FAQs

What is the primary benefit of the 'Stay Cool' fabric technology?

The 'Stay Cool' technology is designed to wick away moisture and promote airflow, helping to keep the wearer cool and comfortable during physical activity or in warm environments.

Is this tunic suitable for both men and women?

Yes, the Academy Short-Sleeved Chef Tunic is designed as a unisex garment, suitable for adults of all genders.

How many pockets does this tunic have?

The tunic features two pen pockets and one sleeve pocket, providing a total of three external pockets for essential tools.

What makes this tunic sustainable?

The tunic is made from materials that are certified by multiple sustainability standards, including Amfori, Better Cotton Initiative, BSCI, GRS, Oeko-Tex Standard 100, Sedex, and WRAP. This indicates a commitment to ethical sourcing, environmental responsibility, and safe manufacturing.

Can I use bleach to remove tough stains?

No, you should not use bleach on this tunic. Chlorine bleach can damage the fabric and potentially set stains. It is recommended to use a mild stain remover and avoid bleach.

What is the recommended washing temperature?

The tunic should be machine washed at a maximum temperature of 60°C (140°F).

Does the mandarin collar offer adjustability?

The mandarin collar is a fixed design element and does not offer adjustability. It is designed for a neat appearance and comfortable fit without being restrictive.

Troubleshooting

Tunic feels warm during wear

Ensure the tunic is not too tight. The Stay Cool technology is most effective with some airflow. Check if the washing instructions have been followed to maintain fabric breathability.

Stains are difficult to remove

Treat stains promptly before washing. Use a mild stain remover suitable for polyester/cotton blends. Avoid using chlorine bleach, which can set some stains and damage fabric.

Stud fasteners are difficult to use

Ensure the studs are properly aligned before fastening. If they feel stiff, try gently working them back and forth a few times. If damage occurs, contact customer support.

Fabric appears worn after several washes

Follow the recommended washing and drying temperatures. Excessive heat can degrade fabric over time. Consider air drying instead of tumble drying.
