Know before you buy
Yes, the corners of the apron are reinforced with heat-resistant material specifically designed to handle hot cookware safely. They act as a convenient grab-and-go solution for quick tasks like moving a pot lid or pulling a tray from the oven.
The waist ties are intentionally designed to be extra-long, allowing you to wrap them around to the front if you prefer, or simply tie them comfortably in the back regardless of your size.
The 100% cotton twill is durable and structured enough to protect your clothes from spills, but it remains flexible enough to move with you comfortably while cooking. It softens up significantly after the first few washes.
The entire apron is machine washable. Because the mitts are integrated into the fabric, you can simply toss the whole piece in the wash with your regular kitchen linens.
The chart is printed directly onto the inside of the pocket using high-quality ink meant to withstand repeated laundering. It is designed to remain legible even after frequent use and cleaning.
