How to choose the right Chef Caps

• Consider your kitchen temperature and choose caps with enhanced ventilation or cool vent panels for very hot environments.
• Decide between baseball styles for a modern look or bakers caps for more traditional, full-coverage headwear.
• Match colours to your existing chef jackets, aprons and brand palette for a consistent uniform.
• Check adjustability and sizing options to ensure a secure, comfortable fit for all team members.
• Think about how often caps will be washed and select durable, colourfast fabrics that hold their shape.
• Assess your service style, from open kitchens to food trucks, and choose designs that present well front of house.

Care and maintenance

• Wash chef caps regularly following the manufacturer’s temperature guidelines to maintain hygiene and fabric integrity.
• Avoid harsh bleach or abrasive detergents that can weaken fibres and fade colours.
• Allow caps to air dry fully before storage to prevent odours and mildew build-up.
• Inspect stitching, adjustment straps and vents frequently and replace worn items promptly.
• Store clean caps in a dry, ventilated area away from direct sunlight to prolong their lifespan.
• Keep separate laundry cycles for heavily soiled kitchen garments to reduce staining and cross-contamination.
