Starbucks fans are only just learning why some baristas wear black aprons

Starbucks fans are only just finding out why some baristas wear black aprons rather than the classic green, and it isn't a case of personal preference. Although green is the colour most people will associate with Starbucks baristas' aprons, they also come in shades of black, orange, and even red, with each one having a significant meaning.

Most employees will wear green aprons, which can be embellished according to their various accomplishments or requirements. For example, those who have served in the military or graduated from the Starbucks College Achievement Plan may wear special patches. while branches in Malaysia brail embroidered onto deaf workers' aprons.
