Kitchen Chef Cooking Apron with Single Pocket
_300x278.jpg "Personalized Japanese Wood Chopsticks")
Keep him looking cool. The Kitchen Chef Cooking Apron with Single Pocket is the one that gets pulled off the hook every weekend, because it is a working apron before it is a gift. The cut is medium length, which covers the shirt and the front of the trousers without wrapping around the knees at a hot grill, and there is a single large front pocket for the towel, the tongs, the thermometer and the phone that keeps ringing while the coals are coming up.
One deep pocket across the front beats a row of shallow ones when what you actually need is somewhere to put the towel you just used. It is the kind of detail nobody notices until they are holding a hot pan in one hand and a spatula in the other. Medium length keeps the hem clear of the grill lid and the oven door, so the apron stays out of the way of the cooking rather than getting in the middle of it.
This functional apron can be embroidered so that everyone will know who to thank for the fantastic party. Two lines of up to twelve characters each are stitched in-house by HansonEllis: a name, a title he has been calling himself for years, or the name the family already uses for his kitchen. Grill Master. Dad's Diner. Chef Marcus. Head Chef since 1998. The embroidery is stitched into the fabric rather than printed on top of it, so the name is part of the apron and not a layer sitting on it.
That is what separates this from the apron somebody grabs at the supermarket. A blank apron is equipment. An apron with his name stitched across it is the thing he wears when people are coming over, and it turns up in every photo taken in that kitchen for the next ten years. It works for Father's Day, a birthday, a housewarming, a retirement, or the holidays, and HansonEllis has been personalizing gifts in-house since 1999.

Which one should I choose
The decision is usually between an apron that names the cook and one that is simply protective clothing.
| Kitchen Chef Cooking Apron with Single Pocket | Choose it when you want a medium length apron with one large front pocket and a name or title embroidered across it. |
|---|---|
| A plain store-bought apron | Choose it when the apron is purely equipment for a working kitchen and nobody needs their name on it. |
| A printed novelty apron | Choose it for a one-off joke; printed lettering sits on the surface, while embroidery is stitched into the fabric. |
For a gift that gets worn rather than folded away, the embroidered apron is the better pick, because a name stitched on the front makes it his and not the household's.
