Whether you’re working in a fine dining restaurant, a bustling café, or a busy catering kitchen, this jacket combines traditional design with practical features that make it ideal for everyday use in the Australian hospitality industry. Crafted from 200gsm, 65% polyester and 35% cotton fabric, this jacket delivers the perfect blend of strength, comfort, and easy maintenance. The polyester content ensures the jacket maintains its shape and colour even after repeated washing, while the cotton provides breathability and softness against the skin.

The short sleeve design is perfect for chefs working in warmer climates or high-heat kitchens. It provides a professional appearance while allowing freedom of movement and extra ventilation. This ensures you stay cool and comfortable while tackling even the busiest service periods. The shorter sleeves also reduce the risk of fabric dragging through sauces or catching on equipment, keeping your uniform neat and hygienic throughout the day. Designed in a traditional double-breasted style, the DNC 1101 pays homage to classic chef uniforms while incorporating modern materials for improved functionality. The jacket features 10 matching colour buttons included as standard, giving it a clean and cohesive look. These buttons not only enhance the professional aesthetic but can easily be replaced if needed, maintaining a polished appearance even after months of use. A key practical feature of this jacket is its sleeve pen pocket, conveniently positioned for easy access to pens, thermometers, or small kitchen tools. It’s a small but essential detail that makes a big difference in the fast-paced kitchen environment, ensuring that you always have what you need close at hand. The DNC 1101 is available in two classic colours — Black and White, both of which bring a sense of professionalism to the kitchen. The White option delivers that timeless, traditional look that’s synonymous with chefs around the world — representing cleanliness, precision, and expertise. On the other hand, the Black version offers a modern twist that’s practical and stylish, ideal for open kitchens or casual dining venues. Black uniforms are also great at concealing stains and maintaining a tidy appearance during long shifts, making them a popular choice among contemporary chefs. Comfort and fit are also top priorities with this jacket. Offered in unisex sizes ranging from XXS to 4XL, it caters to all shapes and sizes. The relaxed yet structured fit ensures ease of movement without appearing baggy or unprofessional. Whether you’re prepping ingredients, plating dishes, or working the grill, the DNC 1101 provides the flexibility and comfort you need to perform your best. Durability is at the core of DNC’s reputation, and the 1101 model is no exception. The reinforced stitching and hard-wearing fabric make it ideal for daily use in busy commercial kitchens. It stands up to frequent washing, heat, and movement without fading, shrinking, or losing its shape. The wash-and-wear quality of the fabric ensures minimal maintenance — simply wash, dry, and wear it again with confidence. In addition to its practicality, this chef jacket embodies professionalism. Its crisp lines, double-breasted front, and well-balanced proportions give it a polished and confident look suitable for any kitchen environment.
