From now on, a breath of fresh air is blowing through the kitchen and service: Strauss is fully committing to cooling comfort in its new arrivals for hotels and catering, using noble piqué fabric. The comfortable Hybrid chef's shirts as well as piqué-blouses and -shirts combine strong functionality with an elegant, modern appearance.

New at the stove: clever fabric blend

Things heat up in the kitchen – flames flare, fat splashes and the grill glows! Ventilation must be spot on, otherwise it becomes unbearable. This also applies to chef's clothing: For the new e.s. Hybrid chef's shirts for ladies' and men, Strauss therefore combines hard-wearing woven fabric in a smart herringbone look – placed in particularly heavily used areas – with airy piqué fabric on the back and arms. The mesh-like structure of piqué not only looks elegant and is particularly flexible, but also ensures constant air exchange and a pleasantly cooling effect.

Freshly served: cool piqué style

These perfect ventilation properties of piqué also benefit the new e.s. piqué business blouses and shirts, giving the service outfit a cool upgrade. And this is also true visually: because the mix of sporty polo shirts fabric and classic business style brings a casual twist to the chic Gastro concept. The soft, flexible cotton mix also makes the blouses and shirts exceptionally comfortable. This means any strain in physically demanding hotel and service jobs quickly evaporates.
