The vent
Heat rises.
Give it a door.
A standard chef jacket traps every degree against your back. Ours opens a panel exactly where the heat collects — so the air moves instead of you.

About us
Started in a kitchen
that had closed.
Vocal Chef began in the West Midlands during the pandemic, when hospitality stopped and chefs still needed kit that worked. It is named for the chefs who are the backbone of the kitchen — and built to their standard, not a catalogue’s.

What chefs say
Worn through service.
Every one of these is from a kitchen that bought the uniform, wore it on a section, and came back to say so.

Six months on a hot section and it still looks like the day it arrived. The vent is not marketing — you feel it by the second service.
Original jacket
Kitted out the whole brigade. Sizes ran true, nothing shrank in the wash, and the black hides a shift better than the whites ever did.
Original trousers
The stealth one clears our uniform policy and still feels like ours. That was the whole problem, solved.
Original apron

Before you order
Quick answers.
The jacket carries a breathable panel down the centre back made from a lighter, more open fabric. It sits where a service line puts the most heat, so warm air has somewhere to go instead of sitting against you.
Only the branding. Original carries the full crest, Subtle carries the small knife mark, and Stealth carries nothing at all — which is what you want if your kitchen runs a strict uniform policy. The cut, the fabric and the vent are identical.
Jackets come in S, M and L, in white or black. Trousers run 30W/30L, 32W/32L, 34W/34L and 36W/34L. The apron is one size with an adjustable neck strap. Everything is cut for both men and women.
UK orders typically arrive within 3–5 working days, and you get a tracking email as soon as the order ships.
Free on all UK orders over £20. Under £20 there is a flat £2.99 charge — which is why a jacket and trousers together works out cheaper than ordering them separately.
Yes — unworn and unused items can be returned within 30 days of purchase.
Machine washable. The jackets and trousers are non-shrink poly cotton, so they hold their shape and colour through a commercial wash cycle.
