Custom Short-Sleeve Chef Jackets
ZipaSports manufactures custom short-sleeve chef jackets in Sialkot, Pakistan, with a minimum order of 20–25 pieces per design and 15–25 business day production. Restaurant groups, hotel kitchens and catering suppliers order short-sleeve jackets as the everyday line uniform in warm service environments.
The body is cut in 200–220 GSM poly-cotton twill with a double-breasted front that can be reversed mid-service to hide splashes, closed with knotted-look stud buttons that survive commercial laundering. Sleeves finish at mid-bicep with a turn-back hem, underarm gussets are set in for reaching movement, and a thermometer pocket sits on the left sleeve. Restaurant names are embroidered on the chest or the collar stand, and personal names on the opposite chest.

Short-Sleeve Chef Jackets — Frequently Asked Questions
What is the minimum order for custom short-sleeve chef jackets?
20–25 pieces per design. Lower quantities are possible on request, and there is no MOQ limit for sportswear brands and companies.
What are short-sleeve chef jackets made from?
200–220 GSM poly-cotton twill. GRS-certified recycled fabric options are available on request.
How long does production take?
Bulk production takes 15–25 business days after design approval, with an express 7–12 day service at additional cost. A free digital mockup is delivered within 24 hours of your enquiry.
Why are chef jackets double-breasted?
The overlap gives a second layer of fabric across the chest and lets a chef re-cross the front to hide a splash before going front of house. It is a working feature rather than a styling one, which is why it has survived unchanged.
Do the buttons survive commercial laundering?
Knotted-look studs are moulded rather than sewn through a shank, so they do not crack or pull off in a tunnel washer. Traditional cloth knot buttons look better but are usually specified as removable for laundered programmes.
Can individual chef names be embroidered?
Yes, we embroider the restaurant logo on one chest and the individual name on the other. Send the name list with the size split and we set each garment up during production.
How much do custom short-sleeve chef jackets cost?
Pricing depends on fabric choice, order quantity, decoration and destination, so every order is quoted individually. Send your design and quantity on WhatsApp (+92 300 7019281) for a same-day quote and a free digital mockup within 24 hours.
