Men working in healthcare need scrubs that can handle long shifts, constant movement and clinical demands — without sacrificing comfort or professional style. Whether you’re a nurse, doctor, radiographer, physio, vet or paramedic, choosing the right men’s scrubs makes a big difference to how you feel on shift.

At Infectious Clothing Company, we outfit thousands of Australian healthcare workers every year. This guide breaks down the best men’s scrubs in 2025, what to look for, and the top brands chosen by men nationwide.


What Makes a Great Men’s Scrub Top?

Men’s scrubs need a different fit to women’s and unisex styles. The best scrubs for men offer:

  • Room through the shoulders and chest for lifting and movement
  • Flexible fabrics that stretch without losing shape
  • Moisture-wicking performance to stay cool
  • Reinforced stitching for durability
  • Functional pockets for pens, phones, ID and tools

Many men prefer athletic-style scrubs with a broader upper fit and tapered torso, while others choose relaxed V-neck classics for simplicity. You can explore both styles in our Men’s Scrub Tops collection.
