Does anyone know of any good online stores that sell white scrub pants that aren't as transparent? I start nursing school in July and the pants the school offers are pretty thin, even nude underwear show. Prefer not to show my bum,lol.

www.allheart.com has no-see-through white pants- I've never worn them though so I have no idea what they feel like on.
I purchased my white pants at a local scrub store. I picked the Peaches brand because they have back pockets that do a great job of hiding my rear and some pretty handy cargo pockets on the side.
Good luck on your search!

We had to wear white pants in my CNA class, and most of us ended up buying Cherokee Workwear because they seemed less see-through than some other brands. They're fairly thick - one girls wears light gray leggings under hers and you can't see them at all through the pants. I can't speak to how sturdy they are over the long term though, as we only had to wear them for 8 clinical days. Most online scrub stores seem to carry them.
I am so grateful that for nursing school we get to wear maroon scrubs instead of white!

I love the Dickies, they cost a little more, but they look good, they're comfy and not transparent at all. Well worth the extra couple bucks.

I like Cherokee, cheap but work, however they run BIG. Be forewarned you will probably be buying more as white pants don't last long!!

Believe it or not, Walmart actually has decent ones. You can get them online or at the store. I have to wear them for clinical and you can't see my panties through them, they have a cargo pocket, and they don't look like they're made for Bigfoot.
I actually got some of my old ones from walmart and love them but for clinicals they are requiring straight legs, walmarts are flared. Don't know how strict they are on this policy though.

I wear Koi brand cargo white pants. There are pockets on the butt and then I wear nude undies with nude colored support hose (no varicose veins for me!).

I have Dickies flare leg pants from Allheart.com. Try beige colored underwear underneath your whites because white underwear shows everything.

I like the Landau with reg pockets and double cargo pockets - Great fit - not transparent - lots of pocket storage...

Best thing to do is talk to your clinical instructor about other brands/styles they will allow you to wear before you buy anything, or you may end up being sent home for not being "in uniform" for a clinical.
