scrub tops

TheLastTime · Jan 24, 2011

I got a scrub set for x-mas and just now trying them on and the top fits ok but it has a tie in the back. I can't really tell if its a woman's or unisex. There is not a lot to chose from around here and we have to wear white. I just wondered what you guys thought? I was going to just cut it off, but it does have a purpose I guess as it is kind of wide in the middle (even for me) and you can tighten it up a little by pulling on the draw strings and tying it back up.

Brand name + model number + Google search = your answer.

I'm laughing so hard I can hardly type..... IT TIES IN THE BACK? AND YOU'RE ASKING IF IT'S FOR A GUY?

Dude. Just ... no.

Too bad. It is nice to find a nice top, but if it was meant for girls, I don't think you want to wear it. Somebody either didn't notice or they were spoofing you.

thanks for the replies. I did'nt even think about an internet search. I think I found it, but it doesn't say if it is for a woman or is unisex. Here is a link in case anybody has an idea: http://www.walmart.com/ip/White-Mock-Wrap-Scrub-Top/14659646.

I'm thinking it does look kind of feminine so I might try to return it anyway as I have a gift receipt, but it just went over 30 days so I'm not sure if I can still return it or trade it in or not?

Thread jack time.... I wish women would quit wearing those scrub bottoms with the split up the side of the seam at the ankles that drag on the floor... when you come to work in the snow they look like crap. We did the same thing with bell bottoms in the 70s.. it looked like crap then also.

Oh, it is definitely a male nurse top. Guys here wear tops like that all the time. It keeps the top from being to baggy around the mid section. Dude, if you like it, then wear it. Its a guys top.

Man shirt or not...it looks girly. I wouldn't wear it, lol. You're already wearing all white apparently. Don't make it any worse.

I wear these pants: http://www.savonscrubs.com/landauscrubs/scrubs/8551.html

and this shirt:

I do not tuck the shirt in, and I wear a t-shirt. We have to wear black, which I'm thankful for, but we still have to wear white tennis shoes which seems stupid and is rather goofy looking with the black. I change in to/out of the white shoes in the parking lot.

I didn't get them from that website. That's just the first Yahoo gave me. I got them at a local store for wholesale cost.

Well just found out today we can now wear any color scrubs due to the new owners. I guess I can return the top now. I've got a bunch of different colored tops, but only white and light blue bottoms that fit.

I hate the new scrub tops with too many pockets. I like the traditional one pocket top....and strings at the back are a big No.

I also like to just wear scrub bottoms and throw on a solid colored polo over the top! Management doesn't really mind and it looks nice for work and then whatever after!
