White Howie Lab Coats

White Howie lab coats combine the distinctive high collar and offset wrap-front design of a Howie coat with a traditional white laboratory garment. The design provides greater physical coverage across the front of the body and around the neck than a conventional centre-front lab coat, making Howie coats a popular choice across laboratories, research, healthcare, pharmaceutical and other professional environments.

Our range of white Howie lab coats includes standard and premium styles, knitted-cuff options, anti-static ESD coats and white coats with contrasting coloured collars. Selected styles can also be personalised with embroidered names, job titles, departments or company and organisation logos.

Choosing a Howie Lab Coat

Howie lab coats share the characteristic high collar and offset front associated with the Howie design, but individual styles vary in features, colour, cuffs and specialist properties. When choosing a Howie coat, consider the working environment, required coverage, garment length, cuff style and whether specialist features such as anti-static properties are required.

Always check the individual product specification and any clothing or PPE requirements provided by your workplace, laboratory or educational institution.

What Is the Difference Between a Howie Coat and a Standard Lab Coat?

A standard lab coat typically has a conventional centre-front opening and lapel-style collar. A Howie coat instead uses a high collar and offset wrap-front design, providing greater physical coverage across the front of the body and around the neck.

Individual Howie coats can also include features such as knitted cuffs, specialist fabrics or anti-static properties. The appropriate garment depends on your working environment and any clothing or PPE requirements specified by your organisation.
