Aviator Scrub Sizing

Published

Getting ready to order some scrubs from Aviator and want to do my bet to make sure I order the right size the first time so I don't have to deal with the hassle of exchanging. I am 5'10" about 195 right now. My jeans are 34/32. When wearing generic scrubs I generally wear large pants and tops, but I have heard that aviator runs large. Looking at the sizing chart I am still not sure if I should stay with large or try mediums. Any words of advice from guys close to my size would be appreciated. Thanks

I'm 6'2", 215lbs, I get Aviator's XL pants and still add 2 inches to the length, I also add 4 inches in length to their XL scrub tops. You're a bit shorter, although I also have some 34/32 pants (as well as 34/34), but I'd still go for the L rather than the M, they are partly polyester but they will still shrink.

I am 6' 200 lbs. Normally I wear 34 jeans. I comfortably wear medium shirt and pants. I do add 2" to the shirts though as I don't want the risk of hearing omg I see your underwear when bending over to count the Pyxsis.

I'm 5'8 and have gone from about 195 to 175 in the past 4 months and I have always fit into size M Aviator Scrubs. The fight is a little more snug but not tight. I prefer this since don't like super baggy scrubs. My waist size sounds to be about the same as yours so I think you can do a medium. I just bought 4 more scrubs sets from them 2 weeks ago!

As a reference FYI, my thumbnail pic is me wearing a medium Dickies scrub top and the one on my profile with all the kids holding toothbrushes is me wearing a medium Aviator scrub top (with thin undershirts) These pics are from 2 years ago when I was on the heavier side, probably mid 180s to low 190s. Hope this helps!

I'm 5'11 175 and I went with the large pants, which seem a little too big, mainly in the length. I've gotten used to them and they are not bad and you could always have someone shorten the legs. But I think the medium would probably work for ya.
