What makes an Aabelard apron?

An Aabelard apron is made from quality material. We use waxed cotton – fabric developed over years to suit the toughest rigors of outdoor life – combined with double-faced soft Italian leather.

Heavyweight antiqued brass buckles and fixings make the Aabelard apron as durable as it is beautiful. They are also very generously proportioned with no skimping on fabric – because there’s nothing worse than an apron that doesn’t go all the way! Perfect for the big or tall. Whether you’re a home cook, hobbyist, gardener, professional or just plain messy, the Aabelard apron is for you.

We think an Aabelard apron makes the perfect gift for men and women, especially for those who are hard to buy for! Whoever you're buying for, an Aabelard apron makes a thoughtful and long-lasting present. We can make your gift even more special by customising it for you.

Traditional Scottish waxed cotton

Our densely-woven waxed cotton fabric has a dry finish, giving it a wonderful matt appearance, even more so than traditional waxed cotton.

It’s water-resistant, durable and breathable. The natural characteristics of the fabric give it a slightly distressed appearance and a certain understated luxury.

Full grain leather

Full grain leather

If you’re going to create a masterpiece, be it in the art studio or the kitchen, you want flexibility and comfort as well as style.

We use buttery Italian leather, coloured with soluble dyes and lovingly finished with a second waxed coating. Tonal variation or marks are an integral part of the leather, which will age beautifully over time.

An iconic finish

Our aprons are hand cut and finished to achieve a consistently outstanding level of quality.

Please read our product care guide carefully to ensure the longevity and durability of your apron, so it looks even more stylish with use.

Kind Words

A proper piece of kit. So chuffed. It looks fantastic. As my wife put it, it’s the perfect gift for the man who already has everything (and is hard to please.)

I have just ordered my second apron as I bought one for a friend and then was really jealous!
