Canadian scrub brands compared (2026)

If you want scrubs from a Canadian brand, the direct-to-consumer options in October 2026 are KOA Health Heroes (Calgary), Garde-Malade, Luuna Scrubs, Pitt & Grûv and JOIIA. FIGS is the US premium option, with a Canadian store. Women's joggers run from about $40 CAD at JOIIA to $72 CAD at FIGS. KOA's High Rise Scrub Jogger is $58 CAD at one price that does not move. KOA is not the lowest-priced option on this page.

Last updated: 8 October 2026. Prices are in Canadian dollars, read from each brand's own store on that date (sources are listed at the end). They change, so confirm on the brand's site before you buy.

How do the prices compare?

Brand Jogger Top What we saw on 8 Oct 2026
KOA Health Heroes $58 CAD $47 CAD One price, no markdowns
Garde-Malade $68 CAD $53–55 CAD Regular prices on its home page; its collection page also showed some styles marked down (a men's jogger at $35.50, from $71)
Luuna Scrubs $66 CAD $46 CAD Regular price shown, with markdowns on nearly every style (jogger from $26, top from $20)
Pitt & Grûv $51 CAD $35 CAD Regular price, with some colourways marked down (one women's jogger colourway from $26)
JOIIA $40–44 CAD $34 CAD Regular price, no markdowns found in its product feed
FIGS (Canadian store) $72 CAD $58 CAD Duties included in the price

The table shows a snapshot of one day. KOA's approach is different from the brands that mark styles down: the price on a KOA product page is the price, and it stays the same for every customer.

What does each brand do well?

FIGS sits at the premium end, with a Canadian store that prices in CAD and includes duties. You pay for that at $72 a jogger against KOA's $58. See the full KOA vs FIGS comparison.

Garde-Malade describes its uniforms on its own Canadian site as made in Canada. Its regular jogger and top prices sit above KOA's.

Luuna Scrubs lists sizes from 3XS to 3XL on its collection page and has a team scrubs page.

Pitt & Grûv describes its scrubs on its own site as having an antimicrobial coating and pet-hair-resistant fabric, and sells loupe straps, which suits dental and veterinary teams. Its regular prices are below KOA's.

JOIIA has the lowest regular joggers and tops on this page.

KOA is Canadian-owned and run from Calgary. Garments are made overseas to KOA's own specification and ship from Calgary. The women's high-rise joggers and one-pocket top are 72% polyester, 21% rayon and 7% spandex four-way stretch. The range includes high-rise joggers with five pockets in Regular and Petite, one-pocket tops, and a clinics programme with local logo embroidery. Complimentary shipping from $105 in Canada and the US, and complimentary returns within 30 days on items that are unworn, unwashed and with tags on (embroidered garments excluded).

Which should you pick?

  • You want the lowest regular price: JOIIA and Pitt & Grûv list below KOA.
  • You want the premium brand: FIGS.
  • You buy for a dental, veterinary or optometry team: compare Pitt & Grûv, Luuna's team scrubs page and KOA. KOA offers team pricing from 5 sets as a standing service, local embroidery, and a size sheet kept on file so a reorder takes one email. See the KOA guides for dental, veterinary and optometry teams.
  • You want a price that stays the same, and you may be ordering from the US: KOA charges one price and ships to Canada and the US.
