Best scrubs for veterinary professionals

Not many of us have to deal with mountains of fur in our regular workday, which is why Veterinary professionals have a unique set of requirements for their workwear! Scrubs for vets, nurses and technicians need to be extremely tough, breathable, and comfortable.

Let’s take a look at the most comfortable, functional, and vet-friendly scrubs available on the market.

Kara Edit

This is our very own range, designed right here in the UK! Having carefully considered the needs of professionals in every industry, we made the fabric in this range water and hair resistant, perfect for our vets. Customers love the stretchy, breathable fabric that stands up to accidents, spills, and fur.

The motus relaxed top and the magna joggers were firm favourites amongst our veterinary professionals.

Here are our top recommendations from Edit:

 

Motus relaxed top

This classic top flatters everyone, the raglan short sleeves provide a stylish yet functional edge to the top. There is a small side split hem to encourage freedom of movement, built for long days. The mixture of functional storage pockets with the hair resistant fabric makes this the ideal veterinary scrub top.

Easy to wash, and dries well, this fabric is durable and long-lasting. You can rely on the Motus relaxed top for ultimate comfort and breathability. Pairs well with any of our Kara Edit trousers.

 

Magna joggers

Active motion stretch joggers with a fashion flair, these are our most popular scrub trousers from the collection.  There are several pockets, including a zip pocket on the thigh to ensure your items do not fall out during the day. The elasticated waistband is comfortable to wear for long periods. For even more comfort, the cuffed ankle is soft on the skin, and stops the joggers from rising throughout your workday.

Suitable for machine washing, these joggers are simple to launder and keep their integrity. No need to worry about ironing as the material is wrinkle resistant. Benefit from our handy ID tag loop at the waist too.

 

Utilis men’s top

Utilis = helpful, and that is exactly what this top is! There is a chest patch pocket with a handy penholder, as well as hip patch pockets. For even more storage, these pockets have additional side entry pockets. The top has a classic modern fit, with a flattering V-neck and relaxed cut.

Storage is no problem with our men’s scrub top, and the fabric keeps you feeling cool and looking professional all day long. Wear with the Ordo men’s trousers for a complete look.

 

Ordo men’s trousers

These cargo style trousers have a classic fit. You can both look professional and feel comfortable in these trousers, as the motion-stretch fabric is built to move with you. You don’t need to worry about storage, enjoy a mixture of useful pocket types. Including a thigh angled patch pocket with zip, cardholder, as well as a special multi-pocket at the hip.

For ease of care, these scrubs are wrinkle resistant, wash well, and dry quickly. Ideal for busy professionals who need workwear that works for them, not against them.

Wink scrubs

In 2023, veterinary customers bought more Wink scrubs than all other professionals! Including dental, medical, and beauty. In particular, our vets loved WonderFLEX, WonderWORK, and W123. Opting for classic styles and professional colours, veterinary customers appreciate simple and effective workwear.

Here are our top recommendations from Wink:

 

WonderWORK V-neck tops

In this style, we have 3 options available. Men’s, women’s and unisex. This is ideal for large veterinary teams that want to keep a cohesive look. The fabric is durable, comfortable, and withstands washing well.

Though simple, WonderWORK is anything but basic. It has the feel of traditional scrubs but with an elevated look and beneficial features. It boasts functional pockets for storage, and a wide selection of colours and sizes to choose from.

 

W123 Women’s cargo jogger trousers

W123 has been a favourite of our vets since it launched here at Kara. The four-stretch fabric is extremely comfortable and flexible, perfect for long days of looking after pets.

These joggers have a whopping 7 pockets for storing your veterinary accessories and essentials. The waistband is soft and stretchy, working with you all day long. The cuffed ankle ensures the joggers do not move throughout the day. These super soft, breathable joggers are perfect for challenging workdays.

 

WonderFLEX verity V-neck top

Fun fact, this was the most popular veterinary scrub top sold in 2023! A firm favourite, the unique contrast trim in the WonderFLEX collection makes these scrubs stand out from the crowd. Made with function in mind, this scrub top has two extra deep front pockets. Ensuring you can carry everything you need for your workday.

This fabric has the ideal combination of elements to create a comfortable, durable, and stretchy scrub top. Veterinary professionals need a uniform that can withstands regular hot washing, and this scrub top can do just that.

 

RENEW EZ zip top

When your day is filled with fur, there is a good chance it will be leaving with you. We know that while our pets are adorable, their fur sticks to our clothes, scrubs, and just about anywhere. This uniquely designed scrub top has a zip at the shoulder, so you can remove the scrub top without it touching your face. Ideal for accidental leaks, spills, and more.

You can feel good about this scrub top, as it is made from recycled polyester that saves 5 plastic water bottles from landfill with every garment. Breathable, flexible, and stretchy, RENEW scrubs are a modern, sustainable and feel-good choice for veterinary workwear. Available in both men’s and women’s versions.
