Summer has officially left the building, and Winter is fast approaching! Depending on where in Australia you live, brings cold days and freezing nights. 

As Australia’s leading medical scrubs online retailer, we have the largest selection of scrubs, layer tops, jackets and vests to keep everyone warm. 

Some may think medical professionals working inside won’t feel the cold, but we can tell you that the aircon is still blasting inside hospitals and clinics! One minute you’re freezing, the next you’re sweating. The million-dollar question is, what to wear under or over your scrubs in the winter? Keep on reading to find the answer. 

What to Wear Under Your Scrubs

Underscrub tops are a light base layer under your scrubs that will keep you cool when it's warm and warm when it's cold. Underscrub tops are one of the most common options and is well-suited for winter. Made of a lightweight, stretchy, super-soft fabric that sits close to the skin, these long-sleeve shirts are great for keeping warm on long shifts.

Our most popular underscrub top is the 2009 WonderWink Silky Long Sleeve Tee Under Scrubs Shirt. This luxurious and comfortable top is a fashionable twist on the classic long-sleeve tee. Perfect for keeping warm in the office, layering, or even after work. Designed to be worn with the sleeves slid up the forearms. Our team love wearing these tops in the cooler months throughout the office! We do recommend you go down a size as they are quite an oversized fit. 

Jackets & Coats

When it's cold, layering is the key to keeping warm. Add warmth and style to your scrubs outfit with a stylish, functional scrub jacket or vest.  Scrub jackets and vests are designed to keep you warm while breathing and stretching with everything you do. 

One of the most popular jackets and vests are the J830M Biz Collection Mens Apex Vest and the J740M Biz Collection Mens Apex Lightweight Softshell Jacket. The Apex Vest is the perfect addition with a stand-up collar, soft chin guard, and a scalloped longer back tail for added warmth, plus, it’s lightly water-repellent and wind resistant! The Softshell Jacket features a softshell outer with fleece lining and a zip front, keeping you warm while working. Both of these products are available in Black, Navy and Grey. 

Whether it's a cold medical building you work in or cold winter weather, we hope this scrubs layer guide helps you stay warm and comfortable every shift!
