs, but no problem tying my charcoal beauty in front. Phew.
Now on to practical apron considerations. It’s well constructed, the pockets are useful, the fabric substantial, the little ticking embellishment tastefully handled, and it happily reminds me of favorite NYC steak house waiter garb from forty years ago. I love this long half apron!

Best aprons in 23 years of cooking

Honestly best aprons I ever worn , clean professional and so well made . Plus being a big guy ,you offer way more options in a size more fitting for me at a price I can’t deny . Love them !

Best decision I ever made in buying an apron

I am a professional chef and have been for over forty years. I have gone through many different types of aprons, from the basics that get delivered to the kitchen every week from a linen service to high profile boutique aprons. I tried reluctant threads just like I tried others, but this was a very different outcome. Not only was the price very attractive so was the product and the quality. I think I have found a new company to do business with. Just give them a try, you won’t be disappointed.

SOLID CRAFTSMANSHIP

As a professional chef for 45 years, I am highly impressed with the apron. I've tried them all, Reluctant Threads is superior in every way.

Bistro Shorty Apron, 14"L, Tan with Tan Straps, Men or Women

The perfect cross-back apron!

I was so happy when I opened the box with the aprons I ordered! The color and quality of the fabric is just what I was looking for. I love the pockets and sturdy straps that wrap perfectly. They are very well made and look stylish and classic. I am so happy. Thank you for making such a great product!

Prefect blend of quality and great price.

I really appreciate the design, high quality and really fair price. I’m ordering a second color for myself and my work bestie.

Aprons are great!

I purchased the denim aprons and they are amazing! Can't wait to buy more!

We have been using Reluctant Trading since our opening and don't see us with any other other product.
Service and quality are both outstanding!

Absolute joy of an apron!

Reluctant Threads did what few companies ever do; they towed that thin line between value and quality. The apron is made of high-quality material and provides everything I need in a professional kitchen from coverage across the torso, hips, and legs, convenient sharpie and pen access, to straps that are comfortable and grippy, which ensures they stay in place throughout my shift. So happy with the purchase that I told my wife I needed to add a new color to the rotation, which at that point would bring my total for two Reluctant Threads aprons to what other companies charge for one of theirs. I highly recommend their chef's apron for anyone from home cooks to caterers to pro chefs.

Terrific!

The Café loves working with Reluctant Threads. The website is easy to navigate, products are high quality, and customer service is outstanding.

Timeless styling and great vibe!

Great color, design, and usefulness! You seem like laid back, sort of wry people behind this design, so that adds a lot to it. I do some social media modeling so you may see me in this apron!

Cross-Back Chef Apron, Olive with Tan Straps, Men and Women

Lovely

Great color and I love the little details liked the striped tag on the pocket, and the khaki straps. Nice durable material but soft and not too heavy and not too stiff at all.

Best purchase ever

I’m a private chef in Lake Tahoe and essentially live with an apron on, and the cross back style has literally changed my life, I’m so glad to not have something yanking on my neck. Thank you, these are beyond affordable too, I’m going to order more!

Best apron

This apron is very substantial and stylish. I saw a coworker with this dual tone apron and decided to get it and was very pleased even impressed with the quality. I love the deep pockets and get a lot of compliments on it, frankly.

My team loves them!

We decided it was time to upgrade from cheap synthetic aprons to something more sturdy, and these aprons are superior to any I’ve worn in the past! Wider straps mean better comfort and less slip in the knot, attention to detail in the pocket stitching means less wear and tear, all of the details just make for a better experience!

Ich liebe die Schürze. Ich wünschte, ich hätte mehr

Our new aprons

I really love the apron. It's durability and the color

Beautiful, comfortable, functional! It gets lots of compliments from guests.

Wonderful High Quality Apron!!

I took a wonderful cooking class with WInd and Rye in Penngrove and guest Chef Preeti Mistry. The owner Laci of Wind and Rye provided us with your wonderful aprons and mine needed to be replaced at home so I ordered one. I love it! It is the nicest apron I have ever had. I intend to purchase more as gifts for my culinary friends! Thank you!

Heavy textile so doesn’t look cheap.
