Review: Great apron. If you're willing to spend this much, definitely recommend - Decided to buy this on a whim just because Olivia Tiedman recommended them. Honestly it's great. I had shoulder surgery a while ago so my range of motion is pretty limited, the ties are long enough to comfortably tie in front or on the side so I don't have to get my bad arm behind my back. I'm about 240 and would like to lose weight, but if you're bigger this still works well. Great material, feels very durable, washes and machine dries without issue, and it's bigger than a lot of other aprons but not TOO big. It definitely helps protect my shirts from oil splatter a lot better and feels like really high quality. I'm not sure if it's worth the price, but I can't speak to how much goes into making them. I can just say that it's a REALLY good apron with a lot of color options.
Review: My hubby was impressed with the quality! - Strong sturdy fabric! I customized this with fabric pens for a special gift! My husband was so impressed with the quality.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Worth Getting It
*by C***9 on December 20, 2025*

A good apron made of some decent material giving it a good quality. It's a little stiff upon arrival, so make sure you put it in a wash bag and wash it.
