What is the difference in scrubs anyway? There are actually quite a few different styles on the market but we will address the main points between reversible and non reversible (We do carry both)
 
  • Reversible vs Non Reversible:  The main difference in Reversible and Non Reversible is the stitching.  Reversible Scrubs are what we call double stitched.  
  • The Double Stitched seam is a little more costly to manufacturer but the it is actually a better and stronger stitch.  In most cases, the material would rip before the seam.  The material is actually overlapped and then has two stich lines down the overlap.
  • The Non-Reversible seam is what we called single stitched.  It cost less to make but it is not as durable as the double stitch.  Many scrubs are made with single stitching and they usually wear fine, but bending over with pants to tight will reveal your whity tighties!

Non-Reversible Seam
(i.e. Medline 9350 or ScrubZone 76000)

 
  • Another point of difference in quality would be the drawstring.  Some companies skimp on the drawstring and provide a Round Rope type drawstring.  This will usually result in your waist band rolling up and it just is not comfortable.  Flat drawstrings are much more durable and will not roll up on you.


 
  • A frequent question that we also receive the difference between Kimono sleeves and sewn on sleeves.  This is really not a quality issue, but simply a design preference.  The Kimono sleeves can sometimes be more revealing that some people like.  The sewn on sleeves are longer and therefore more modest. However, there are some scrub tops that have long Kimono sleeves and are equivelent to the Inset sleeve from a modesty standpoint (i.e. Landau 7502 top)
