THE NEW FABRIC ON THE SCENE
I have heard some people say that old scrubs make the best jammies because they are soft and comfy. The problem is by the time they get to that soft comfy stage, they probably don't look very professional to where at work. Problem solved! The new scrub fabrics the mills and manufacturers are coming out with are soft and comfy from day one!
How great would it be if scrubs could look great, feel good, stretch and move we we do, and what the heck, as long as we are asking, how about help to keep us safe? What features do you look for in the fabric your scrubs are made from?
It seams like every few months someone comes out with something new in fabric. Here is a brief overview of some of the newer, more interesting fabrics and their features that make them special. I think they are worth a look.
