Every nurse and nursing student knows that when your scrubs are uncomfortable, the whole day just feels harder.

And that is why I love figs.

These aren't the stiff, scratchy scrubs that I had to wear in nursing school.

Figs are made for modern medicine.

They're soft, they're breathable, and they're cut to actually fit real bodies.

Plus, they're antimicrobial, durable enough to survive

countless washes, and honestly, they look so good, I kind of look forward to going to work.

One of my go-to sets is the catarina top paired with the Cade pants. The Caterina has this

effortless fit that I love, and the Cade's cargo pockets are

absolutely lifesavers when I need all kinds of things at my fingertips. With Figs, I feel

professional, comfortable, and ready for whatever the day brings. You can get 15% off your first

is going to be like 12-ish to 16 for women, 14 to 18 for men. That can vary slightly depending on what your hospital, your facility is using as a

reference range.

So, of course, take that with a grain of salt.

But there are many times, especially in the clinical setting, where hemoglobin is low.
