Why We Replace So Many NYPD Uniforms and Chef’s Uniforms

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!

When it comes to a NYPD uniform, there are exacting specifications. Schlesinger’s Uniforms is a certified dealer of NYPD uniforms because the city knows the standards that we live up to (and have lived up to for over 100 years.) Here are a few of the reasons officers come to us:

Custom tailoring: You change sizes, so do we! While sometimes we have to let uniforms out due to weight gain, it can also be because an officer has an exercise routine that’s broadening his chest, or he has lost a significant amount of weight. No matter what the change, we can alter the uniform so that it fits perfectly and is comfortable all day long.

Uniforms Wear Out: Here at Schlesinger’s Uniforms, we offer the best NYPD uniforms available. But some day they’re going to wear out…you’re not going to wear any piece of clothing every day and not have it wear. And that’s why we’re here, to make New York’s Finest look their finest.

Damage: Officers are put into some of the most unfortunate circumstances that society can dish out. Uniforms are going to get damaged, whether it’s during a foot chase or an altercation with a citizen. Sometimes it’s simply the errant nail sticking out of the brick wall that snags a shirt sleeve. Whether you need a single piece or an entire uniform replacement, we’ll tailor one that fits you perfectly.

It doesn’t matter why you need your next NYPD uniform; it only matters that you have access to the best. Contact Schlesinger’s when you need any piece of a uniform replaced.
