Schlesinger’s has made thousands of NYPD uniforms over the years, and the same goes for hospitality uniforms like waiters and chef’s uniforms. In fact, these types of uniforms are the ones that we replace parts of (or all of) more than any other. Why? Because of what they constantly go through.
NYPD Police Uniforms: There are many parts to an NYPD uniform, and at one time or another every police officer has to replace some of the pieces. Police are more likely to get into altercations than those in other lines of work, and a shirt might get ripped, buttons might get torn off, or pants can get torn while climbing a chain-link fence. Luckily Schlesinger’s Uniforms is there to help them get their police uniform looking its best in as short a time as possible.
Chef Uniforms: It’s no surprise that chef’s often need to come to us when a stain in their uniform just won’t come out. Of course, some chefs care less than others, thinking of the stains they get as a sort of “seasoning” on their clothes. Others, however, are more out in the open, whether it’s because they’re more well known or because they’re in a open kitchen that’s viewable by the public. Many chefs, however, can hide in the kitchen, which certainly doesn’t hold true for…
The Wait Staff: The waitstaff is always in front of the public, whether they’re a waitress, a busboy, or in catering. Whenever you’re around food, there are always going to be stains. This is doubly true when there’s a chance you’ll bump into other wait staff moving around quickly.
It doesn’t matter whether the entire uniform needs to be replaced or just a small piece, Schlesinger’s Uniforms will be there to fix the problem. Contact us or stop by today!
The average daytime temperature in Hawaii is 85 degrees in summer. When it really gets cold in the middle of winter, the average daytime temperature is 78 degrees. If we were selling uniforms to the people of Hawaii, they’d need just one style of uniform to get them through the year.
New York City is not Hawaii. New York gets hot in the summer (made even hotter by the pavement) and cold in the winter (made even colder by the shadows of the buildings and the wind tunnels those buildings create). Because of these wild temperature changes throughout the year, it’s important to think about the employees who might need different custom uniforms to get them through the year.
Take Doormen for example. You want them to look good 365 days a year, but you also want them to be comfortable so that they can perform their duties with a smile. Making sure that they have the proper clothes will protect them from the wind in winter and help them to shed heat in the summer. Matching hats can also help them weather the weather, so why not offer them a wider brim for when it’s snowing?
Valet drivers are another good example of someone wearing a custom uniform who needs something different in winter than in summer. Too many valets wear their street coats over their uniforms, which hides their uniforms and decreases customer trust. A heavier uniform (or custom coats and jackets) in winter can make sure that company styles and logos are never hidden .
If your employees work outdoors, make sure that they’re comfortable with the best custom uniforms available from Schlesinger’s Uniforms!
