Question Best Plus Sized Scrubs?

Can anyone recommend some comfortable plus sized scrubs? I am having a horrible time trying to find any that fit right. I am 5'10". I usually run around a 22/24. My main problem is that I have a large chest and my father's broad shoulders. Any help that you can give would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.

We have a local Uniform Advantage and I find their brand plus size fit great. They have a website also.

www.uniformadvantage.com

and this is their brand http://www.uniformadvantage.com/pages/dpt/ua-scrubs.asp

I have large breasts as well. If it weren't for them I could be wearing a large. I would love to have a breast reduction but that's a whole other thread.

I work with a nurse who weighs over 300 pounds and has a large bust size. She only wears Landau brand scrubs, and swears by them.

Re: Best Plus Sized Scrubs?

Unfortunately, I have a big everything--- chest, butt, hips, thighs. I started in Landau but found they didn't really fit me well and have a tendency to wear out fast. I bought Cherokee since that is what my clinical uniforms are and they wear like iron. I just love how they fit, but I lost some weight and now I spend my whole shift hitching up my pants.

I'm plus sized but petite. I only buy Landau now because every time I wore their uniforms people asked if I lost weight!

I wear landau now for a looser top, and their length covers up my large belly. I found that other tops are too short,esp cherokee.
