FAQs

Is this jacket suitable for both men and women?

Yes, many of the Le Mans variants are unisex, providing a comfortable fit for all culinary professionals.

What is the purpose of the turn-back cuffs?

Turn-back cuffs allow for easy adjustment of sleeve length and offer a clean, finished appearance that is traditional in professional kitchens.

Does the fabric stretch?

No, the Le Mans jacket is constructed from durable, traditional fabric designed for longevity rather than stretch.

How should I choose my size?

Is the thermometer pocket on the right or left?

The thermometer pocket is located on the left sleeve.

Troubleshooting

Stubborn grease stains on the fabric

Pre-treat the affected area with a professional-grade degreaser or stain remover before adding to your regular wash cycle.

Fabric appearing wrinkled after washing

Remove the jacket from the dryer immediately while slightly damp and hang it to complete the drying process to minimize wrinkles.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your jacket remains in top condition, follow these guidelines:

  1. Fitting: Try on the jacket with your usual kitchen undergarment to ensure the wider cut fits your frame correctly.
  2. Cleaning: Launder using standard commercial or home washing cycles, but avoid heavy bleaching agents to maintain the brightness of the white fabric.
  3. Ironing: The jacket responds well to a medium-high steam iron to keep the collar and cuffs looking sharp for service.
  4. Storage: Hang the jacket on a sturdy hanger rather than folding it to prevent deep wrinkles in the chest and collar area.
