Below: Stonehenge heavyweight linen apron from Libeco; $120 at Belgian Haus.

Below: Swedish-born, Brooklyn-based designer Lotta Jansdotter’s Tang apron, imprinted with a botanical graphic, $55 (down from $89) at Jansdotter.

Below: Rienzi Handy Garden Apron (a favorite of reader Sarah Krohn); go to Rienzi for pricing and ordering information.

Below: Williams-Sonoma Heavyweight Canvas Apron; available in nine colors; $19 or $24 (depending on the color) at Williams-Sonoma.

Below: Bonbon Plume Apron; from venerable French fabric company Les Toiles de Soleil; $79 at Conran.

I love my Rienzi apron. I use a garden apron in the kitchen. It has a split down the center in front, below three pockets, which makes it easy to bend and move.

They also have kitchen aprons with
“a sense of flair for fashion and nod to nostalgia”

interesting… i was going to make aprons this week out of linen. i print fabric, and it can be messy. could not find the size or style that i wanted, and had designed something similar to the libeco…

I love these ! I live in a house full of men (hubby and 3 sons) and I can see my boys grabbing one of these aprons and using them!
Thanks so much !
