UNIFORM OUTLET Competitors

Vera Bradley began as an instinct. An instinct fueled by the optimism, passion, and bold self-expression of our founders, who imagined a more colorful, beautiful world — specifically a more beautiful world of bags and travel accessories. They listened to themselves and invited generations of women to listen to be their own muses. That, together with a passion for design, artistry, and craft, has inspired independent women everywhere to embrace their very personal and unique individual styles. We exist to champion all the ways women move today, enriching everyday moments and playing a supporting role in their adventures. We do that by listening to our own muse, and to yours. In a very real sense, Vera Bradley belongs to every woman who rejects the notion of sameness and the suggestion of conformity and chooses to be bold and expressive in all the ways that matter to them. Vera Bradley designs for you because Vera Bradley is you. And you are your own muse. Our vision of hope ... Vera Bradley Co-founders Barbara Bradley Baekgaard and Patricia R. Miller began raising funds for breast cancer research in 1993 after the loss of their dear friend, Mary Sloan. Since then, their genuine commitment to this cause has evolved into the Vera Bradley Foundation for Breast Cancer. Together with our donors, event participants and volunteers, we hope for a future free from breast cancer. $25.7 million in contributions have been raised so far to support critical advancements in breast cancer research.

Scrubs & Beyond was founded in 2000 with the thinking that the healthcare retail experience could be completely transformed. The result was a retail experience that elevated medical professional essentials beyond the practical — and added a much-needed sense of humanity that was otherwise missing in the industry. Today, more than 20 years later, Scrubs & Beyond is the largest retailer of healthcare apparel and accessories in the country. Scrubs & Beyond is proud to be part of Kindthread, an ecosystem of brands dedicated to serving and transforming the healthcare apparel industry while driving positive community impact.
