Any great chef knows quality when they see it. It’s an eye for detail. It’s a natural instinct to seek out the perfect ingredients to deliver moments to remember. We’ve taken the inspiration from culinary masters to create Cargo Crews first Chefwear range. Combining quality raw materials, eye for detail and our passion for original design, we are so proud to share this premium range of chefwear with you. We’re walking the talk. Every element of our chefwear range has been put to the test by partnering with leading chefs to wear trial our designs; ensuring every style meets the daily demands of modern kitchens and modern chefs.
We are obsessed with quality, which is why every piece in our chefwear range has been designed with considered purpose. You can’t fake quality. We invite you to try the Cargo Crew difference. Cargo Crew Chefwear – Built to Work!
There's a modernity to the Cargo Crew pieces. My team loves the denim look chef shirts and the aprons are incredible!” — CHEF CURTIS STONE GLOBAL AMBASSADOR

" We have open kitchens at the restaurants and often guests see you behind the stoves before they taste your food. In our case, a polished uniform is often the first impression you make on a guest. Cargo Crew speaks to the importance of a look that says high standards with a relaxed comfort to get the job done." — Chef Curtis Stone Global Ambassador
