The Bear - Where to buy the 'Original Beef' T-shirt
The Bear season three dropped on streaming service Disney+ in late June, treating fans to more time with their favourite chefs Carmy, Sydney, cousin Richie and the rest of the kitchen crew.
It's not just the cast that has garnered attention, though. Much like Michelle Keegan's Fool Me Once wardrobe, Eddie's Hellfire Club T-shirt from Stranger Things and Joel's waxed jacket in The Last of Us, the staff uniform in FX's hit show has proven to be a much-coveted item.
We're talking about the Original Beef of Chicagoland T-shirt, of course, donned by several of the characters in the show, and we've shared exactly where you can buy yours, plus some other fun show merchandise here.
The Bear – 'Original Beef' T-shirt
The T-shirt is made to order via Etsy and is a certified bargain, available with 30% off in the current sale (now £12.59). Get it in the signature navy blue, or mix it up with a further six colour options including light blue. Delivery in the UK will set you back an additional £2.49.
You can also purchase it with free delivery via Amazon, with prices starting from £14.99.

The T-shirt may be unofficial merchandise but it is certainly the closest fans will get to owning the real uniform.
Made from 100% cotton, the sizes range from XS all the way up to XXL and there are plenty of colours to choose from too: black, white, red, navy, yellow, pink, maroon, grey, brown, green, charcoal and baby blue.
Viewers may recall "cousin" Richie wearing a variation of the Original Beef top in The Bear season two after making a slight mistake when ordering the new staff uniform.
"Your shirt says 'Original Berf'," Carmy remarked, with Richie casually responding that it's a "printing mistake — a collector's item".
Collector's item, you say?
The Bear – Richie's 'Original Berf' T-shirt
Those who'd prefer to own the "collector's" edition can find it via Amazon from £14.99.
You can also get one made to order via Etsy, and for a limited time you can snap it up with 30% off, down from £17.99 to £12.59.
The Original Berf top is available to order in seven shades, in sizes S, M, L, XL, 2XL and 3XL (with the price varying slightly depending on the size ordered).
The Bear – Carmy's apron
Fancy channelling some of Carmy the chef in your own kitchen?
Fans in the UK can now get their hands on the apron worn by Jeremy Allen White in the show, thanks to a new partnership – and limited edition line – from oven brand Gozney and kitchen brand Hedley & Bennett.
The collaboration has resulted in a new version of Hedley & Bennett’s world-famous aprons available in a fetching Sunrise (red) shade retailling for £114.99.
Carmy's exact colour apron, French Blue, is sadly only available to buy in the US ($105) still, so this Gozney deal is a real steal.
Be warned, the apron is limited edition, so once it's gone - it's gone.
The Bear – 'Original Beef' hoodie
This Original Beef of Chicagoland hoodie is great for snuggling up in during the winter when carrying out a Bear re-watch marathon.
The hoodie features a hand-printed logo – and is made from 100% cotton, with 12 colour options available.
You can pick it up via Etsy currently with 25% off the RRP (now £20.25, was £27). The item ships from the UK, with delivery costs starting from £4.
The Bear – 'Original Beef' cap
Not a T-shirt fan? You can get the Original Beef of Chicagoland logo in hat form too.
This 'Trucker cap' is made to order and is available in six different colours. We're fans of the two-colour combo options: navy and white, black and white, and charcoal and white. You can pick one up for under £30 currently (£25.79), with delivery setting you back £3.67.
The Bear – Carmy's famous jacket
It's the patchwork, multi-coloured jacket that makes Jeremy Allen White's eyes pop and certainly cemented the chef as a Michelin-star style icon.
We're talking of course about the NN.07 boxy Gael checkered jacket, with Carmy repping the Brown Check colour combination. It's definitely something of an investment piece (£259), but the price hasn't put off some The Bear fans, with the jacket currently sold out online.
Thankfully though, END has confirmed that it will be restocking the jacket again in September, so make sure to check back in again then.
Those looking to get a similar-style jacket for a fraction of the price can definitely find some worthy dupes online. One Etsy seller has reproduced the jacket and has received an average 4.5 star rating from happy customers. Prices start from £68, going up to £118.
Carhartt's WIP beckley coat (in multi) is also both smart and very similar to Carmy's, and available in the END sale currently for £159 (was £289).
The Bear – 'Yes Chef' embroidered T-shirt
After a slightly more subtle nod to the hit show? We've spotted this sweet 'Yes, chef!' T-shirt that features two embroidered tinned tomato cans with the famous phrase in a speech bubble.
Those in the know will remember Carmy's late brother Michael left a secret message for his younger sibling in the sauce...
Available via Etsy in sizes small to 4XL, and yours for £25 plus delivery.
The Bear – 'Every Second Counts' sign
The Bear season 2 featured a number of big-name guest stars – including English acting royalty Olivia Colman.
Viewers saw Ebon Moss-Bachrach and Colman come together in one sweet scene, where Richie helps Terry to peel mushrooms.
After Terry departs, Richie stumbles across the 'Every Second Counts' sign in the professional kitchen, which is particularly poignant given the conversation they just shared.
You can get an exact replica of the sign from Etsy for £13.754 (under-clock placement optional).
The Bear – 'Let It Rip' coffee mug
The iconic three words those kitchen cousins live by. "Let it rip" became the show's motto following the season-one finale when Richie finally gave Carmy his brother Mikey's note: "I love you, dude. Let it rip."
You can get your hands on a 'Let It Rip' coffee mug printed in Mikey's handwriting via Etsy, which will set you back £19.10.
It also has the Original Beef of Chicagoland logo available in mug form too – pick one up for £8.99, also via Etsy.
The Bear – 'Let It Rip' wall print
Want your The Bear support front and centre for all to see at home? We're fans of this tomato tin 'Let It Rip' print, which gives a stylish, subtle nod to the show. IYKYK.
Those who are able to print it out themselves can buy the digital download of the design for £7.64, which is emailed to you instantly shortly after purchase.
If you'd rather it printed professionally and have it sent to your door, you can get the same design from £16.17 via Etsy. Three sizes are available – 21x30cm, 30x40cm and 50x70cm – with prices varying depending on the size you opt for.
The Bear seasons 1-3 are available to stream on Hulu in the US and Disney+ in the UK.
