Personalized Men's Robes, Loungewear and Aprons
Robes + Loungewear + Aprons is the off-duty side of HansonEllis men's apparel — what a man wears at home, at the stove and at the grill — and it includes the Smart BBQ Waxed Canvas Apron with a grilling tool set and metal bottle opener, a full-length chef kitchen apron with an adjustable strap and pockets, and a single-pocket kitchen cooking apron. Each is personalized in-house with a name, a nickname such as Grill Master or Dad, a date or a short line. It is the section people reach for at Father's Day, a housewarming, a retirement or a birthday, and it is also where cooking classes, catering crews and family cook-offs order matching pieces.
What you will find in Robes + Loungewear + Aprons
- Waxed canvas BBQ apron with a tool set the Smart BBQ Waxed Canvas Apron with Grilling Tool Set & Metal Bottle Opener, for the man who runs the grill, and for a gift that arrives ready to use rather than needing anything added to it.
- Full-length chef apron with pockets the Full-Length Chef Kitchen Apron with Adjustable Strap with Pockets, for a serious home cook, a culinary student or anyone who needs coverage down the front and somewhere to keep a towel and a thermometer.
- Single-pocket kitchen apron the Kitchen Chef Cooking Apron with Single Pocket, for everyday cooking, weekend baking and a lighter piece to hand out when several people are working in one kitchen.
- Aprons that fit without sizing the full-length chef apron uses an adjustable strap, so a gift does not depend on knowing a shirt size — useful when you are buying for someone you cannot measure.
- A nickname rather than a name Grill Master, Chef, Dad, Papa or the title someone has earned in the family reads well across an apron chest panel and is the most-requested wording here.
- Matching aprons for a group order the same apron for a cooking class, a catering crew, a family cook-off or a bridal-shower brunch and put a different name on every one.
How to choose
There are 4 pieces in Robes + Loungewear + Aprons. For the aprons, choose by where the cooking happens and how much the wearer needs to carry.
| The BBQ waxed canvas apron | Choose it for outdoor cooking and as a complete gift. Waxed canvas suits smoke and heat, and it comes with a grilling tool set and a metal bottle opener, so nothing else has to go in the box. |
|---|---|
| The full-length chef apron | Choose it for indoor cooking that runs for hours. Full length protects more of the clothing, the strap adjusts to the wearer, and the pockets hold a towel, a thermometer or a phone. |
| The single-pocket kitchen apron | Choose it for everyday cooking and for group orders, where a simpler apron with one pocket is enough and the wording is the point. |
| A nickname or a title | Choose wording the person is actually called at home or in the kitchen. Short titles hold up better across a chest panel than a long sentence. |
| One apron or a matching set | There is no minimum order, so a single Father's Day apron and a set of matching aprons with different names on them are both ordinary orders here. |

How are the aprons personalized?
They are personalized in-house by HansonEllis, which has been doing this since 1999. The listing for the apron you choose shows how its personalization is applied and where it sits on the front.
Which apron is best for grilling?
The Smart BBQ Waxed Canvas Apron. Waxed canvas suits outdoor cooking, and it comes with a grilling tool set and a metal bottle opener, which makes it a complete gift on its own.
Do I need to know a size to buy an apron as a gift?
The full-length chef apron has an adjustable strap, so you do not need a clothing size to buy it. Check the size and measurement information on the product page of whichever piece you choose before ordering.
Can each apron in a group order have a different name?
Yes. Order the full quantity first, then email the list of names or titles to [email protected] after ordering so it can be matched to your order. Cooking classes and catering crews order this way.
Is there a minimum order?
No. There is no minimum order, so a single apron as a Father's Day gift and a matching set for a whole kitchen are both normal orders.

Can I put a restaurant or company logo on the aprons?
Logos are handled by custom order. Email a vector file (.eps, .ai, .cdr, .pdf or .svg) or a high-resolution image to [email protected]. A logo setup fee applies and not every logo can be reproduced. A proof is optional on request for a $35-55 service fee per proof, and changes after a proof carry a $40 minimum fee, so confirm the artwork first. Customer Support is at 310-878-9429.
