Sassy Scrubs is the Crystal Clear Choice for Steuben Glass, Manufacturer of the World’s Finest Lead Crystal

Sassy Scrubs, manufacturer of custom made uniforms, recently partnered with Steuben Glass, manufacturer of the world’s finest lead crystal, to provide a solution to better protect the glass company’s employees. In the process of glass-making, certain abrasives are necessary, which require finishing employees to wear a uniform jacket to help protect their clothing and skin from stains and abrasions.

Steuben Glass not only needed a quality garment that would withstand the processes of glass-making, but that would also withstand their rigorous cleaning processes. High on the list of priority for Steuben Glass, of course, was to be sure the garments would still be comfortable for the artisans to wear.

Steuben Glass, of Corning, New York, realized they needed a superior garment to protect their artisans during their work. Due to the precision necessary while each piece was cut, polished, and engraved by hand, the artisans were exposed to fine particle abrasives which coated them and clogged the zippers of their protective clothing. This caused the clothing to be short-lived and difficult to wear and remove. They looked to Sassy Scrubs to help solve this problem.

The Penn Yan, New York uniform manufacturer and e-tailer custom made garments for each artisan, both men and women, in varied sizes and lengths, as required by their jobs. Sassy Scrubs President, Karen Bradley, states “We were honored to be approached by Steuben Glass to produce a solution for them and were excited by the challenge.” Sassy Scrubs produced high quality snap front jackets with special pocket placements, choosing durable fabric that would not fade or ravel, regardless of the destructive abrasives to which they were exposed and despite the heavy duty gas dryers that are used in Steuben Glass’s in-house laundry. The glass company has been very pleased with the fit and durability of the custom designed Sassy Scrubs jackets.

The choice for Steuben Glass was crystal clear – Sassy Scrubs. The partnership was a good fit, adds Steuben Glass Finishing Supervisory Assistant Bob Morse, stating “Sassy Scrubs offered the quality jackets we needed, and they’re holding up very well.”

Steuben Glass discovered that Scrubs aren’t just for doctors and nurses.

I Love Sandals! How About You?

I simply love sandals! In fact, one of my favorite things about Spring weather is that I get to go into my closet and pull out all of those great sandals and cute little shoes that have been hibernating all winter! And if they look a little too worn out from last year, what better way is there to spend a rainy Spring day than shopping for new shoes!

I work in an office setting, and sandals are so much easier to kick off during the day than a pair of sneakers or boots! I'm sure my mother still cringes when she hears about me running around in my bare feet. I just can't help myself. Not only do I despise having my feet trapped all day while I work, I love the feel of fresh grass between my toes in the Spring and warm beach sand or hot grass under my feet in the Summer!

Does anyone else out there have a sandal or shoe fetish?! Come on, I can't be the only one. I'm curious..... After a long day spent in nursing shoes or Crocs, what do you like to slip into at home for comfort?

Now, let's take our shoe fetish to another level....Scrubs! Have you ever thought about featuring shoes on your scrubs? Did you know that Sassy Scrubs features scrubs with SHOES! Visit us at Sassy Scrubs and see what the excitement over shoes is all about.
