Description
The Artisan Collection by Reprime RP137 is a full-length heavy cotton canvas bib apron with multiple utility pockets, cross-back straps, and reinforced stress points. The heavy canvas construction gives this apron the durability and premium heft that craft brewery taprooms, artisan coffee shops, butcher counters, and woodworking studios need for daily service wear. The cross-back strap design distributes weight across the shoulders instead of the neck, which matters for all-day wear in professional kitchens and workshop environments. The 100% cotton canvas is a standout screen print and embroidery substrate.
Screen printing is the primary decoration method. The flat bib panel above the pockets provides a large, rigid print surface. The heavy cotton canvas holds plastisol with sharp edges and supports water-based and discharge inks for a soft, no-hand print result. Embroidery works on the bib and pocket areas with a cut-away stabilizer; the canvas weight supports full stitch density without puckering. DTF transfers bond at standard press settings on the cotton face. Patches (woven, leather, PVC) sew directly onto the canvas for a branded artisan look. HTV for names and small text.
