Srubs

Nurses Men

Published

Alright so I'm new to nursing and looking for good quality scrubs. What is the best brand, fit for guys. I see a lot of people talking about the Koi, but unfortunately they don't make them in the color I need (Royal).

Anyone have any thoughts on greys anatomy vs dickies sandwashed?

Thanks for any help.

most scrubs brands will do, i don't pay more than $15 for a bottom or top.

I get Aviators (http://www.aviatorscrubs.com)... More expensive than most, but extremely durable (my oldest ones have held up to a lot of washing over 2 years) and pockets! Lots of pockets! You can order the pants with a zipper also... A must for men. The web site is pretty lame, but I love the scrubs.

what the, who needs a zipper? never heard that one before, ha.

as a man, i fear zippers, ouch (ben stiller in, there's something about mary).

I have several sets of Cherokee scrubs in Royal Blue and they are great. Dickie's scrub tops tend to be cut narrow, IE not much shoulder room or room to move. Some of the other brands you mentioned are pricey and have thin material.

I am really liking my S.M.A.R.T. Scrubs.

The pants have 4 huge cargo pockets, 2 regular "slash" pockets and a pocket below the left knee with a snap where I keep my phone/wallet and four loops for hanging stuff on. The drawstring on the waist is like a big, heavy shoe lace, ties easily and stays tied.

They're also soft, comfortable and seem pretty durable so far. The company says they should last about 7 years, adn in my opinion that justifys a little extra cost.

And they're availalbe in short lengths, which for me was huge.

I thought about Aviators, and do like scrubs with a fly, but there's no local retailer here and they're expensive with what seemed like a difficult return policy.

S.M.A.R.T. Scrubs actually sends a prepaid return envelope with every order and their customer service/order line has been fantastic.

I think I'll be sticking with them.
