tall nursing scrubs

by rndst2

I'm tall, 5'11". Can anyone recommend female nursing scrubs tall enough for me? I know I probably have to special order them online. Just inquiring if anyone has suggestions or experience concerning this matter.

Thank you!

I'm 5"10, and bought some Iguana scrubs in normal length and they fit great. My friend who is 5"10 just bought Cherokee in the tall length and they fit her great as well. It's such a pain...

www.urbanewarehouse.com

Urbane's scrub pants run taller than most, AND on the above website, they offer a "super tall" which comes in a 37" inseam. You can have them hemmed for you on the site or get it done yourself.
I'm 6'0" and I've bought probably 8 pairs of scrub pants from them (34.5" inseam, lol) and I've yet to be disappointed.

I'm 5'11", also. My favorite scrub pants are Landau and Cherokee. I always order my uniforms. I mostly use Tafford, Lydias, UA (Uniform Advantage), and Allheart. Which ever one is having a sale!

One of the local uniform stores had to the nerve to tell me I didn't need tall pants and that I should buy a size bigger so they would hang lower (trying to make a sale). Yeah right. The crotch of the pants hangs low and theres a lot of friction. LOL Pushing a med cart I almost lost my pants. So..never a gain.

I'm 6' and I wear cherokee tall exclusively. You have to be careful with some brands, as even their tall only has a 32" inseam - I need the 34s.

I'd suggest trying Tafford.com if you haven't already. I'm 5'9" and my inseam is 32". I can wear the "regular" inseam from "Tafford", however, I once ordered a pair of tall scrub pants from them, but they turned out to be to long for me. The inseam was 34".

"Tafford" offers terrific deals on quality scrubs, shoes and accessories. They also have an easy exchange and return policy.

Good luck!
