(Part 2) Best uniforms, work & safety according to redditors

I wear these super cheap (sub-$40) crocks. Originally got them for the OR but now wear them all the time whenever I can wear scrubs. They’re insanely comfortable. I can stand on rounds for hours or walk around in them. Highly recommend - Link below:

This is my absolute favorite top and these are my all-time favorite bottoms. We have to wear navy, and these two are close enough in color that no one notices they're different brands. I am insanely picky in my scrubs, especially regarding pockets.

These were the closest i could find.

I will admit to being 100% against black clothing. It's too hot to suffer through the 1/2 mile to my car after work. I LOVE LOVE LOVE your T-shirt and blazer idea.

I bought this pair last week.

I used Amazon's Wardrobe function to get these.

I’m a nurse and currently 34 weeks pregnant. My normal scrubs became uncomfortable around 12-15 weeks so I bought a few pair that have a yoga pant type band (https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01N3QUA7W/ref=cm_sw_r_sms_c_api_8TtZAbYW4SEVM). I fully expected to need actual maternity scrubs eventually but I’m still wearing these with no issues.

Lol everyone on the army subreddit trips over themselves to praise those Garmont boots

Personally, I've enjoyed these reebok boots(yes, they're the women's version of them):

Good luck at ocs!

I wear these. Light, move well, dry quickly, and they're the only thing I've found that eliminates chub rub for me

The drawstring on my black pair just broke, but other than that they've held up well all summer.

Like I already said, if you refuse to buy purses, its a non-issue. If you back a clothes company into a wall, they will sell what you want to buy.

They just usually aren’t fashionable.

I bought a few different scrub pants that have a waistband other than the usual kind, and they’ve fit me through my whole pregnancy (37 weeks now). I was really reluctant to buy maternity specific ones, and these I can continue to wear postpartum!

pair 3

These look pretty similar, although they don’t have a buckle:

I bought these Med Couture maternity scrubs: https://www.amazon.com/Med-Couture-Womens-Maternity-V-Neck/dp/B01IAHQ56C/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1520525996&sr=8-2&keywords=med+couture+maternity+scrubs

I am a size XL for reference, I thought they fit better and provided more room in the bust than the grey's anatomy ones. I think they are really comfy and the material is cooler than cotton.

Hey! I'm in the same boat. I've been a barista/bartender for 4 years. Most of the places I worked at didnt care too much about footwear, but my new job specifically requires nonslip.

I like the SafeTStep brand from Payless. I had a pair of their black converse style shoes years ago, and they have a cushy insole and are indeed nonslip. They lasted me a little over a year, which isnt too bad for the price I think.

I found these and these that look promising. I've heard good things about danskos, both the clogs and the flats. The flats actually are pretty cute, but they're also about 120-150.

I wore stretchy skirts with forgiving waistbands and professional shirts but untucked. Dresses are good too, unless they're too fitted in the abdominal area. Go for flowy tops and some workpants that have some give. I like these:

I have no butt, and these are my favorite. They’re yoga band stretch in the back half, then the front is drawstring. Have no issues with them staying up, even with full pockets!

I’m 36 weeks and still wearing these. They have a wide elastic waistband that sits comfortably under my bump. The drawstring doesn’t do much. They don’t slip down constantly like the rest of my drawstring pants.

I just got these cargo pants that I like, and I think they'll work with a belt for some of my stuff... but was going to see if there was something better.

I got these about a month ago. They work pretty well. But it does depend on your feet. The insoles are removable so you can put your own in there if you have them.

You can get capri length joggers and just fabric paint the black and green parts. The shoes look like crocs or work clogs like this. Pretty easy to paint as well. Same for painting some cheap lawn goggles.
