2. Carhartt Women’s Force Cross-Flex Cargo Jogger Scrub Pant
The Cross-Flex Cargo Jogger is the quintessential “work hard, look chill” Carhartt scrub bottom. It fuses athleisure styling with the brand’s workwear DNA—double-layer knees, bar-tacked stress points, and knit cuffs that refuse to sag even after back-to-back shifts. If you’ve been hunting for a jogger that survives both the washer and the trauma bay, start here.

Why We Picked It for 2025
Many hospitals still ban joggers; this pant answers with board-room polish and fresh neutrals that pair with any Liberty or Cross-Flex top.
