Re: scrubs

I like the 3-pocket scrub tops at http://hawaiianfabric.com -- fairly lightweight, but humongous variety of great patterns that cheer up patients and you're not likely to run into someone else wearing the same thing. I signed up for the sale e-mails and only buy when they're on sale.

Re: scrubs

I'm 6'5" and thin. All scrubs seem to be way to short or they think tall=fat too. Even the "tall" scrubs are too short. Anybody know any good scrubs for tall people.

Re: scrubs

I buy MOBB scrubs for the pockets and the price. Just google that. They are generally about $22 a set and you can never have enough pockets.

Careful, amigo - the last sets of scrubs I purchased were MOBB, tons of pockets as per my pref, and after laundering them I came to realize they were cut for women, despite the "unisex" tagging: the pants were crotch-binding low-rise and the tops were cut a little too short for my prefference (reach up for supplies and flash the world my navel) so I couldn't return them because of washing them before wearing.

Lesson learned - TRY THEM ON IN THE STORE first. Too many companies are coming out with low-rise, short-top, a$$-grabbing uniforms that are definitely NOT unisex, despite their claims.

Re: scrubs

I recently purchased two sets of scrubs from aviatorscrubs.com, and I love them. I will definately buy some more when I "phase out" my next set of old scrubs.

Re: scrubs

This is coming from a Swede, and thus someone from another cultural context than you guys. Our jobs are the same though. I have browsed through some threads in this awesome forum and every now and then this discussion about scrubs comes up, and some aspects regarding scrubs in the US fascinate me!

*You seem to think it is very important to be able to choose and pick your color and layout of the scrubs. here they are available in three colors, namely blue, white and green (green for people working in the OR only). i have never even thought about wanting to have red, yellow, or any other color for that matter. it is a workplace and not a fashion show. coming from a military background i kinda like the uniformity of working in a hospital.

*you have to buy your clothes whereas here they are provided by the workplace. we are under stern orders to change them every day. buying and washing them yourselves, how often do you change scrubs? we don't even wear scrubs to and from work, we have to change to a new set each time we arrive at work.

not critisism on my part, like i said, i just find the differences fascinating.

Re: scrubs

I have seen guys wear all kinds of scrubs, there is a guy I wokr with that has alot of the "female type" prints as well. Most guys I see though wear the solid colors. I myself have had a favorite pair of scrubs for 4 years!!, but they still look good and I hate buying new clothes. There is now place here in OK that I know of that provides scrubs at work, except when you work in OR. Other than that you provide your own.
