How CHEFtog's Online Apron Customization Works

Updated

CHEFtog lets you design an apron online and order as few as one piece, with no minimum order quantity. According to the company, you can customize fabric, color, apron and tie lengths, pocket configuration, and hardware, and it says custom aprons are priced in line with what other companies charge for off-the-shelf aprons. The aprons are cut, sewn, and assembled in West Chicago, Illinois, in sizes ranging from Big and Tall to Petite, Junior-Teen, and Kids.

What You Can Customize

CHEFtog's site lists these customization points:

Customization What it covers
Fabric Choose the material for your apron
Color Select the apron color
Apron length Specify how long the apron should be
Tie length Set the length of the ties
Pocket configuration Decide the pocket layout
Hardware Choose the hardware details

The site frames this as "Your Apron. Your Way. Your Price." — the idea being that you design the apron to fit your body and workflow rather than adjusting to a stock product.

Ordering in Any Quantity

CHEFtog advertises "No Minimums — Buy 1 or 1,000,000." That means the same online customization process applies whether you're an individual chef ordering a single apron or a restaurant group outfitting a large team. For bulk orders, it's worth confirming lead times and any order-specific terms directly with CHEFtog, since the site's shipping promotion explicitly excludes bulk orders.

Base Styles and Sizes

Customization sits on top of CHEFtog's existing collections:

  • Styles: Bib aprons, cross-back aprons, bistro aprons, and server aprons
  • Sizes: Big and Tall, Regular, Petite, Junior-Teen, and Kids

You pick a style and size as the starting point, then apply your fabric, color, length, pocket, and hardware choices.

Shipping and Contact

  • Free shipping threshold: Orders of $125 or more qualify for free UPS Ground shipping.
  • Shipping promotion limits: Free UPS Ground shipping applies only to non-bulk orders in the continental United States; Hawaii, Alaska, and other territories are excluded.
  • Phone: +1 (630) 293-4820

What to Check Before Ordering

  • Confirm bulk terms. The free-shipping promotion excludes bulk orders, so ask about pricing and delivery for large quantities.
  • Verify sizing against the size chart. Because apron and tie lengths are customizable, measure before specifying lengths, especially for Big and Tall or Petite fits.
  • Ask about fabric options and care. The site names fabric as a customization point but doesn't list every option on the page; call or check the product pages for the current selection.
  • Plan for lead time. Custom-made aprons are cut and sewn to order in the USA, so build in time before a kitchen opening or uniform rollout.

In short: if you need one apron or a full restaurant uniform set with specific lengths, pockets, and hardware, CHEFtog's online design process is built for exactly that — start with a style and size, specify your details, and confirm bulk terms by phone before a large order.
