Good news for fans of The Bear: the fifth season – confirmed to be the final season – is back on Disney+, and takes a huge risk (which mostly pays off).
While Jeremy Allen White and co have become stars in their own right now, it's not just the cast that has garnered attention. Much like Ryland Grace's cardigan in Project Hail Mary, 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 popular, much-coveted item amongst fans.
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.
The Bear – 'Original Beef' T-shirt - now 30% off

The T-shirt may be unofficial merchandise, but it is certainly the closest fans will get to owning the real uniform.
The Bear – Richie's 'Original Berf' T-shirt
'The Original Berf of Chicagoland' T-shirt
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?
Well, 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).
Those who'd prefer to own the "collector's" edition can snap it up via Etsy with a 20% discount, down to £8.99 or via Amazon from £14.99.
The Bear – 'Original Beef' hoodie
The Bear 'Original Beef of Chicagoland' 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 30% off the RRP (now £21.70, was £30). The item ships from the UK, with delivery costs starting from £4.
The Bear – 'Original Beef' cap
The Original Beef of Chicagoland Baseball Cap
Not a T-shirt fan? You can get the Original Beef of Chicagoland logo in hat form too.
This 'baseball cap' is available in black and in one size - Amazon is currently selling it for £22.88. If you're willing to pay to get one dispatched from the US, Etsy is selling a navy Original Beef cap and navy Original Berf cap too.
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.
Men's Colorblock Wool Jacket - The Bear Inspired
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 £70, going up to £118.
The Bear – 'Yes Chef' embroidered T-shirt
Yes Chef Embroidered T-shirt - The Clique Clothing
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.
The Bear 'Every Second Counts' sign
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 £13.99.
Want something more subtle? There's a set of four pens (though you can also buy them separately), each with the slogans 'Let it Rip', 'Every Second Counts', 'The Original Beef of Chicagoland' and 'Yes Chef' from Etsy for £10.19.
The Bear seasons 1-4 are available to stream on Disney+ in the UK.
