re: Are you Non-medical but wear scrubs?

Stolen valor.

Wearing scrub pants is acceptable if you're going to the gym and want a little layering while you get warm. Wearing them around town as if they're real clothes is weird IMO.

Work in medical sales, healthcare background, wear them for work. Would never wear them out casually, but I'd be lying if I said they haven't gotten me out of several speeding tickets

My wife wears them around the house because she says they’re comfortable. She had them from when she worked at a Vet clinic

I don't think doctors wear Figs. You could always tell the difference between the doctors' scrubs and those of the nurses, etc.

I wear them under my regular clothes instead of underwear, does that count?

If you don't think Modern Day nurses, medical assistants, estheticians and other frontline heroes won't take up an opposite banner to your "ThEy LoOk So CoMfOrTaBlE" plea to shame you for your stolen valor, then you're not paying attention.

FIGS

these are the most overrated scrubs to date.

while they are vv fashionable, they suck in terms of attire that is helpful to do your actual job (if you're in healthcare at the bedside) imho.

not enough pockets and designed to show off your assets more than to be an asset that enables you to keep the items you need on your person to do your job efficiently.

Gen Z nurse requirements: Figs, Stanley cup, bogg bag.

I kinda like the black set. Blue would be too medical looking.

I am medical. I will wear black scrubs to work about once a week.


There is a division amongst physicians re: scrubs belong exclusively in the OR vs it’s ok to wear scrubs outside the OR. There is a Wall of Shame for when someone is caught somewhere that scrubs don’t belong (baseball park, grocery store, etc)


I will wear mine from home to work and back. I’ll sometimes not have time to go change before doing something, but it’s really rare for me to show up at a bar/party/dinner in them, and I change out of them just about as soon as I get home most the time.
