Unisex snap-front warm-up scrub jacket
Description
The Cherokee Workwear Originals Snap Front Warm-Up Scrub Jacket (style 4350) is a traditional classic fit scrub cardigan designed to provide lightweight warmth and practical storage in clinical environments. It features a round jewel neck with a snap-front closure, long sleeves with knit cuffs that stay in place when pushed up, and a centre back length of approximately 27.5 inches. The jacket includes two lower front patch pockets plus an additional interior cell phone pocket on the right side, offering ample room for everyday essentials. Made from durable poly/cotton poplin with a soil-release finish, the fabric is breathable, fade-resistant and easy to care for in busy healthcare laundering routines. Marketed primarily as a women’s/relaxed fit warm-up jacket by Cherokee, some distributors list it as unisex or men’s/unisex fit due to its classic straight cut and broad size range.

Usage

- Wear over a scrub top as a warm-up layer, fastening the snap-front closure as needed for warmth and coverage.
- Use the two patch pockets and interior cell phone pocket to carry lightweight essentials such as a phone, pens, small notebook and instruments; avoid overloading pockets to maintain comfort and garment shape.
- Follow care label instructions: typically machine wash in cold or warm water with similar colours; do not bleach unless specified; use colour-safe detergents where possible.
- Tumble dry on low heat and remove promptly to minimise creasing; cool iron if required, avoiding very high temperatures that may affect the polycotton fabric or soil-release finish.
- Launder after each shift or according to local infection prevention and control policies.
- If embroidery is added, follow any additional care guidance provided by the embroidery or uniform supplier.
Contraindications
- Not suitable as certified personal protective equipment (PPE) when specific protective standards are required, such as fluid-impermeable, flame-resistant or chemical-resistant garments.
- Individuals with known sensitivities or allergies to polyester/cotton blends or textile finishing agents should assess compatibility before prolonged wear.
- Should not be used if heavily damaged, excessively worn, or altered in a way that compromises coverage, seam integrity or professional appearance.
Adverse Effects
- Occasional skin irritation or discomfort may occur in users sensitive to polyester/cotton fabrics or to detergents and softeners used in laundering.
- Improper sizing (too tight or too loose) can restrict movement, reduce comfort or increase snag risk.
- Incorrect laundering practices, such as excessive temperatures, harsh chemicals or repeated chlorine bleaching, may cause shrinking, colour fading or degradation of the fabric and soil-release finish.
Storage Conditions
- Store clean, fully dry jackets in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to reduce fading and fabric degradation.
- Hang on a hanger or fold neatly to avoid deep creases and maintain a professional appearance.
- Keep separate from soiled, contaminated or damp garments awaiting laundering to prevent cross-contamination and odour transfer.
- In shared uniform systems, store by size and colour with clear labelling to support efficient selection and stock control.
Duration
Intended for repeated, long-term use as part of a daily or regular work uniform; service life depends on frequency of wear, laundering conditions and work environment but the garment is designed to withstand many wash cycles.
Onset
Provides immediate warmth, coverage and pocket functionality upon first wear; durability and soil-release benefits are realised over continued use with appropriate laundering.
