Why do shirts have thumb holes

So what about in scrubs? We would say again the answer is yes, both function and fashion. Healthcare apparel like our women's zip front scrub jacket has always followed street clothes fashion trends and believe it or not, the thumb hole sleeve may even have a practical use in the health care field.

I was surprised to see how easily latex cloves slip on over the extended sleeve to form an additional barrier for protection. This cold gear base layer zip-up is perfect for lower temps. The high neck is perfect for adding warmth, and the moisture-wicking, fitted but loose fit serves well for layering without overheating.

The thumb holes are perfect for making sure cold air doesn't travel up through the wrists, and the holes are sized large enough that wearing gloves never interferes with the fit of the short around the thumb. This hoodie is made from recycled fabric a combo of polyester and elastane that wicks moisture to keep you warm and sweat-free. This top is lightweight, and the fabric is soft and absorbs the sweat. The length of this top is perfect—it lands right on your hips and can be worn on its own for the warmer fall days, or layered underneath for colder weather.

I'll use it as a base layer, midlayer, or even on its own. The half-zip on the top is awesome to let some extra airflow through the shirt if you are getting a bit sweaty or hot during your run or workout.

This breathable polyester and spandex top has arm vents to keep you cool and has three blocked colors in the top for a cool design. It's super lightweight, but super warm at the same time. The material is so soft and comfortable that I end up using it not only for running and working out, but also just for lounging around my apartment.

I've gotten away with using this top by itself for degree runs, so I think it's perfect for winter running. In this day and age of wellness and avocado toasts, athletic outfitters are living through a modern-day gold-rush.

As it stands the market is saturated with competition at both premium and affordable levels. For brands, the struggle to differentiate yourself is real and palatable but also nothing new.
