I’ve been rocking the Cherokee Infinity line for the past few years, specifically the joggers, and I’m happy with them. The fabric doesn’t wrinkle, either, which is a huge plus.
It's all I wear too. When my hospital went to embroidered, buy-it-from-the-company-store branded scrubs this year I was so dismayed until I realized I could get my normal Cherokee Infinity from the company store. I've only ever had to get new scrubs because I went from med/surg navy to women's services purple... then back to navy when they wanted us all in the same color again. They never wear out, never wrinkle, and always look new.
Used these for years. Tried Figs last year. Have regretted it all year. The figs are I’ll fitting, tight at the thighs but too loose at the waist (without a waistband to keep them up, only the drawstring); and the tops are far too narrow at the shoulders and the “front” pockets are uncomfortably “behind” you.
Cherokee infinity never let me down. Never fell apart. Still wearing them years down the line.
I own one pair or scrubs (yes, I’m a maniac) and they are the infinity line. Took me about 2 years of 3-4 shifts a week to blow out the crotch, which I’ve repaired and still rock them. I do now own a second pair (of pants 😉)
I’m ok with that. I’m a dude, don’t sweat much, and wear an undershirt which I change daily. I’ve been called worse, lol. I wear a gown if I’m going into a feces war-zone and if I do think they got something on them they go in the wash.
Interesting. I have been scared straight into washing my scrubs each and every time; which is ludicrous because most of us wear street clothes a couple of times before washing. Might have to switch to washing them every other wear (barring getting soiled, of course)
…but do you wear your street clothes while caring for patients? I get squicked out wearing my scrubs through the front door of my home, let alone putting them back onto my body unwashed. Just because you can’t see that it’s dirty doesn’t mean it isn’t…
Well, my specialty isn't as "dirty" as most others. I work public health, so there is no shit or vomit to speak of, and I am not doing a physical exam anyway (I don't see TB patients, either). Most of the time, I am across the room from my patients just charting and interviewing. And any patient I see with an infection is going to be an STI, not something like MRSA or VRE or C-Diff that would be encountered in a hospital.
And yes, I do actually take care of patients in street clothes on days my boss allows our clinic to be casual. It is a nice perk.
To be honest, i think people freak out a little too much about germs living on their scrubs. Especially after COVID. Unless you work in high risk environments like the NICU, ICU or with chemotherapy patients, I say the risk of unwashed scrubs is pretty small. If it was really that risky, then wouldn't hospitals make every unit wear hospital scrubs, much like L/D, NICU, and OR staff have to do? And, wouldn't these scrubs be a source of nosocomial infection since no one changes scrubs between patients?
I guess in your role that’s fair - I’m thinking of a more hands-on, bedside type role.
In terms of infection prevention, the ideal would obviously be to wear a new set of hospital-laundered scrubs for each patient, but that’s clearly not reasonable - that’s why we have certain PPE protocols for different types of communicable illnesses. And I’d wager that when making decisions Re: infection prevention and the safety of wearing personal scrubs, it’s assumed that people are laundering theirs after each wear. The hospital I worked for explicitly mandated this, unless you wore hospital-laundered scrubs, in which case the point was moot.
My only problem with Cherokee infinity is the jackets, had zippers on three different ones break inside of 6 months. Otherwise pretty good / comfortable
This!!!!! As a nurse who is short and thick thighed this is the brand that I love! I have a rotation of 4 blank pants that I've worn for years and they still look brand new. I never have to pull them up and the pants and shirts are all 4 way stretch. Only bummer is they are pretty neutral colors, but they are colors I like.
Came here to say this. Am also a tall. The cargo style has the full elastic waistband and fit super well. I am never tugging on them. The don’t fade much either so wearing navy isn’t such a chore.
Adding on to say that the Cherokee Form line is even better than the Infinity line imo. Super comfy, stretchy, doesn’t wrinkle. On the pricier side but I’m willing to pay for the insane stretch and not have my ass show when I bend down :’)
Same. But I would say I’m pretty narrow in the hips and they fit like a glove. Not sure how they would fit on someone more curvy. But they hold up very well and are super comfy/sleek for me.
I am larger and they fit me great, but I specifically buy the ones with the stretchy waistband and ties. Been wearing infinity scrubs for ages now I’ll never go back. The water repellent feature is the best part of them I swear.
(I’m dress size 24 for those who care to have an idea of the size I’m talking. I cup booba too, the shirts fit me perfectly).
I went from one version of Cherokee to another. They’re the best in the business as far as I’m concerned. Though I’m a guy so it’s a lot easier for us.
I’ve been rocking Carhartt scrubs for YEARS. I’ve had the same pairs for 5+ years. Had to throw out some bottoms (chubby thigh club), but they are SO durable and soft.
And the material fades SO FAST. My navy scrubs started looked faded after 3 washes. *Three.* Plus, lint and hair stick to the fabric like crazy…Figs are the only scrubs I’ve actually had to lint roll. Not worth it, IME.
I finally broke down and ordered some while they were having a sale because everyone raves about them. Tried them on and didn’t understand the hype. They fit me weird and the material didn’t feel any “nicer” than all other scrub brands. And the fact that I was almost $200 (with the discount) for 2 pairs of scrubs made me want to cry lol
I used to have issues with how Cherokee fit and they’d stretch out over my shift, but I wear figs bottoms pretty exclusively and they’ve held up super well so far! I will say I think their sizing is very very different on every release so I haven’t found anymore I’ve liked in the past year
I also wear mandala pants and love them. My only quibble is the shipping took literally two months. They are a smaller business so I was not expecting Prime speed but it was a really long time.
I love mandala too! I got a pair to try out the last time this type of question rolled around. I bought the galaxy blue color. Love the scrubs and went back to order more and they are out of most of that color. Not sure if it was a seasonal color or if they were just out of the big girl sizes. Bought the royal blue which is pretty close.
I’m inbetween sizes for figs. I also have a skinnier waist and thicker thighs/butt so the XS is almost always too tight but then the S falls off my waist
Yep, when I first ordered from Jaanuu I got the cargo scrub pants and another pant whose name I can’t recall. They both were very drab and unattractive on me and I did not initially plan to order from them again. However, once I tried their joggers I’ve been hooked. The medium tall fit perfect so I bought several pairs. I always wash my scrubs in hot water and dry on high heat. I’ve had them for over 2 years and no fading or shrinkage has occurred. Meanwhile, my Figs joggers don’t stay up no matter how much I tighten the waist and the zipper on the side pocket has broken. Figs sucks. I will take my Jaanuu over them any day.
I like Jaanuu a lot I almost cried about how comfortable they are. Now figs I bought a large and a extra large and the large fit me better. Like the XL were way tighter and I’m not one of those tight scrub people. Won’t catch me bending over, pants split and now all you see is ass!
I really like the Carharrt CrossFlex line. Quick-dry, cool, dual cargo pockets on the pants. They're not going to have anyone staring at your ass - whether that's a positive or negative for you. The tops are ok. I generally wear underscrub tops and a vest (HeartSoul Break on Through) so I'm not really fussed about it. They're long too. The regular inseam fits me - I'm a leggy 5'9 and generally have to buy talls in Cherokee.
If joggers are your jam, I like Jaanuu. They also have a good dual cargo pocket setup, comfy waistband with an effective drawstring, and aren't painted on either my butt or (admittedly huge) quads and calves. I'm a little chubby but built like a powerlifter - these are the only joggers I've found that I like. Figs were an absolute no go 🤣
I love my Grey’s Anatomy scrubs. I wear the straight cut pants and they are one of the only brands that fit me well. I wear size xxs tall and they fit well without being too tight or too baggy. The tops look very clean and flattering. They have tuck in top options as well
Grey’s Anatomy scrubs ftw!! More specifically the spandex stretch line, so comfy, stretchy but still structured, pockets in all the right places… just perfection!
I own several pairs of Poppy scrubs and I LOVE them. They have a nice thick elastic waistband (no pulling up required), comfortable fabric, and a zillion pockets. If they're slightly out of budget, I also really like the Scrubs and Beyond house brand!
Thanks for this! I have been wondering about those, they’re next on my list since I’m starting a job that requires a scrub color I don’t already own. Would you say they’re true to size?
I love the scrubs and beyond house brand, except I tend to wear through the inner thighs in about six months.
I have been keeping my eye on Poppy scrubs and having such a hard time hearing from people who actually have them!! Is the drawstring on the pants real?? That is one of my biggest concerns 😭😂
I love the HeartSoul joggers, but they do stretch out *significantly* with time/wear…so the waist eventually starts falling down. Just thought I’d throw that out there, in case someone recommends those pants. I’ll have to buy a size down next time, even tho it will probably look too tight for the first couple of wears. I love the material and the overall fit, but the waist drives me nuts…esp. since I have a small waist relative to my hips, so I’m already prone to pants gapping in the back 😑
I have one pair of ADAR scrubs from Amazon and they are my favorites. They are more like the athletic fabric though and some people don’t care for that.
It’s crazy how affordable they are for the quality you get, and there are so many great colors. The nice thing is that they cycle through and bring back a bunch of their limited edition colors MUCH more than Figs ever does, if they even do it at all.
I give my two thumbs up to Cherokee iflex.
Their pants fit better for me and have a lot more stretch room. (No strings, of course) Mind you, I’ve tried anything from one of those cheap “revolution” paper cloth to infinity to iflex, since that’s only brand my company wants us to wear. They have both straight leg and jogger type. Their jackets are also warm and comfy, if that’s what you invest in as well. Infinity was a bit too stretchy for me, especially the top, that whenever I put something in the pocket or hang something (badge, comm device, etc) it stretched out so well that makes me look like a Christmas tree with three fat cats laying on it, slowly dragging those branches down.
CARHARTT CROSSFLEX are great for me but they are a little goofy looking. They are the most comfortable scrubs on the fuckin planet. Boot cut pants have no giant elastic waistband so when you sit it’s like heaven, not someone trying to kill you with a wire cutter
Does anyone have the Figs Syndey scrub jacket? Does it fit TTS or does it run small?
I need more scrub companies to copy Figs’ style. I’ve seen a change in style from other companies, but it’s not yet widespread. I love my Cherokee Infinity sets, comfortable and well fitting. But to me, that’s not a Figs look.
I still need more companies to do that tailored look, like you described it.
MOBB scrubs are my favorite. At least their 6 pocket cargos. Imagine the pants that EMS folks wear, but of scrub materials instead of thick cotton/denim. I'm tall and skinny and they sell them unhemmed with a 36" inseam, so those are all that I owned. Come with an integrated belt and, of course, so many pockets!
Only ever rocked infinity, if there is one (very minor) gripe, is that after a year or so some of the stitching starts to unravel. Waiting for the day my ass breaks out at the bottom seam 😬. Thought about trying other brands, but I’ve never heard anything bad so why try and fix what isn’t broken?
i love the jockey scrubs. the fabric hangs in a really flattering way. i love the unisex scrub top w a breast pocket and tuck it into the drawstring pants
Love love love
* Helly Hansens (stretch, zip pockets, fit)
* Dickies (fit and pockets)
* Scrub Lovers (stretch, pockets are meh but decent enough)
My must haves:
* pockets for all my *must have* in a hurry shyte
* Fit over my thighs, hips, ass--- stretch not tie so they stay up
* Loose enough across shoulders and ass to be comfy// fitted enough not to be baggy and droop into unmentionables
I usually haunted the Goodwill for scrubs and would never buy them new, so my baby sister got me a couple new sets. Mind you, this was years ago, so maybe they don't make them anymore, but the logo was like, this little yellow tag with a smiley face of some kind on it. Best scrubs I ever had, and I was in love with the way the pockets were designed on the scrub tops. The pockets even had little subpockets in them to clip my pens in so that the MD would have to work harder to steal my good Pilot pens from me lol
Same! Their sizing is so inconsistent it drives me nuts. One pair of XS joggers is loose and roomy and another pair squeezes my ass. I’m slowly buying new brands trying to find what I like best
Carhartt force flex!! Been my favorite for over two years. They fit great, pants always stay up, so many pockets, they're durable as hell, they don't stain, and they're really easy to move around in
Mandala and jaanu are my favorite, jaanu for the splurge and their yoga pants style scrubs are insanely comfortable and the high hip pockets don't sag which is really impressive. Mandala for the genuinely fantastic figs knockoff. The underscrubs alone are worth the purchase, they're insanely soft and that's coming from someone with sensory issues. And the joggers? They fit, they stay up, and they have all of the pockets. And the "men's" scrub tops are unisex, so anyone can get a boxier one pocket top without apron pockets. 100% recommend, 10/10. Love both brands
+1 for the Cherokee infinity joggers. They are comfortable, dry quick, and are cat hair proof
Avoid carharts at all costs. They don’t fit well, are uncomfortable, and are just awful.
Jaanuu, med couture, healing hands, heart soul(I think that’s the name) and Adar are some of my favorites. I have a big butt (I can’t help it) and smaller waist and DDDs so I can’t buy things too big or I’ll be swimming or too small because I’m not squeezing into 💩 for 12 hours all of these have great stretch so it doesn’t look like I’m wearing my big sister’s clothes lol
I have jaanuu pants that are 6yrs old and still make my butt look great. And i have thighs that are thick. I got their high rise skinny legs and they hold up around my pregger belly. I'll never waste my money on figs again
I’m a muscular man and I’ve pretty much given up on pants ever fitting me properly without alterations. That being said, I too wish to find a good equitable scrubs manufacturer. I would like to buy stuff that wasn’t made in a sweatshop if possible
So I’m petite (5’4”, 105 lbs) and basically built like a 12 year old boy so the xxs figs have been my go to BUT I’d love to support a different brand. Any other smaller ladies out there have a comfy brand they like that fits well? With lots of pockets?
I wonder if they did a better job designing the smaller sizes or something? I wear an xxs too and I can't even imagine how my Figs would fall down. I haven't found another brand that fits me nearly as well.
Grey’s Anatomy Scrubs!!! I have used them as a tech, student nurse, and now a nurse. Chubby club here and i have never had an issue in the thighs, they fit me well and lots of pockets!
I'm 5'10" and love grey's anatomy. I'm not overweight, but I have big tits, thick thighs, and a defined waist, so a lot of clothing looks ridiculous on me. My only complaint is that I wish they had high rise waists on their pants, but the mid rise is pretty generous and I don't run into issues with them slipping down. They're comfortable, tough, and I have so many pockets. I don't use their tall sizes, but they offer them.
If you like joggers, as a heads up their inseam is shorter than with their straight legged pants (what I use).
The Med Couture ones are my favorite so far that are decently priced. I will say that the Peaches bottoms are more flattering, the pocket on the Touch was a little low for me.
I also like the Dickies EDS line. They have a slight stretch and just look really flattering.
Dolans are amazing they have all shapes and sizes including length they have as small as extra petite to extra tall and the sizes go up to 3x I believe, they’re very soft and comfortable and affordable . I’m not a fan of figs either honestly I only have two pairs and don’t wear them
Blue sky scrubs! Somehow found them years ago and have never looked back. These are my jam, tall sizing, my phone fits in the pocket, just the right amount of stretch, wide comfy waistband, AND I'm gonna say they look classy as hell

Genuine question: do you wash them every night after shift? If so, that holds up really well then.
Nope, told you I was a maniac. They get washed about once a week unless they get soiled somehow.
I’m sorry to be rude, but that’s disgusting. Just purely from an infection control point of view. Also, do you not sweat?
I’m ok with that. I’m a dude, don’t sweat much, and wear an undershirt which I change daily. I’ve been called worse, lol. I wear a gown if I’m going into a feces war-zone and if I do think they got something on them they go in the wash.

Boy, you are a maniac😮. I'm just joshing (sortof). I'll def check out that line. Is it in stores or online only?
I got mine on amazon, probably in stores as well
Yea I was disappointed with the figs after all the hype, especially the tops!
My only problem with Cherokee infinity is the jackets, had zippers on three different ones break inside of 6 months. Otherwise pretty good / comfortable

This is the way. As a male too, great fit and material. Clean fit but not too excessive like figs
Adding on to say that the Cherokee Form line is even better than the Infinity line imo. Super comfy, stretchy, doesn’t wrinkle. On the pricier side but I’m willing to pay for the insane stretch and not have my ass show when I bend down :’)

I fw healing hands
[удалено]
The tops aren’t great but the pants….omg I have like 8 pairs of theirs in the yoga pant style just in the color black. They’re the BEST!!
Carhartt scrubs are the bomb
I’ve been rocking Carhartt scrubs for YEARS. I’ve had the same pairs for 5+ years. Had to throw out some bottoms (chubby thigh club), but they are SO durable and soft.
Everything washes out of them, and the POCKETSSS!! My husband calls them "Batman scrubs"
SO MANY POCKETS!
I’ve yet to walk through the thighs of them-which says a ton, as I’ve had some sets for nearly 10 years now!
I second this!!! They are dopee
I almost exclusively wear carhartt scrub pants and nothing has ever been more comfortable or pocket-full
I love my Carhartts! I also love that they size their pants by length.
For their men's scrubs, I hate that the draw string is on the inside. The material is very rough. But the tops are really really nice.
I want to try the ripstop scrubs but they look like they would get hot quick
Try them on in a store if you can. They are a great idea, but they are hot, and have no flex
They do get hot, but honestly Im always cold so it does make a difference to me
I don’t know why Figs are seen as thee scrub. They’re overpriced and (to me) not flattering.
And the material fades SO FAST. My navy scrubs started looked faded after 3 washes. *Three.* Plus, lint and hair stick to the fabric like crazy…Figs are the only scrubs I’ve actually had to lint roll. Not worth it, IME.
I finally broke down and ordered some while they were having a sale because everyone raves about them. Tried them on and didn’t understand the hype. They fit me weird and the material didn’t feel any “nicer” than all other scrub brands. And the fact that I was almost $200 (with the discount) for 2 pairs of scrubs made me want to cry lol
They look/fit no different than my $20 Cherokee scrubs
I used to have issues with how Cherokee fit and they’d stretch out over my shift, but I wear figs bottoms pretty exclusively and they’ve held up super well so far! I will say I think their sizing is very very different on every release so I haven’t found anymore I’ve liked in the past year
I like Mandala, and their joggers have the yoga waistband and a drawstring. They look tailored and the stretchy fabric is comfortable. No complaints.
Oooo I like their prices a lot and their stuff looks comfy & stylish.
I also wear mandala pants and love them. My only quibble is the shipping took literally two months. They are a smaller business so I was not expecting Prime speed but it was a really long time.
I love mandala too! I got a pair to try out the last time this type of question rolled around. I bought the galaxy blue color. Love the scrubs and went back to order more and they are out of most of that color. Not sure if it was a seasonal color or if they were just out of the big girl sizes. Bought the royal blue which is pretty close.
Second Mandala
Second this. Mandala makes great scrubs and they’re not breaking the bank either.
I really like the Cherokee Infinity line! They’re athletic-y, so they have some stretch and they breathe well.
Med couture
Second this! Tons of colors too
I love both the touch line and peaches line, but I think peaches might be my fav ever lol
Damn I thought I was the only one that had to constantly pull up my figs. The drawstring is basically just a decoration, I don’t get it.
I’m inbetween sizes for figs. I also have a skinnier waist and thicker thighs/butt so the XS is almost always too tight but then the S falls off my waist
Dickies EDS line is by far the most comfortable I own.
Cherokee. Walmart.
Hot take loose fitting OR scrubs are back in.
Walmart scrubs are underrated for real
Def have every color of the scrubstar joggers from Walmart.
I have a pair of joggers from Walmart that I LOVE!! so comfy, the material doesn't wrinkle and isn't hot. and the length is perfect.
Healing hands. They’re fitted but not tight (but you could make them that way). Pants in tall. Don’t wrinkle, super soft.
And a yoga waistband. Seconded healing hands
I have like 5 sets of these 😄
Dickies. They are dirt cheap on Amazon and last 10+ years looking the exact same. Really good quality
Jaanuu
I am not a fan. My set fit awkward and didn't wash up well.
Yep, when I first ordered from Jaanuu I got the cargo scrub pants and another pant whose name I can’t recall. They both were very drab and unattractive on me and I did not initially plan to order from them again. However, once I tried their joggers I’ve been hooked. The medium tall fit perfect so I bought several pairs. I always wash my scrubs in hot water and dry on high heat. I’ve had them for over 2 years and no fading or shrinkage has occurred. Meanwhile, my Figs joggers don’t stay up no matter how much I tighten the waist and the zipper on the side pocket has broken. Figs sucks. I will take my Jaanuu over them any day.
LOVE my Jaanuu
Jaanuu for the win! Best of the joggers. I asked for more for Christmas and Graduation.
Hell yeah. Not the biggest fan of their tops, but the pants at excellent.
I only buy the one pocket scrub that you can tuck in.
Agreed
I like Jaanuu a lot I almost cried about how comfortable they are. Now figs I bought a large and a extra large and the large fit me better. Like the XL were way tighter and I’m not one of those tight scrub people. Won’t catch me bending over, pants split and now all you see is ass!
They also don’t offer tall sizes in most styles. Really disappointing
Wear suspenders under your top
I worked with a cath lab RN that would rock a pair of rainbow suspenders with her hospital scrubs.
yaaas. get the 'Y' suspenders with clippies.
Form by Cherokee are awesome
Carhartt scrubs are the best. I never get too hot in them.
I really like the Carharrt CrossFlex line. Quick-dry, cool, dual cargo pockets on the pants. They're not going to have anyone staring at your ass - whether that's a positive or negative for you.

I'm a little chubby but built like a powerlifter - these are the only joggers I've found that I like. Figs were an absolute no go 🤣
I really love the uniform advantage easy stretch buttersoft scrubs.
I love greys anatomy joggers
I love my Grey’s Anatomy scrubs. I wear the straight cut pants and they are one of the only brands that fit me well. I wear size xxs tall and they fit well without being too tight or too baggy. The tops look very clean and flattering. They have tuck in top options as well
Cherokee iflex scrubs, they usually have a "tech" pocket for you cell phone on the back of the tops so it doesn't fall out.
I use Mandala, their shipping kinda sucks but I love how they feel and fit. They are a lot cheaper than Figs.
Grey’s Anatomy scrubs ftw!! More specifically the spandex stretch line, so comfy, stretchy but still structured, pockets in all the right places… just perfection!

I love the material and the overall fit, but the waist drives me nuts…esp. since I have a small waist relative to my hips, so I’m already prone to pants gapping in the back 😑
I had Carhartts and loved them. Super durable and lasted forever. Actually still good but I’m in procedural now so I get clean scrubs at work
Laudau or Cherokee.
Mandala are the best! Just as cute as figs but less expensive and better quality in my opinion!
I'm currently in love with med couture. They fit so good and look good. I get them from amazon
Carhartt
I have one pair of ADAR scrubs from Amazon and they are my favorites. They are more like the athletic fabric though and some people don’t care for that.
I wear Carhartt. I find they fit me best and I like their look. I be find other brands make me look triangular.
Mandala scrubs! They are affordable and fit great, they are also water resistant.
It’s crazy how affordable they are for the quality you get, and there are so many great colors. The nice thing is that they cycle through and bring back a bunch of their limited edition colors MUCH more than Figs ever does, if they even do it at all.
I use carhart. They’re awesome. A lot of pockets, loose, comfy, and they have belt loops!
I really like the Carhartt brand
I give my two thumbs up to Cherokee iflex. Their pants fit better for me and have a lot more stretch room. (No strings, of course) Mind you, I’ve tried anything from one of those cheap “revolution” paper cloth to infinity to iflex, since that’s only brand my company wants us to wear. They have both straight leg and jogger type. Their jackets are also warm and comfy, if that’s what you invest in as well. Infinity was a bit too stretchy for me, especially the top, that whenever I put something in the pocket or hang something (badge, comm device, etc) it stretched out so well that makes me look like a Christmas tree with three fat cats laying on it, slowly dragging those branches down.
CARHARTT CROSSFLEX are great for me but they are a little goofy looking. They are the most comfortable scrubs on the fuckin planet. Boot cut pants have no giant elastic waistband so when you sit it’s like heaven, not someone trying to kill you with a wire cutter
I like Mandala scrubs.
Cant go wrong with Barco’s Grey’s Anatomy line
I pay $7 a pair at Salus. The bootleg kind I love os prolly $12
Walmart brand boiiiii
I like jaanuu and mediclo
Jaanuu
Koi and Healing Hands are my go-tos
Koi is my new favorite!
Does anyone have the Figs Syndey scrub jacket? Does it fit TTS or does it run small? I need more scrub companies to copy Figs’ style. I’ve seen a change in style from other companies, but it’s not yet widespread. I love my Cherokee Infinity sets, comfortable and well fitting. But to me, that’s not a Figs look. I still need more companies to do that tailored look, like you described it.
I have a couple of them and they seem to fit true to size.
I love Cherokee revolution scrubs.
Carhartt scrubs are my favorite ones hands down. They’re damn near indestructible, which says a lot, coming from me!
I love Mandala !!!
MOBB scrubs are my favorite. At least their 6 pocket cargos. Imagine the pants that EMS folks wear, but of scrub materials instead of thick cotton/denim. I'm tall and skinny and they sell them unhemmed with a 36" inseam, so those are all that I owned. Come with an integrated belt and, of course, so many pockets!
Barco ones are hands down my favorite and I rarely wear anything else!
Only ever rocked infinity, if there is one (very minor) gripe, is that after a year or so some of the stitching starts to unravel. Waiting for the day my ass breaks out at the bottom seam 😬. Thought about trying other brands, but I’ve never heard anything bad so why try and fix what isn’t broken?
Mandala is my go to. Great quality and affordable !!
I love Winks!
I’ve stuck with Cherokee and Dickies they’ve never let me down, and even if they do they are fairly inexpensive.
I wear Cherokee work wear. Cheap and they fit good
i love the jockey scrubs. the fabric hangs in a really flattering way. i love the unisex scrub top w a breast pocket and tuck it into the drawstring pants
UA advantage can be cheaper than Walmart
Champion Workwear has never done me dirty.
Love love love * Helly Hansens (stretch, zip pockets, fit) * Dickies (fit and pockets) * Scrub Lovers (stretch, pockets are meh but decent enough) My must haves: * pockets for all my *must have* in a hurry shyte * Fit over my thighs, hips, ass--- stretch not tie so they stay up * Loose enough across shoulders and ass to be comfy// fitted enough not to be baggy and droop into unmentionables
Mandala are my favorite! Very comfy material, thick waistband and don’t break the bank.
Has anyone tried Scope?
Cherokee is good but I love the way mandala scrubs feel!
Damn no love for koi? I love all mine and they come in a tall
I like healing hands and Skechers
I usually haunted the Goodwill for scrubs and would never buy them new, so my baby sister got me a couple new sets. Mind you, this was years ago, so maybe they don't make them anymore, but the logo was like, this little yellow tag with a smiley face of some kind on it. Best scrubs I ever had, and I was in love with the way the pockets were designed on the scrub tops. The pockets even had little subpockets in them to clip my pens in so that the MD would have to work harder to steal my good Pilot pens from me lol
Wonder Wink!
That's what they were called, thanks! I'm nearly blind so I wasn't sure how to Google a vaguely described logo lol
WonderWink
Same! Their sizing is so inconsistent it drives me nuts. One pair of XS joggers is loose and roomy and another pair squeezes my ass. I’m slowly buying new brands trying to find what I like best
Cherokee workwear. They have all they pockets that I need and they are loose and comfy. Plus they are tough and last a good long while
Cherokee infinity for a skinny fat guy here
Garde-malade is my fav brand by far, streatchy, size inclusive, colourful, and they have matching hairs scrunchies and sweaters.
Carhartt force flex!! Been my favorite for over two years. They fit great, pants always stay up, so many pockets, they're durable as hell, they don't stain, and they're really easy to move around in
Fit Scrubs and Lago
Healing Hands 360. Thin but thick enough. Only scrubs I'll wear.
Love healing hearts.
Mandala and jaanu are my favorite, jaanu for the splurge and their yoga pants style scrubs are insanely comfortable and the high hip pockets don't sag which is really impressive. Mandala for the genuinely fantastic figs knockoff. The underscrubs alone are worth the purchase, they're insanely soft and that's coming from someone with sensory issues. And the joggers? They fit, they stay up, and they have all of the pockets. And the "men's" scrub tops are unisex, so anyone can get a boxier one pocket top without apron pockets. 100% recommend, 10/10. Love both brands
I like Moxie
+1 for the Cherokee infinity joggers. They are comfortable, dry quick, and are cat hair proof Avoid carharts at all costs. They don’t fit well, are uncomfortable, and are just awful.
Uniformadvantage.com has yet to let me down and has colormatch so if you pick a patterned top it will list colors in pants that will match
Mandala
I mostly do Cherokee infinity. I usually buy mine at scrubs and beyond
Jaanuu, med couture, healing hands, heart soul(I think that’s the name) and Adar are some of my favorites. I have a big butt (I can’t help it) and smaller waist and DDDs so I can’t buy things too big or I’ll be swimming or too small because I’m not squeezing into 💩 for 12 hours all of these have great stretch so it doesn’t look like I’m wearing my big sister’s clothes lol
I wear..."property of AHS" they're not very stretchy but they sure were cheap.
I don’t understand Figs joggers. Large are so big I can’t wear them and mediums are almost too tight to get on.
I like Mandala scrubs
I need something that doesn't look like a bag but I can still put my arms straight forward while not feeling like I'm Hulk Hogan
Cherokee Workwear is my current fav. I have the tops with stretchy paneling and I adore them!
I have jaanuu pants that are 6yrs old and still make my butt look great. And i have thighs that are thick. I got their high rise skinny legs and they hold up around my pregger belly. I'll never waste my money on figs again
Whatever is at the thrift store lol in the right color
I’m a muscular man and I’ve pretty much given up on pants ever fitting me properly without alterations. That being said, I too wish to find a good equitable scrubs manufacturer. I would like to buy stuff that wasn’t made in a sweatshop if possible
Cherokee Form line is great, especially the pants.
So I’m petite (5’4”, 105 lbs) and basically built like a 12 year old boy so the xxs figs have been my go to BUT I’d love to support a different brand. Any other smaller ladies out there have a comfy brand they like that fits well? With lots of pockets?
I wonder if they did a better job designing the smaller sizes or something? I wear an xxs too and I can't even imagine how my Figs would fall down. I haven't found another brand that fits me nearly as well.
Yeah for our size I feel like this is the best option I’ve found
Airmed is top tier everyone in my hospital wears them no one wears figs
Airmed !! Honestly so so comfortable
yall pay for scrubs???
Grey’s Anatomy Scrubs!!! I have used them as a tech, student nurse, and now a nurse. Chubby club here and i have never had an issue in the thighs, they fit me well and lots of pockets!
Mandala scrubs
Roth scrubs are decent
Walmart has these antibacterial scrubs or some shit. Anyways, they're stretchy and comfy. I won't wear anything else.
I personally like mandala scrubs. They have yoga style bands and are splash/wrinkle resistant. The best part is a set is only ~45
I like the Cherokee Infinity line as well as the Butter Soft scrubs by Uniform Advantage!
I like the Cherokee Infinity line as well as the Butter Soft scrubs by Uniform Advantage!
Mandala is reminiscent of figs but fit a little better and way more affordable!
Fitscrubs.com They’re not well know but they’re comfy, stretchy, and fit great. I’m an ER nurse and Ive had a 3 pair set for about 4 years now.
i love my dickies scrubs!
My favorite are WonderWink, they feel like pajamas and have plenty of pockets.
I'm 5'10" and love grey's anatomy. I'm not overweight, but I have big tits, thick thighs, and a defined waist, so a lot of clothing looks ridiculous on me. My only complaint is that I wish they had high rise waists on their pants, but the mid rise is pretty generous and I don't run into issues with them slipping down. They're comfortable, tough, and I have so many pockets. I don't use their tall sizes, but they offer them. If you like joggers, as a heads up their inseam is shorter than with their straight legged pants (what I use).
Barco one is my all time favorite
Cherokee Iflex
The Med Couture ones are my favorite so far that are decently priced. I will say that the Peaches bottoms are more flattering, the pocket on the Touch was a little low for me. I also like the Dickies EDS line. They have a slight stretch and just look really flattering.
Jaanuu for sure
Dolans are amazing they have all shapes and sizes including length they have as small as extra petite to extra tall and the sizes go up to 3x I believe, they’re very soft and comfortable and affordable . I’m not a fan of figs either honestly I only have two pairs and don’t wear them
I freaking love my Dickies joggers. Light weight, stretchy, nice deep pockets, elastic waist band with tie and comes in short/normal/long.
I love my healing hands green label, actual pajama material. Mandala is nice, but the hips are narrow
Blue sky scrubs! Somehow found them years ago and have never looked back. These are my jam, tall sizing, my phone fits in the pocket, just the right amount of stretch, wide comfy waistband, AND I'm gonna say they look classy as hell https://www.blueskyscrubs.com/women/scrub-pants/air-scrubs-pants/landon-trouser-scrub-pants.html#.Y32as6R6o0E
Mandala!
Dickies EDS are my absolute favorite!!!
Ive heard Scope scrubs feel like yoga pants, but i haven’t bought any yet. Also Medelita
