Undershirts

[studentnursemon86]

I work in the ER and with the ambulance bay it gets chilly. I usually wear a long sleeve shirt under my scrub top. I had gotten several at a uniform store that were supposed to be stretchy. They are, but after a few months they develop holes along the seams.

Does anyone have a good recommendation for undershirts that are more durable?

Get a few of all cotton long sleeve shirts. Quality breathable cotton selections of pima and spun cotton is great. You can stretch it without getting holes. There are hundreds of choices online. Crazy Shirts have beautiful quality long sleeves.

Anything with polyester isn't going to breathe

You get what you pay for :)

I wear athletic shirts - the form fitted ones made for runners who run in the winter time. They have fuzzies on the inside of the shirts, so they are very well insulated. I still freeze to death, though.

I think target has champion shirts that are kind of like underarmor. I don't know , But it should be less underarmor.

I was going to suggest the C9 shirts from Champion (available at Target). Also the Peaches Orange line of undershirts are about $15 each

I think the c9 shirts from target are on sale this week for $10 if you're looking for that sort of shirt
