Yo dudes, i am a nursing student (2nd year) in Toronto,ONT (Canada). I have a few male friends who have been nursing for a while and i am loving the profession. It has many opportunites etc...!!! haha
What has been on my nerves is these feminine unisex scrubs i have to wear to clinical.
I HATE V-NECK
I am wondering if there are any websites where i can order MALE scrubs, NOT unisex scrubs.
you can buy
male scrubs online but I don't know that I've ever seen scrubs that weren't v neck scrubs.
I'm pretty sure you're either looking at women's scrubs, or unisex scrubs.
Just did a google search for
mens scrub tops
and all I can come up with are V neck scrubs.
I'd just try wearing a white T shirt under my scrub top.
Only solutions for men: T-shirt or Polo shirt, if your facility allows them. Otherwise you have the rounded female or v-neck male/unisex.
My biggest thing is the fabric. I'm really picky with the fabric; cannot work effectively if I'm itchy. I like those super broken in hospital scrubs that are almost have the microfiber or silky texture.
If you are like me, my suggestion is to invest in custom-made scrubs. You can pick the textile and have someone do it for you. I had a CNA who used to work at Vogue Magazine as a tailor, made a couple of scrub sets for me for Christmas...complete with cargo pockets ready for combat!

Check out Aviator Scrubs.com
I found them to be a little on the pricey side, BUT excellent wearabilty.:houra:
i am on here trying to find where to find stylish scrubs--i am a hospice nurse and am out in the public all day and often meet my wife for dinner after work. i want something i am comfortable wearing anywhere
i like the aviator pants,BUT
i saw a girl with what looked almost like a karate outfit,
but they were scrubs,unisex looking too, - hoping there is a male version out there and i can find them.
i recommend d-i-c-k-ies brand. (haha, the site wants to censor that name) check out their website. their stonewashed collection has nice drawstring 5 pocket cargo pants. they are high quality too.
also try and get your hands on the hospital scrubs. they are the best material around, been washed and washed to perfection. easiest way is from the OR.
I get my scrubs through Allheart.com They carry their own line as well as popular brand names. I get their line of scrubs for men. They have 7 pockets. Have elastic and drawstring waist band, and they have a zipper! They are reasonably priced at about $13.00. I wear polo type shirts...but that is acceptable at the hospitals I work at. I am not a big fan of the traditional V-Necks either.
Thanks
The site that I get my scrubs from is
ScrubsAndStyle.com. I looked and they have a
men's section. You may want to check it out. Let me know what you think.
I have a unique suggestion -- look at Psych Nursing. You usually do not have to wear scrubs - business casual is the norm; although you can wear scrubs if you choose.
Business casual is allowed because in most places it is considered more therapeutic than scrubs.
Just a thought --- enjoy your "Uni-Sex" scrubs
Mens Unbifurcated Garments
Are you a Brave Heart
What are Brave Hearts?
If if is good enough for Chesty Puller it is good enough for me. Almost every reputable uniform retailer has a men's section. Shopping online will give you the most options. Try some of these...
AllHeart.com
UniformCity.com
JascoUniform.com
I too have a hard time finding scrubs that seem to really be for men. I ordered my last scrubs online from
Nursing Scrubs and Medical Uniforms - Cherokee Workwear, White Swan, Peaches, Barco, LA Rose - Jack L. Marcus, the service was great, and I'm actually really happy with the order. I think next time I'm going to try their shoes.
Good luck my man!
I buy from three suppliers:
Landau, ****ies, and AviatorScrubs.com.

LOL Trouser tyranny?! Nice kilts
I like Landau and D-ickies myself
Side note:
I attempted to protest my nursing school uniform which had a feminine quality but was shot down. The scrub top was bunched up in the middle of the back and sort of look like a skirt.
I ended up just wearing whatever I wanted anyway, no one ever noticed.
you can get male scrubs in solid colors or prints at
Cherokee Scrubs, Cherokee Uniforms, HQ Scrubs and Baby Phat Scrub by Global Uniforms they have a bunch of prints for males...
ps: they also have 15% off right now :banana:
