FAQs
Are these pants suitable for front-of-house staff?
These pants are primarily designed for back-of-house culinary staff due to their baggy, functional aesthetic.
Does the fabric shrink after washing?
The material is designed to be low-maintenance and resistant to typical laundry shrinkage when washed in accordance with the care label.
Can I wear a belt with these pants?
These pants feature an elasticated waistband and do not include belt loops; the drawstring provides the necessary adjustment.
How deep are the pockets?
The side-seam pockets are deep enough to store standard kitchen essentials like pens, thermometers, and note cards securely.
Is the fabric fire-resistant?
While the fabric is durable for kitchen use, it is not classified as fireproof; always exercise caution around open flames.
How should I choose the right size?
The waist is elasticated for flexibility; refer to your standard trouser waist measurement and choose based on the provided sizing chart.
Troubleshooting
Drawstring lost inside the waistband
Use a safety pin attached to the end of the drawstring to guide it back through the opening.
Fabric staining
Pre-treat the area with a grease-fighting laundry detergent immediately before washing to prevent stains from setting.
Loss of waist elasticity
Avoid high-heat tumble drying, as excessive heat can cause the elastic fibers to snap or lose tension.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your Chef Works pants, follow standard professional laundry procedures. Use the integrated drawstring to achieve your desired tightness before beginning your shift. When washing, machine wash with like colors in warm water. Because the fabric is wrinkle-resistant, it typically requires little to no ironing; however, if you must iron, use a low-heat setting. Avoid the use of heavy bleaches, as these can degrade the elasticity of the waistband over time.
