Best Chef's Aprons of 2025

“I purchased this apron to wear at home while cooking or doing chores. It’s lightweight and cool, perfect for protecting my clothes. The large pockets are incredibly useful for my phone and other essentials. I love having two so I can rotate while washing one.”

“As a hairdresser, I use this apron regularly. It looks professional and is made of medium-weight material that absorbs everything. While hair does stick due to the canvas-like texture, a lint roller easily fixes it. Overall, it’s a nice product that has held up well.”

“This apron is just right for me! The fabric is sturdy yet soft, and it fits perfectly at mid-thigh. I appreciate the deep pockets below the waist and the extra-long ties that wrap around comfortably. I'm very happy with this purchase and can see it lasting a long time."

"I wear this while working on woodcarving projects. It's medium weight, covers well, and durable. I prefer it for woodworking but not for power tools due to safety concerns. Overall, it's a well-made apron that I appreciate."

"As a machinist, I've worn Carhartt for over 50 years. My last apron lasted 26 years and was fantastic. This new one is well made, tough, and perfect for protection against machines and welding. Tons of pockets make it incredibly useful. I highly recommend it!"

"My son uses this apron for everything. It's durable, functional, and great value. It keeps his clothes clean and suits his needs perfectly. He loves it!"

"I’ve tried many black aprons, but these are the best. They’re made of durable material yet are not too heavy. I love that they maintain their black color after multiple washes. The pockets are perfectly positioned, and I appreciate the adjustable neck strap. I wash them in cool water and hang them to dry to keep everything looking neat. I highly recommend these!"

"Having made aprons for years, I decided to order these blue ones. They’re not as heavy as my usual cotton twill, but I’m not disappointed. The color is vibrant, and the length and width are generous. The price is great, and shipping was fast. However, I wish they had a higher cotton content for that classic feel. Nevertheless, I plan to order more for Christmas gifts!"

"This apron is exactly what I needed. It’s of good quality and does a fantastic job of keeping grill splatters off my clothes. I couldn't ask for a better product!"

"As a larger person, this apron fits perfectly, offering ample room for comfort. It's made of soft yet sturdy material and features numerous useful pockets.

"I was on the lookout for a masculine apron for my teenage son and husband. This one fits both of them well, despite their size difference. They both appreciate the comfortable and adjustable design. The dark black color is solid, and it washes nicely! The towel hook adds a nice touch. I would highly recommend this apron for home cooking and grilling!"

"This apron has been a fantastic find for me! The clip in the back is a game-changer, allowing for easy on and off. The cross-back straps are comfortable, and the material feels thick and durable. The thoughtful pocket layout is perfect for my needs. I truly believe this apron will last me a long time!"

“I was in search of an apron that was comfortable, protective, and looked cool for my art projects at home. This one fits the bill perfectly! The adjustable neck makes it easy to wear, and the wide, well-stitched material is never bothersome throughout my day. The wrap-around tie is a must for me, and I love that I can tie it in the back if I choose. And the lots of pockets? Just fantastic!”

“As a restaurant owner and executive chef, I can confidently say this is the nicest and best looking apron I've ever owned. The heavy-weight cotton fabric is incredibly sturdy and well-constructed. At 6'-1" tall and a 38-40 inch waist, the back ties are long enough for me to tie in the front, which is rare. The grommet hole for the neck strap allows for perfect adjustments. I plan to hand wash it to keep it in great shape and wish I could get another as a backup.”

“I make homemade lava and needed a heavy-duty apron. This one not only looks fashionable, but it held up well against the molten lava I make for the holidays. I did have a small burn mark from a splatter, but luckily my lava cools quickly!”

"I find this apron to be great for the price. I rotate between 12 aprons at work and 5 of them are these chef works denim aprons. They are very durable and easy to wash."

"I was on a mission to find the perfect shop apron for my husband for Valentine's Day. This one, though marketed as a chef's apron, turned out to be the best carpenter's apron ever! The pocket design is fantastic, and it fits him well at 6' tall. It’s well-made and provides a comfortable fit, especially around the neck."

"I got this apron for my dad's birthday, and he absolutely loved it! The denim look is masculine yet soft, making it comfortable for him to wear. The long ties are a blessing since he has arthritis. I think it will hold up well for cooking and gardening."
