What's so Great about the Linen Apron?
Traditionally, aprons have been made from cotton and/or polyester. However, the linen apron might just be the versatile garment you've been looking for - and here's why.
- Strength and durability. Linen is made from flax, a plant with extremely tough fibres. Accordingly, linen aprons are extremely durable and can withstand different environments - kitchens, workshops, etc. - with ease. Linen even transforms with age, becoming even more supple and touchable. The colour will also fade with vintage elegance, which is extremely rare among fabrics. In these days of fast fashion, where clothes end up as rags after a few washes, linen's ability to last for years is a breath of fresh air.
- Sustainability. Accordingly, linen aprons can last for a surprising amount of time without experiencing any of the typical wear and tear you might expect from flimsier fabrics. Once you've got a linen apron, you can consider it your long-term companion in the kitchen, workshop, studio, class, etc.
- Breathability. Now, you may assume that because women's linen is strong and durable, it must be like wearing a suit of armour - but luckily, that isn't the case at all. Due to the porous nature of their fibres, linen aprons are refreshingly airy, wicking away and absorbing excess moisture. For activities that involve spills or splashes, a linen apron is an ideal choice, especually when paired with linen pants.
- Practicality. Our linen apron include a handily-sized pocket at the front to stow objects and relieve neck strain.
And finally...
- Style - Now, obviously, comfort is king, but a little style never went amiss either. Our linen aprons in Canada are designed to elegantly complement the figure of its wearer. Tie it around your waist, leave it loose; it doesn't matter...linen never goes out of style, and a linen apron has a timeless charm. Read More
