Humble at first sight, linen aprons are one of the most important accessories for professional chefs and generally everyone who spends time in the kitchen. Besides that, the durable and long-lasting apron is perfect for gardening, housework, or crafting like pottery and painting. At Linen Tales, we make all our aprons from 100% natural European linen that is pre-softened and pre-shrunk, so the aprons are soft to touch and keeps their form and size after washing.
The main purpose of an apron is to protect your clothing from dirt and splashes (while looking stylish, too!). But there are many styles, shapes, and forms of linen aprons, and we do have a handful of options here at Linen Tales. So which one is best for you and how to choose?

Simple and straightforward, Daily Apron is one of the most popular apron styles. A perfect choice to always have at hand in the kitchen or garden. It has two front pockets for storing handy tools and items. While the neck strap is fixed, the tie closure at the back lets you adjust the size.

Our linen aprons are made from easy care, pre-washed linen. It is super soft, easy to wash, and looks spectacular.

After sewing, they were pre-washed to give them structure, softness, and a rustic look. Linen Apron Regular comes in different colors: natural, gray, navy, mustard, blue, graphite grey, and purple. There will be more colors in the future.
