Veterinary Scrubs Australia — Vet Nurses, Vets & Clinics
Vet scrubs for vets, vet nurses, receptionists and groomers, from Dickies, Wink and Cherokee. Sizes run XXS–5XL in most styles, held in local stock so team reorders match. Add your clinic logo and staff names with our in-house embroidery, or browse animal and paw print scrubs for client-facing roles.
Quick answer: Most vet nurses choose Wink W123 for its soft 4-way stretch and pocket storage. Vets in surgery and emergency tend to pick Cherokee Infinity (4-way stretch, antimicrobial). Clinics outfitting a whole team on a budget often go with Dickies EDS Signature. Logo embroidery takes 5 business days after artwork approval.

Vet Scrubs by Brand
Vet work means pet hair, crouching and restraining, disinfectant and frequent washing. Smooth polyester-rich fabrics shed pet hair more easily than cotton-rich ones, and stretch matters more the more hands-on the role.

Animal Print Scrubs & Vet Scrub Caps
Vet clinics are one of the few clinical settings where a fun uniform helps with the work: prints can relax nervous pets and anxious owners, and they hide pet hair better than dark solids. Our animal and paw print scrubs include dogs, cats, paws and wildlife, in the same clinical-grade fabrics as our plain scrubs. For theatre and dental work, our scrub caps include fun printed caps as well as plain caps from Dickies and WonderWink.
Clinic Logo Embroidery & Team Orders
We embroider clinic logos, staff names and job titles in-house at our Sunshine Coast workroom, on scrub tops, pants and jackets. If we don't have your logo on file yet, we digitise it in-house. Turnaround is 5 business days after you approve the artwork. For multi-site vet groups, our business orders team manages sizing and keeps colours consistent across every reorder.

Vet Scrubs FAQs
What are the best scrubs for vet nurses?
For most vet nurses, Wink W123 is the best all-rounder: 100% microfibre polyester with 4-way stretch, light, quick to dry, with multiple utility pockets. If you prefer a more structured fit, Dickies Balance is the next most popular. For surgery and emergency nursing, Cherokee Infinity adds an antimicrobial finish.
Which vet scrubs are best for pet hair?
Smooth, polyester-rich fabrics are best, because hair brushes off them rather than working into the weave. That means Wink W123, Wink Boundless, Cherokee Infinity and Dickies Balance. Cotton-rich blends such as Dickies EDS Signature pick up more hair. Printed tops hide hair better than dark solid colours.
Can you embroider our clinic logo on vet scrubs?
Yes. We embroider clinic logos, staff names and job titles in-house. Turnaround is 5 business days after artwork approval, and we hold logo files for many Australian vet clinics. See custom embroidery or call 1300 661 475.
Do vet scrubs come in plus sizes?
Yes. Most styles run from XXS to 5XL across Cherokee, Dickies and Wink. Browse plus size scrubs, or call us for sizing advice on a particular style.
What colour scrubs do vets wear?
There's no national colour code for vet clinics in Australia, so each practice chooses its own. Navy, black, teal and charcoal are the most common. Our vet scrubs guide covers colours by role, fabrics and washing in detail.
