From $9.99/ea → View this style
One deep front pocket — functional for staff, practical for decorators.
The single large pocket sits at the waist, leaving the full upper bib as an uninterrupted canvas for embroidery or print. Deep enough to hold a phone, order pad, tools, or utensils. The pocket itself can also be embroidered separately. If you need a completely blank bib surface with no pocket, see the MHGAP004 no-pocket variant.

Decoration Compatibility
Four Ways to Decorate This Apron Blank
The 100% cotton twill construction makes this one of the most versatile decoration blanks available. Here's how each method works on this fabric:
Most Popular
Machine & Hand Embroidery
The medium-weight cotton twill hoops easily and doesn't distort under embroidery tension. Holds stabilizer well. The tight twill weave produces crisp stitch definition — a far better surface than poly blends which can pucker around stitch-dense designs. Perfect for logos, monograms, text, and decorative motifs on the bib or pocket.
High Volume
Screen Printing
The flat twill surface accepts plastisol and water-based inks cleanly. Standard imprint area is 10″ × 12″ on the bib above the pocket — but the total bib surface can accommodate significantly larger designs. Works well for spot-color logos, text, and graphic designs on restaurant, café, and event staff aprons.
Full Color
DTG & Direct-to-Fabric Printing
100% cotton absorbs DTG water-based ink better than any synthetic blend — richer color, better washfastness, softer hand feel. The white base color means no under-base layer is needed for most designs. Ideal for full-color artwork, photographic designs, and gradient-heavy graphics on the bib above the pocket.
Craft & Studio
Fabric Paint, HTV & Block Printing
The cotton surface accepts fabric paint evenly without bleeding. Heat transfer vinyl adheres well at standard HTV temperatures. Block printing produces clean impressions on the flat twill. Popular in art classes, pottery studios, cooking schools, and craft workshops where decorating the apron is part of the experience.
Imprint area: 10″ × 12″ standard — but the actual bib surface is much larger.
The 10″ × 12″ dimension is the standard safe imprint zone used by most print shops. The actual bib surface above the pocket is substantially larger — the full 28″ width and approximately 20–22″ of printable height above the pocket waistline. Large-format designs, full-bib artwork, and edge-approaching graphics are achievable. Contact us to discuss your specific dimensions before placing a large order.
Who Orders These Wholesale
Blank Aprons with Pockets in Bulk — Who Buys & Why
Screen Print Shops
Buy blank white cotton canvas aprons in bulk, print client logos or designs, and ship finished aprons directly. The 28″ × 35″ cotton twill is one of the most consistent blanks available for spot-color screen printing. No poly blends to contend with — 100% cotton every time.
DTG Print Shops
100% cotton absorbs DTG water-based ink better than any synthetic blend — richer color, better washfastness, no under-base needed on white. Print shops order these wholesale aprons in bulk for restaurant, café, and branded merchandise runs.
Embroidery Businesses
The medium-weight cotton twill hoops cleanly, holds stabilizer well, and produces crisp stitch definition. Embroiderers who source blank aprons wholesale and add logos, names, or custom designs for restaurant and hospitality clients order these regularly.
Wholesale Resellers
Businesses that buy bulk aprons with pockets blank, decorate them, and sell through Etsy, Amazon, Faire, or their own stores. The front pocket adds perceived value — decorated aprons with pockets sell at higher price points than no-pocket versions.
Restaurants & Cafés
Food service businesses that source wholesale kitchen aprons with pockets separately and bring them to their preferred local decorator for branding. The pocket is essential for servers and baristas who need to carry order pads, pens, and phones.
Promotional Product Distributors
Promo distributors who need a reliable blank apron for printing for corporate gifting, events, and branded merchandise programs. Consistent quality across every reorder — same dimensions, same fabric weight, every time.

Common Questions
Frequently Asked Questions
Yes — the medium-weight 100% cotton twill hoops easily without distortion, holds embroidery stabilizer well, and produces crisp stitch definition. The tight weave is far more consistent than poly-cotton blends that can pucker around stitch-dense designs. Both machine and hand embroidery work well on this surface. The bib and pocket can be embroidered independently.
The standard imprint area is 10″ wide × 12″ tall on the upper bib, but the actual printable surface is larger. The full bib above the pocket can accommodate significantly wider and taller designs. Contact us before placing a large print order to discuss your specific dimensions and we can advise on the maximum clean print area for your design.
The only difference is the pocket. MHGAP003 (this apron) has one large front pocket at the waist. MHGAP004 has no pocket — giving a fully uninterrupted bib surface from neck to hem. If your design extends into the lower bib or you want maximum decoration freedom across the entire front surface, the MHGAP004 is the better choice.
The neck strap features a metal D-ring or slide buckle for quick, precise adjustment. This is more durable and easier to adjust than a cotton tie system — important when aprons are shared across staff members of different heights. The long waist ties can be knotted at the front or back according to personal preference.
