In brief
Happythreads hosted a live size fitting event at St. Vincent Hospital's Radiology Department, letting staff feel and try on five medical workwear collections (Koi Basics, Koi Cureology, Koi Next Gen, Koi Solis, and Orange Standard) before buying. Participants found their ideal fit, had the hospital's logo embroidered on their new scrubs, and walked away with comfortable, professional medical apparel chosen firsthand rather than off a size chart.

Why Trying On Medical Scrubs Before You Buy Actually Matters
Let's be honest, choosing new medical workwear from a screen is never quite the same as trying it on. You can stare at product photos all day, zoom in on fabric close-ups, scroll through size charts, and still not really know how a scrub top will feel after hour six of a shift. That's exactly the gap Happythreads set out to close last week, when our team packed up racks of our favorite collections and headed straight to the Radiology Department at St. Vincent Hospital for a hands-on, in-person size fitting event.
Inside Our Live Size Fitting Event at St. Vincent Hospital's Radiology Department
As a company that has worked with hospitals, clinics, and medical institutions before, Happythreads continues to invest in building lasting relationships with healthcare providers who care about the quality, comfort, and professionalism of their staff's uniforms. Events like this one are a direct reflection of that strategy: rather than simply supplying medical scrubs and workwear from a distance, we bring the experience directly to the people who wear it every day.
During the event, staff got to feel the fabrics in their hands, slip into different fits, and see side by side how each collection actually moves and breathes. No pressure, no commitment, just a genuine chance to figure out what fits their body and their workday best, before spending a single euro. If you ask us, that's how buying medical apparel should always feel.
The Medical Workwear/Scrubs Collections We Brought
Along
For this event, we brought along a lineup that covers pretty much every taste and need:
- Koi Basics for the classic, no-fuss essentials
- Koi Cureology and Koi Next Gen for those who want a bit more innovation in their fabric
- Koi Solis for a lighter, softer feel
- Orange Standard for a dependable everyday option
Five collections, one room, and a whole department of radiology staff ready to touch, try, and compare.
What made this event especially valuable was the opportunity for hands-on interaction. Instead of guessing which scrub pants might work best or hoping a top runs true to size, staff got to feel the fabrics in their hands, slip into different fits, and see side by side how each collection actually moves and breathes. This made it far easier to identify which medical workwear truly suited their individual needs and daily routines. No pressure, no commitment, just a genuine chance to figure out what fits their body and their workday best, before spending a single euro.
Custom Embroidery: Turning Scrubs into Team Identity
Here's the part we especially love: once someone found their perfect fit, we didn't just hand over a plain uniform. Together with the department, we'd already arranged to embroider the hospital's own logo onto the pieces. It's a small detail, but it makes a big difference, turning a simple scrub top into something that actually represents the team wearing it. There's a quiet kind of pride that comes from putting on a uniform that feels like it belongs to you, and to your department.
Why Happythreads Invests in B2B Healthcare Partnerships
At the end of the day, this wasn't just about selling healthcare uniforms, it was about listening to what radiology staff actually need from their workwear, and letting them discover it for themselves. Comfortable, well-fitted medical scrubs aren't a nice-to-have, they're part of what makes a demanding shift a little more bearable. And when people feel good in what they're wearing, it shows.
Want a Live Fitting Event at Your Hospital?
This is exactly the kind of experience Happythreads wants to keep building on. If your hospital, clinic, or department is curious about a live fitting event of your own, or just wants to know more about how our B2B partnerships work, we'd love to bring the collections to you. No screens, no guesswork, just great medical workwear you can actually feel before you commit.
