Service Works was founded in 2020 out of a love for elasticated waists, good food, and clothing that works as hard as you do. The brand’s roots lie in a family-run hospitality business, where founder Joe spent his early years in the kitchen — cleaning, prepping, and eventually cooking. During that time, he found himself wearing his chef trousers well beyond the kitchen, often skating in them, and the idea for Service Works was born.

The Classics range keeps all the details of a traditional chef trouser — from the relaxed fit to the practical waistband — but reimagines them in heavier-weight, carefully sourced organic fabrics, making them perfect for everyday wear. For those still working in the trade, the brand offers the lighter, kitchen-friendly Trade Trouser, made from recycled cotton that’s durable yet comfortable through long shifts.

Every pair is crafted in partnership with skilled manufacturing teams in India, supporting local talent and preserving garment-making expertise. Service Works continues to collaborate with independent businesses and passionate individuals, creating clothing that blends professional heritage with street-ready style.
