I am a new-to-be D1 and I have to go get custom fitted for my scrubs in a few weeks. I'm just wondering where I should layout my pockets? Could seem trivial, I just assume there are more trafficked areas??

You HAVE to get custom fitted for scrubs?

 

[MatthewLeeDDS]

Are you saying you get a choice as to where your pockets will be located on your scrubs?

 

[HupHolland]

Custom fitted?? What happend to S, M or L? hahahahaa..

Anyways. Your scrubs should only have 2 pockets: one on you left chest and one on your right cheek.

Hup

PS- tell me you're joking about custom fitted

Well the place does custom fitting. Yes I can pick where pockets will be, where should I place them?

Crotch area.... that way when its cold outside (temple = very cold), you keep your hands warm in your new pockets and prevent your ****s from freezing off

I could use some honest advice here

👍
haha good one.



chest and some side pockets on the pants seem logical

don't really need pockets anyways so don't worry too much about it

This sounds like a freshman hazing scam, like selling the D-1's elevator tickets or sending the new kid to look for a left handed handpiece.

My OR scrubs have one chest/one back pocket which is okay (except I have this nagging fear of getting breast cancer from my cell phone sitting in the chest pocket all day...). However, I really like the pants I picked up that has slit pockets at the hip plus 2-3 pockets on the sides of the thighs.

Tailored...how much extra are you getting charged for that? And are you adding enough room for the stress weight you'll gain during school?

I dont have any financial connection to them, so I feel like I can say this. Smartscrubs house brand S.C.R.U.B.S. hold up better, fit more comfortably, and develop a nicer hand than any other brand I've tried since Cotton Scrubs & Co got bought out (and ruined). I have some almost a decade old that look like they were bought yesterday. You might want to take a look at them before forking over for customs.

Oh and one more thing...dont wear your new fancy scrubs to gross anatomy. Get cheap $10/pair scrubs for that. Trust me....you'll WANT to throw those out! 😉

+10 on S.C.R.U.B.S. brand. All my scrub pants are from them, and most of my scrub shirts too (I've got a few other print scrubs tops from other companies since Smart Scrubs these days doesn't have as many "male biased" prints as they used to 🙁 Pants wise though, the only thing that I don't like about them, is that a few years ago, the rope/twine/cord that they changed to in the drawstring waist isn't as durable as it used to be, and after a year or two, it tends to fray a bit and you then get to replace the drawstring with a more durable based nylon cord, since the fabric of the pants is fine.

I have two pockets on the front, like bellybutton level....and I love them so much that I miss them when I wear my regular clothes. Perfect height for phone, keys, pencils, typodont teeth, what have you...

Make sure you get a crotch zipper. The bigger the better.
