Introducing the Airy Scrub: The Future of Medical Uniforms

The medical industry is often seen as a realm of rigid professionalism, where functionality often supersedes style or comfort. However, FOLK Co., Ltd., a seasoned uniform manufacturer with 121 years of history based in Chiyoda, Tokyo, led by President Jun Kotani, is changing this narrative with their latest release. On March 13, 2024, they launched the "Air Scrub (7105SC)" under their FOLK private brand, available exclusively in their online store in limited quantities. This innovative medical scrub combines unparalleled lightness and coolness with sophisticated functionality, reminiscent of the elegant fabrics used in summer kimonos.


The Essence of Lightness

The Air Scrub weighs just 120.5 grams, making it significantly lighter than the conventional scrubs by 71.5 grams, based on a comparison with FOLK's best-selling scrub, the 7000SC in size M. Its air-like lightness, combined with a fabric that mirrors the vertical crepe used in visiting kimonos, offers a new level of comfort and sophistication in medical attire.


Comfort Meets Elegance

Crafted from Gia Codrein, a material known for its lightness and stretchability, the Air Scrub ensures ease of movement without compromising on the formal look that knit fabrics lack. The clever use of thick and thin yarns creates a smooth texture that feels good against the skin, providing comfort even during long hours of wear.


Designed for the Busy Medical Professional

Its thin fabric not only allows for efficient heat dissipation but also boasts superior quick-drying properties, making it an ideal choice for the hectic schedules of medical practitioners. This easy-care material ensures that the scrub is ready to wear after just a day's wash.


Durable and Hygienic

The Air Scrub's resilience to hot water and chlorine bleach treatments, including those using sodium hypochlorite solutions, speaks volumes about its durability and colorfastness. It withstands the rigorous laundry requirements of medical settings, such as dental clinics, making it a highly recommended choice for maintaining hygiene standards.


Product and Sales Information

The 7105SC unisex scrub is available in colors navy and black,limited to 100 pieces only. FOLK's introduction of the Air Scrub is a testament to their commitment to innovating within the medical uniform industry, blending functionality with style and comfort. This limited-edition scrub is not just a piece of clothing but a statement of elegance and practicality for medical professionals.
