5 great scrubs ideas for off duty

Guillermo-DiazAngel Garcia, (Guillermo Diaz), is a male nurse at Mercy.  Angel’s uniform is a pair of scrubs, printed t-shirt and hoodie.  Angel’s burgundy scrub pants look great with his tees, making an eclectic style that works for him.

(5) Angel is one of the few guys who can walk to work wearing his entire hospital uniform and look hip. Add a navy pea coat and he’s ready for colder weather. He could take off his hoodie and wear a worn button down shirt with his t-shirt and scrubs and look great.

Angel has that kind of look that any guy in his twenties would want to emulate; a cool look in an understated way.

So as you can see, scrubs aren’t only for the hospital.  Mix your extra scrubs with other clothes in your closet; you’ll be surprised what great new looks you’ll create!

    This is a very cool idea. I’ve been wearing my extra scrubs tops off duty for years…looks great with a jean jacket. And my scrubs bottoms are lightweight and terrific to wear rolled up in the summer with a pair of sandals. Scrubs are affordable and come in some great styles and cuts…
