FAQ

Sizing & Fitting

What size should I buy?

To find the best fit, consult the size chart connected to the product you are interested in.

What sizes do your scrubs come in? Do you have petite or tall sizes?

Our scrubs come in a wide range of sizes from XXS to 5XL. Additionally, we offer petite and tall lengths for scrub pants to ensure a perfect fit for everyone.

Materials & Quality

Why are all of your scrubs made of polyester instead of cotton?

Polyester is preferred over cotton for its durability, moisture-wicking, stain resistance, and professional look.

Our updated polyester is also breathable and soft, ensuring long-lasting comfort and a neat appearance throughout the day.

Are your scrubs eco-friendly or made from sustainable materials?

Yes, we have scrubs made from sustainable materials. Our "EPIC by IRG" collection is crafted using recycled polyester fabric, while the "Grey's Anatomy Evolve Stretch" collection combines recycled polyester with CiCLO® technology.

How should I care for my scrubs to make them last longer?

To extend the life of your scrubs, wash them separately from other clothes using cold water to prevent stains from setting. Tumble dry on low heat or hang to dry to avoid shrinking and color fading, and iron or steam if needed to remove wrinkles.

Embroidery

Do you offer embroidery service in Ottawa?

Yes. All embroidery is done in-house at our Ottawa location inside Carlingwood Shopping Centre.

How does the embroidery process work?

Visit us in-store to place your order or drop off your item. You’ll fill out our embroidery form with the name, title, or logo you want added, and choose your thread colour, font, and placement. If you’re adding a logo, you can email us the file and we’ll digitize it if needed. Once everything is set, we’ll complete the embroidery and contact you when your item is ready for pickup.

How long does embroidery take?

Turnaround time depends on volume and design complexity. Most single-item name embroideries are completed within a few days, and we’ll confirm the timing when you place your order. If you need your item sooner, we’re flexible — same-day embroidery is sometimes possible, and we’ll do our best to accommodate your request.

How do I submit a logo for embroidery?

Email your logo file to us at ohlala@ohlalascrubs.ca. We’ll digitize it and send you a sample for approval before we begin the full embroidery.

Can I get a quote before visiting?

Yes — you can contact us through the form below or email your design to ohlala@ohlalascrubs.ca. We’ll provide a quote and walk you through the next steps.

Can I bring my own scrubs or items for embroidery?

Yes — you can bring in your own scrubs, jackets, or tops for embroidery. Pricing for outside items is slightly different from embroidery on items purchased in-store. You can refer to our pricing chart for details, and we’ll confirm the exact cost when you place your order.

Do you accept group or clinic orders?

Yes. We regularly work with local clinics, hospitals, and medical teams. Larger orders qualify for discounted pricing. Contact us at ohlala@ohlalascrubs.ca for details.
