What makes us different?
The majority of Retro Chef uniforms feature the following:
- Fabrics that are colour fast, durable, stain resistant, easily laundered
- Twin reinforced stitching on pressure points to prevent fraying or tearing
- A special finish on internal seams to prevent rubbing
- Incorporation of design features such as action pleats and fabric allowance for reaching, bending, and squatting without tugging and pulling
- Generous cuts in most designs
- Extra length on most jackets to avoid pulling out from aprons
- Uniquely tailored female chef jacket
- Full traditional range AND innovative designs incorporating colors and features such as piping, coloured collars and cuffs, special panels etc
- Design tricks such as fully reversible skull caps, double fronts for a clean underneath layer, the addition of corporate colours and designs for larger figures.
Retro Chef now works with hundreds of education and training institutions, hotels, restaurants and cafes. The Retro Chef label is Australian manufactured by Australian employees, and wherever possible we source Australian made fabrics. We believe it is important to play our part in offering global quality and value whilst contributing to the Australian economy so that we can all compete in the global market.
