I just graduated and will start work in Sept. I need uniforms (obviously). I have one set of scrubs from back when I was a hygienist that has a super soft feel to the material. (The tag has washed out).
I just hate the feel of the scrubs I seem to find in the few medical supply stores in my area. They feel very rough.
Please tell me what brands I need to look for online for that soft feeling material - and what else should I look for when buying uniforms (color doesn't matter)?
Thanks!

My favorite scrubs right now are the silkies from Crazyscrubs.com. They're pricey, and limited color choice ... but are incredible on the comfort scale. I've been wearing them about once/week since January ... and they still look brand new. :) One note: If you order from them, know that they run big. I'm a basic size 6 ... and their smalls were swimming on me and I needed to take them in all over the place. They are really responsive though if you send them an e-mail with your size, they will make suggestions.

Certain types of Barco scrubs are reallt soft, but they are a line and not ALL of them are.
