If you’ve always wished you could wear jeans to work, your wish has come halfway true. Dickies New Blue collection features light and dark wash denim scrubs pants that will go with almost any top. Tuck in your shirt or leave it untucked with this unisex straight-leg cargo pant. It has a back pocket for your wallet and a front pocket for the nursing essentials you use on the job. The dark wash is definitely the trendier color choice for the fall season.
Light weight denim pant
This is a pant you’ll want to match with a pale-colored scrubs top or polo top and black shoes for a clean-cut look. Go for a leather step-in shoe instead of an athletic sneaker or Crocs to step up your fashion game. This FARVE model from Skechers has European-style, top-stitched seams that make it look more like a suave loafer than a clunky clog.
Farve Step In
Top off this outfit with a lab coat—but not a long unisex style. Get one that’s designed for a man’s shoulders and arms. This blazer-style consultation coat from Cherokee fits the bill with a cut that’s all business. The short length will keep extra fabric from getting in your way without sacrificing storage room (it has a total of seven pockets). Wear it open rather than buttoned down for modern appeal.

Laid-Back…or Funky
For a casual look, pair a gray, khaki or olive scrubs pant with a raglan color-block top. This style from Dickies evokes the memory of a baseball team without actually sporting anything other than a brand logo. Here’s their EDS raglan shirt—and a Youtility men’s cargo pant that would be a good style match. They come in plenty of colors for you to mix it up.

Youtility Men’s Pant
The pant has a very slightly flared leg that can be cuffed for an “Old Navy” effect that’s popular among the younger set. Iron a crease into the front of the pant legs and fold up the hem just once to create the right retro look. It can give you a chance to show off a little personal style if you like to put contrasting laces in your white athletic shoes.
