Any thoughts on Iguana, Urbane or Dickies Scrubs?

[michaelarose]

I've seen Iguana scrubs out there and I bought some, haven't worn them yet.

I also like Dickies and Urbane, but I was wondering as far as Dickies, what are their skirts like.

And Urbane, are their shoes any good?

I own one pair of Iguana scrubs HATE them! They wrinkle so easily, I cannot get away without ironing them! The fabric feels nice, but they just get too wrinkled for me, no matter what I do to them.

I just want to point out that this problem is unique to the Medflex I fabric. The newer editions, Medflex II and Medflex III, do not need ironing. I think that IguanaMed are the most comfortable fabric, but I no longer buy the original Medflex I fabric for this reason. Personally, I like Landau the best though because the tops have 4 pockets!

That's good to know... maybe I'll have to try them out again! Thanks!

I (personally) love Landau just because the cut looks smart and fits well (we wear navy scrubs, thank goodness cos I really hate patterned ones!). I have one top in the Urbane range which i don't like because it's too short and is cut weird (says its cut to give you shape, which is nice but it should be longer!) plus i think they are cut small (which isnt a problem but i like a little room in mine)

But, each to their own, try as many on as you can, you'll know what feels right for you!

i just bought the Iguana med flex II scrub top and the cargo pant bottoms... the tops are fitted so if you want it baggy order one size bigger... I LOVE Them and all of the hidden pockets!!!!:heartbeat

I hate the urbane scrub bottoms! I have a pair of the work it, where the top is supposed to flip over to make them low rise, they are so tight and I am a medium- but the large in the legs are way too big...I am 5'7 and would tell those that are my height or taller to go with long...

the tops are okay, but they fit small, and the one pocket does not get me very far, I end up wearing a jacket with it to make room...

They are cute, wash well- fade after too much washing-

Junior fit completely....

I wear the tops with Landau bottoms- they match up pretty well in color...

Iguana scrubs iron terribly!

Dickies are what I see a lot of the girls wear, they seem pretty comfortable- I might try that later.

i have one pair of urbane scrub pants w/ the flip over top in small ( i wear extra small in their boot cut drawstring pants) and the stupid band got SO tight.

I love Dickies. The sandwashed varieties are so soft; plus the brand offers so many more cuts now. I love the "W" line, it flatters my curvy figure.

My Iguana scrubs are the ONLY scrubs out of my 9 yrs of working in healthcare that shrank!! :angryfire The fabric wrinkled very easily. I love Dickies Workwear scrubs and urbane pants. Urbane has finally started making tops with a pocket on each side. Woo hoo!

Where are these Urbane tops with pockets on each side?? That's just what I need! I love Urbane scrubs, but those tops just don't have enough pockets. I got cargo pants to help make up for what the tops lack in pockets.

I've had Landau & Cherokee brands before. Didn't like Cherokee at all, they weren't a very cute, feminine cute and the bottom were slightly short on me, which looks really stupid in a flare leg style. Landau is OK...I wasn't thrilled with their pants (again the flare leg was just a tad too short on me), and while the tops are AWESOME for pockets, they are so long on me that it looks sloppy. Some people complain that Urbane tops are too short, but I think they're perfect (except for the pocket issue, lol).

My husband wears Cherokee scrubs. He's 6'1"ish and he needs a tall pant. I think their tops run a little big, IMO. I will say that they look great wash after wash.

Any advice on scrubs for tall people (that are still fashionable). I am 5-7 and wear a sz 1 in pants. I usually need a S or XS in scrubs, depending on the brand, but need a very long inseam ( i am all legs). I have a hard time finding these. So far, Greys Anatomy work best, but still arent great..its frustrating!!!

I prefer solid color scrubs with contrasted trim and print jackets.

Love Urbane's color combos - hate, hate, hate their lack of pockets. They only make a couple styles that have more than one pocket and even on them the pockets are still silly small.

I prefer Dickies, especially the sandwashed stuff but they don't have as good of color selection.

I returned the one set of Iguana scrubs I bought because I hated the fit.
