"As a big guy, I got mine in 2XL, and I find it breathable, comfortable, and it fits nicely. It's easy to wash and doesn’t wrinkle. The black color is perfect for our kitchen, so I bought several to always have one ready. There are plenty of pockets and an apron strap on the back of the neck, which keeps the apron secure. This coat is definitely worth the price!"

"I've been using the Chef Works Men's Springfield Chef Coat for years and it has become my go-to in the kitchen. It offers a blend of style and functionality that enhances my cooking experience. The coat has a professional appearance that boosts my confidence while I work. Its comfortable fit and breathable fabric allow me to move easily during busy hours in the kitchen, and the well-placed pockets provide convenient storage for my essential tools."

"I purchased the Chef Code Men's Short Sleeve Unisex Classic Chef Coat for my husband, and it's been a fantastic addition to his chef's uniform collection. The coat is made with high-quality materials and is extremely comfortable for long hours. The short sleeves provide ample ventilation, making it easier to work in warm kitchens. I also love the elegant double-breasted design with ten pearl buttons. It’s versatile and suitable for any kitchen, from casual cafes to upscale restaurants. I highly recommend this coat for anyone in the foodservice industry!"

"I recently bought this chef coat, and I must say, it fits amazingly comfortable and is very affordable. The material is breathable yet durable, with a nice cut that is true to size. I'm definitely going to order again, as I believe you will not be dissatisfied!"

"I really appreciate the design of this chef coat, especially the yellow and black piping that adds a fancy touch compared to my usual white coats. The thinner breathable fabric still looks crisp and is not transparent. I've received numerous compliments on the fit and accents. However, I did notice some fraying on the piping after several washes, and a little stitching issue under one arm. Despite this, I still love wearing it and will take special care of it."

"I got this for my son for his high school culinary class. He finds it comfortable and easy to move in. The material feels like good quality but isn't too thick for a hot kitchen. We sized up due to his growth, but it's not overly big. It has held up well after 6 weeks of weekly washes. I would definitely purchase it again for the quality at this price."

"I bought this for my husband's Halloween costume. He usually wears L and XL, so I ordered the XL to be safe and because it was the only size that would arrive on time. It turned out perfect for him! He's 6'2” and weighs about 120lbs, broad-shouldered with a long torso. The quality is impressive: great cut and fabric weight, with firmly attached buttons. I would totally recommend it, especially for the $10 I paid!"

"This chef outfit was exactly what we needed for Halloween! The fit was perfect and the material was very well made! I could see this being useful for chefs in a real kitchen."

"I started working as a chef at a small retirement place and needed a uniform. I bought a couple of these and they did not disappoint! The fabric is light, strong, and breathable. They fit well, but I find there's no give to the fabric, making shoulder movement tricky at times. Washing has been easy; I just throw them in the washer, and they come out clean every time. After about four months, they're still in great shape and not faded at all."

"I've been a CEC for over 15 years, and while these jackets aren't as comfortable as my $150 Egyptian Cotton Chef Jackets, they are incredibly affordable and ship quickly. They're perfect for everyday chef wear. If you're on a budget and considering these jackets, I say order them now. They're great quality, unpretentious, and durable!"

"I ordered two coats for a part-time job, hoping they'd arrive on time. However, I received two different styles, and one smelled like it had already been worn. The fit and style were different than I expected. Overall, the quality meets the price point, but I recommend resewing the buttons, as they seem to be hanging on by a thread!"

"I bought a large to test the fit and I love that it's a short sleeve coat. The material isn't bulky, plus the breathable mesh back is perfect for hot kitchens. It’s affordable too, so I ended up buying three more!"

"I got a 4XL and it fits perfectly! It's a great value for the money, especially since not many brands offer larger sizes that actually fit. The color is a true black, and it's comfortable and slightly stretchy."

"I've had jobs that provided this coat before, and I can attest it's genuinely the best. The half back ventilation keeps me comfortable. It's incredibly durable, with stitching that holds up better than cheaper options. It's worth every penny!"

"I have to be careful with sizes; I ordered a size larger for a better fit. Overall, amazing product!"

"As a line cook, I wanted to elevate my look. This shirt is affordable, sharp-looking, and holds up great after 40 hours of work!"

"La calidad de la filipina es excelente. Justo para la cocina profesional."

"I bought this for Halloween and it looked great. The quality was nice and it didn’t feel cheap at all."

"I ordered a medium for my teenage son based on reviews, and I’m glad I did! It fits him perfectly, even though he usually wears a large."

"As someone who bought a dress shirt online for the first time, I found it to be perfect for my needs."

"I’ve been using this in tropical weather, and it’s super comfy, easy to wash, and looks great. It’s definitely the best of all the models and brands I’ve tested!"

"I haven't used it in a busy kitchen yet, but it looks nice and feels like it will breathe well."

"After ten years in the restaurant industry, I always wore chef work clothes, but when I tried this one on, it’s beautiful, elegant, comfortable, and the materials are fantastic—honestly the best chef coat ever!"

"I love the teal color and the great build quality. It fits tight, is super comfortable, and feels lightweight. Just a tip: if you aren't skinny, go for a size larger than usual!"

"I purchased this coat for my brother, and he has no complaints. It's holding up really well with use and after multiple washes!"

"As someone who works in baking, I find this coat to be very functional for my needs!"

"My husband was very pleased with the quality of the material and design. He even ordered a second one because it's very breathable for those hot days in the kitchen and looks professional for face-to-face interactions with customers."

"I love these for work; I wear them every day. They clean very nicely and are easy to deal with."

"While I think it's a great jacket that appears to be well-made, I did find that the Large size feels more like an XL. But it's not a major issue for me."
