Fabric Quality & Durability
You can’t choose the best rated cloth to stitch your scrubs , because when it comes to scrubs, blended fabrics work best.
- Blend composition: Go for fabric blends like polyester–spandex, rayon–cotton, or moisture-wicking synthetics. These combine durability, stretch, breathability, and easier care compared to pure cotton
- Construction excellence: Look for reinforced seams, double-needle hems, bartacks at high-stress points like pockets and knees,these greatly increase lifespan
- Colorfastness & stain resistance: Scrubs frequently encounter chemicals and washes. Choose fabrics treated to resist fading, bleaching, or staining

Comfort & Fit
Comfort comes along with perfect fit and fabric type. Perfect fit for scrubs isn't something that's exactly in your body measurements, it shouldn't be too loose or too tight
- Perfect fit: Scrubs shouldn’t be too tight, restricting movement, nor too loose, getting in the way. Many brands feature "junior," "unisex," "men’s/women’s," or "petite/tall" fits to accommodate different body types
- Stretchy and breathable: Synthetics blended with spandex or elastane offer flexibility, moisture-wicking ability, and keep you cool during long, physically demanding shifts
- Smart necklines & cuts: V‑necks are common and functional but avoid overly low ones. Mock‑wrap or scoop‑neck tops may flatter while maintaining professionalism
Functionality & Features
Since it's a work outfit it should be a bit functional. It should have provisions to carry small handy items like a pen , notepad etc.
- Pockets: Essential for carrying pens, phones, IDs, tools. Brands offer varying pocket counts tops may have 2–6, pants sometimes 5–11 pockets
- Ergonomic design: Features like side vents, pleats, or flexible waistbands aid movement make tasks like bending or stretching seamless and safe
- Specialized cuts: Cargo-style pants can offer additional storage. Pregnant doctors may prefer expandable waistbands or side-zip designs
