Colour & Sizing

Size Guides

Important Information
Our sizing generally follows standard sizing available, so if you are a medium in most garments, you should be a medium in our collection too. It is advisable to check your size against our numeric comparison just to be sure. If you are measuring, please understand that each person has a unique shape. You will need to use your discretion to decide exactly where you fit according to our charts.

Important Notes - Please Read This:

• All measurements are in cm.
• “Length” in our chart refers to the total length of the garment.
• If you are tall or prefer a looser fit, you may want to order one size up or request to add a couple extra centimetres to the length of the garment.

Measuring Tips:

• Measuring is often more accurate when done by someone else.
• Bust / Chest: Measure at the fullest part of your bust / chest by placing the tape measure under your arms & across your shoulder blades with your arms to your sides. Ladies: measure your full bust, not just your bra strap size. Your bust measurement is the fullest part of your bust.
• Waist: Measure around your natural waist.  Find it by bending sideways. Note the position and measure standing up straight and relaxed.
• Hip: Measure around the fullest part of your bottom, about 20cm below your natural waist, at the top of your legs.

* Our charts serve as a guide only. If you have any questions about our sizing, or if you are an irregular shape / size please contact us via email (shop@‌scrubssurgicalwear.‌co.‌za) and we will gladly assist you to find your perfect fit, or use our contact us to place a Custom Order if you prefer not to order online.

Colour Guide:

The colour chart below is for Poplin fabric. Poplin is the fabric we use for all our standard orders. It is a 65/35 poly/cotton.  It is a lightweight, breathable and high quality fabric.  It is extremely comfortable and washes and tumble-dries with no shrinkage or fading. Other fabric and colours are available when placing custom orders.

Embroidery:

We offer embroidery of names and logos. Names are usually done with a letter x-height of 10mm in a Block font similar to Arial. x-height is calculated in mm vertically from the bottom to the top of a lower case letter. The length of the name will vary depending on the amount and type of letters. In order to have clearly legible text we can not have an x-height of less than 10 mm. Our embroidery is an outsourced process and does increase the delivery times.
