I am looking for advice or help from anyone that has ever used/worn a chef coat.

I would like to get my dh one for Christmas. He is not a chef by any means, but he is a messy cook and I would like to get something to protect his clothes better.

I know that I could sew a standard apron, but I thought that maybe a chef coat would protect his arms too, which might be better.

Origionally I thought that I would sew one for him from this McCalls pattern. But, I trying to be realistic with the time that I have for sewing this Christmas!

Since I have never seen or worn a chef coat I started to think that maybe these would be a pain to take on and off frequently. Does anyone have any input on this?

My next option was maybe a Sushi Chef Coat which looks like it just has a tie for the coat.

Does anyone have any opinions?

Thanks!!!!

P.S. There is a 20% off sale until the 27th at Culinary Classics so I hope to order by then.

Betsy,

My dh got a chef's coat. It's heavy and hot and he never wore it except for the taking pictures. He doesn't like getting too warm.
