Hi,
I am starting my first semester of nursing school in February. I wonder if anyone knows a good website for scrubs (cheap and xs sizes)? Thanks!

I think Life Uniform carries XS scrubs. I'm not sure how cheap they'd be.

I've been buying scrubs from Tafford Manufacturing for years and years. They are cheap, use good quality fabric, make scrubs in XS as well as XL, and they make a lot of scrubs in plain colors (including warm up jackets) as well as prints. They may feature their prints, but look further into their website for the plain, single colored scrubs.

:) Thank you all, very helpful websites!

Landau has nice pants that come in xs, and have option of xs-tall if you need the extra length. Not particularly cheap, but wash/wear well and last a long time...fade resistant too. The elastic waist ones come a little higher on the waist...nice because they don't pull on your hips when you sit or bend. And if you fold the elastic part down once, they make a particularly flattering shape...I started doing it because I am kindof short from crotch to waist, and started a trend at my hospital.

I am short and skinny and have found that Dickies XS fits perfectly. They are nicely made and run about $22 for a top and $15 for a bottom. They have cargo, boot-cut, and flare leg pants and come in short sizes too. All of my scrubs are Dickies because I know what size to order. If you type in Dickies scrubs in google you will find a number of sites to order from.

EBay! Seriously! I have found some nice-fitting scrubs for cheap ($5-9) that way. In stores, I find that Dickies fit me best, and some Cherokee styles do. It seems like even if the tag says XS, the size varies considerably, so make sure you try them on so you don't look gigantic.
I would, however, check with your school and see if you are allowed to wear scrubs or if you have a uniform. You may not need to (or get to) worry about scrubs if you're not allowed to wear them until after graduation.

There are two brand new companies that carry scrubs that run a bit small.
One is called "Koi" - has very dainty details (ruffles/eyelet in scrub material) and asian themes. The other, "Urbane Scrubs" is plainer but has a fabulous modern real wrap top that I love.

urbane scrubs carries great xs pants...they will probably be too big around the waist, but they are drawstring...but they well def be long enough! (the bootcut kind, anyway). i had the HARDEST time finding pants to fit my waist and be long enough.. xs tops still fit like pajamas for me, though.
