Your healthcare team needs custom-branded apparel

Custom-branded workwear isn’t just for fast food workers or those who work in a corporate setting. Healthcare teams and students can wear custom apparel to show a recognizable and consistent brand identity. 

When done well, your custom-branded medical jackets or vests send a visual cue for who’s on the team so patients and families can quickly identify you. Custom-branded apparel raises professionalism even in casual healthcare settings, like an alternative health practitioner’s office. It helps build confidence with patients and clients.

If you choose custom healthcare apparel for your team, be sure you choose high-quality ones that are comfortable (so your team wants to wear them) and long-lasting (so you get the best value for your investment). Patagonia apparel is a smart choice.

Why Patagonia custom apparel?

We’ve worked with Patagonia for years and can attest to their quality and sustainability ethics. They’re a world leader in ethical sourcing and sustainability, to align with your school, hospital, or healthcare facility values. Purchasing sustainable workwear for your healthcare team shows your staff, patients and community that you care about the health of your patients and the environment. 

They’ve also been tested in rigorous environments to withstand the rugged use and wear and tear they’ll get in a healthcare setting.   

With Patagonia you get great-looking apparel and uniforms that are high quality enough for daily use or to be sold as merch to families and in fundraisers to boost brand awareness. It’s a keepsake they’re sure to cherish for years.
