Nurse Jess Reichert says: Figs have ALL the pockets in all the right places. The material is SO comfortable–I will literally never buy a different brand of scrubs. I’ve been at a hospital that launders its own scrubs so I haven’t been able to wear my figs. I loaned them to my sister during the pandemic (she’s a teacher) and she got told she couldn’t wear them, but she kept them! She literally wore them as lounge clothes or pajamas because they are SO comfortable.

Best jogger scrub pants

Joggers have become one of the most beloved bottoms for men and women. They provide a comfortable fit that’s looser in just the right places. So, it’s no surprise nurses are opting for the jogger fit for scrubs, and we’ve tracked down some of the best ones to try in our 7 Best Jogger Scrub Pants post.

Alternative Option: Thrifting!

If you’re feeling adventurous, you can try your luck at your local thrift store. Some thrift stores even have an allocated section for nurse scrubs. So, it’s not too uncommon to find great quality scrubs that were only lightly worn–and even sometimes brand new!  

Final Thoughts

Ultimately, the nursing scrubs you wear comes down to individual preference. Every brand offers different pros and cons, so feel free to experiment with scrubs from different brands. You’ll be sure to find the perfect nursing scrubs in no time.
