chef coats
Double-breasted cook attire
Chef coats are the double-breasted white jackets worn by professional cooks.
The traditional design features cloth-covered buttons and reversible front panels—if one side gets stained during service, the coat can be rebuttoned to show the clean side.
White signals cleanliness and professionalism in the kitchen.
