Love the design and quality. Use it daily.

Love my waxed Canvas Apron! Quality in every aspect and the more I wear it the better it gets.

Love the Chilao products! The T-shirt is so comfy!

Purchased the Waxed Canvas Vasquez for my boyfriend for his birthday, and he loved it! Perfect bag for his everyday work supplies and travel.
The company had such helpful communication while I was shopping and even sent it in discrete packaging to keep it a surprise.
Great people and products! Can’t recommend them enough!

I never thought an apron could alter my life in such a dramatic fashion, but here we are. This isn't just any apron; this is a custom Japanese selvage denim apron, and let me tell you, it’s an experience.

From the moment I unwrapped this denim wonder, I felt a strange but compelling urge to wear it immediately. And not just over my clothes. No, no, this apron demanded to be worn against bare skin. So, in a moment of wild abandon, I stripped down and donned this masterpiece.

The sensation was nothing short of magical. As the denim touched my naked body, it felt as though millions of tiny people were gently massaging my skin, each one working tirelessly to deliver the ultimate spa experience. I could almost hear them saying, "Welcome, our new overlord, to the realm of comfort and style!"

The apron quickly became an extension of myself. I wear it everywhere now. Cooking? Of course. Gardening? Naturally. Grocery shopping? Why not! The local checkout clerks might give me strange looks, but they don’t understand—they haven’t felt the embrace of Japanese selvage denim.

Every time I put those sturdy straps around me, I’m reminded of my newfound denim-clad identity. I am one with the apron. My life has become a blend of artisanal craftsmanship and ultimate luxury. Plus, I’ve noticed a strange increase in my confidence. Who knew an apron could do all that?

So, if you're considering buying this custom Japanese selvage denim apron, just do it. Your naked body (and perhaps your neighbors) will thank you.

Purchased an apron and tote as a gift for more boyfriend and he couldn’t be happier! He was so surprised about the quality and detail of both items! Very happy with the purchase and will be back for more. Also, huge shoutout to the team that are very responsive !!!

"Repurpose" at its finest!
Thanks guys!

This waxed canvas apron has already taken place as my kitchen workhorse, It's beautifully made, the stitching is super sturdy, pocket layout is great finally have a place for everything while I'm wearing it. I look forward to using it for years to come while wear patterns and stains become engrained in the fabric like stories. The team was also great to work with, I needed some adjustments made and they had it done quicker than I could have expected. I expect my friendship with Chilao to be a long one.

My wife bought this apron for me as a gift. I am blown away by the quality materials, attention to detail and versatility of this apron. I’ve worn it to grill, to do wood work, and to make pasta already. My friends in the hospitality industry were over making pasta with me and they both wanted one!! I highly recommend this product and the company. These guys are the real deal!

I realize this tote was crafted for a different purpose, but this bag lady uses it for EVERYTHING! Literally everything, my purse, my lunch, my laptop and my work-out clothes fit. It makes carrying all those things into the office easy. While the Chilao Log Tote is undoubtedly an investment piece, its quality and timeless design make it a worthwhile addition to any fashion-forward individual's collection. The material used to construct the tote is probably my favorite part. As the daughter of a veteran, it gives me some sort of feeling of history and awareness of all our servicemen and women, while totally being chic. The hardware on this bag is not just for show, but for durability and security. I can't wait to add another piece of this collection to my closet.

Love it !!

I purchased two items, the buckhorn apron in the rust color and the newcomb log tote. I chose these items as gifts since I had personally seen them at a craft fair where they were on display. The history behind the materials used really intrigued me as well as the quality. The fact that they items are made in the USA with repurposed deadstock materials and 1940's repurposed military d-rings just makes the products more special & unique.
