Picking a gift for a prep manager
A prep manager keeps the kitchen running before service even starts. They're usually in before the line cooks, breaking down cases, portioning proteins, labeling everything with a date and initials, and making sure the cooks have what they need when the rush hits. It's detail work that rarely gets noticed until something is missing. A gift that acknowledges that early-morning, behind-the-scenes grind tends to land well. A tee for the kitchen, a hoodie for the walk-in and a mug for the first coffee of the day all fit the routine. Adding their name or the restaurant's name makes it feel personal, and a second line with something like Prep Lead or Kitchen Crew makes it theirs. If you're buying for a whole kitchen team, the Team Shop lets you order one design and put each person's name on their own shirt.
Prep Manager gift questions
Can I add a restaurant name or a second line?
Many designs have a second line. Type the restaurant, a station or their name there and the preview will update so you can check it before ordering.
Are there designs for kids or babies with this title?
Yes, there are a few kids tees, kids dark tees and a baby onesie for this title. Use the product filter to see them.
Can I order for my whole prep team at once?
Yes. Use the Team Shop: choose one design, paste a list of names and pick a size for each person.
Which design works best for a dark uniform?
The dark tee and dark kids tee options are printed for darker fabrics, so pick those if the shirt will be worn under an apron or over dark clothes.

Adult tees come in S to 3XL. Hoodies, kids tees and onesies list their own sizes on each product page.
