chef's hats/toques


Explanation:
http://www.linguee.de/en-de/toques.html;
The traditional chef's uniform, including toque (traditional hat), white double breasted jacket, and checked pants are instantly recognized by most members of the Western world, especially in this day of television's celebrity chefs. What isn't obvious is the origins, generally for practical reasons, of each item.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chef's_uniform;
We have an extensive line of chef hats available for immediate shipment and for customization. Discover the Garrison Hat, a military-inspired 4-inch chef's hat that is one-size-fits-all and features premium cording. Try our Premium Multi-Use Chef Hat, in either 7- or 10-inch, that uses terry cloth banning on the inside to absorb moisture and keep that sweat off your brow. Go for our disposable standard hats that feature up to 10-inches of vertical pleat or European Curve. Choose from high quality fabrics and cording to make your hats unique.
