**** them! All this focus on manly Harris supporters is pretty funny lately. Can't imagine anyone who wears camo being Harris supporters. Bunch of weird creepy older white guys dancing around in their Harris/Walz shirts too. Really weird stuff going on right now.



EDIT to include more context from owners husbands IG:

Taking a break from my semi-permanent social media hiatus to share something I'm super stoked about: Harris-Walz-@hedleyandbennett aprons went live on the @kamalaharris store today! … We've been doing lots of fun stuff at H&B the last few years, but getting to team up with the Harris-Walz campaign to create these aprons is a highlight. (And to be name-dropped alongside other awesome merch collaborators like Ulla Johnson and Thom Brown is pretty cool too). So go get your aprons. Support Harris-Walz. Save the country. And cook like a commander in chief!

Not sure what to make of this comment. If you cook with any real skill, you either wear an apron or constantly ruin clothes.

Who pays 95 dollars on an apron? Use a throw down towel the wife never uses. Come on folks, this is like buying the 250 dollar cast iron skillet from Yeti. But hey, if you want to waste money like that, whom am I stop you.

I still find it funny that they'll call Walz "Coach" yet slander Tuberville as a dumb football coach. Then they expect middle age men to follow along.

Exactly. Skilled cooking takes high heat, rapid movements, and getting the occasional splatter is inevitable. Sometimes you need to wipe a hand quickly and don't have time to look for a towel. Cooking often correlates but doesn't necessarily translate to skill.

Making a bologna sandwich and opening a bag of Cheetos doesn't count as "cooking often". HTH

Nothing to do with skill. The more skillful you become, i.e. really work at your cooking, the more you're likely wearing a good apron. We have several h&b aprons. Maybe not so much anymore!

The dedication to their religion by some of these companies is astounding, and astoundingly dumb.

I'm not going to go to their website but is this camo apron a one-off or are hunters, etc their primary customer? Thanks for the head's up OP......they don't want my money obviously.
Pretty sure most of you don’t know me.

No, their customers are serious chefs and cooks in the restaurant industry. Was pretty surprised to see that which is why I posted. Not smart business decision.

Where do you see it? That doesn't look like their website.

Is it possible someone else ordered in bulk with custom embroidery. It's an option.

This has become a very interesting conversation.....
I'm amazed at the amount of insistence at my cooking skills and what I make.

All because I dared call out "the texags chef" on needing an apron.

They are making it FOR the Harris campaign to sell on their web page:

I am one of those serious chefs and will return mine to them. I'm not sure what condition I want to send it back in. I didn't wear it much because the lent from our kitchen towels would cover the apron.
Not everyone gets the same version of me. One person might tell you I have an amazing beautiful soul. Another might tell you I’m a cold-hearted a$$^ole. Believe them both. I don’t treat people badly. I treat them accordingly - unknown

Did some digging, here is the link since OP didn't provide one. Question, why is OP looking at the Harris Walz merch website?

Are they making it for Harris-Walz as a show of support/are they donating proceeds from the sales to the campaign? Or did the campaign buy HB aprons to embroider and sell? It's an important distinction.

I love my HB apron, it's by far the best one I own.

This is the owners husband IG. Not I didn't spend hours (or anything close reseraching this crap). Just saw a product I wanted to buy and came across this thanks to X.
