Women's short-sleeve lab coat
Velilla 539003 Women's Short-Sleeve Lab Coat: the one that meets the bare-forearm protocol
The women's white lab coat with short sleeves. It's not an aesthetic detail: the hand hygiene protocol in healthcare requires keeping the forearm bare below the elbow, and a long-sleeved coat makes that impossible unless you roll up the sleeves for every wash, which is exactly what doesn't happen. 190 g/m² polyester-cotton twill, semi-fitted cut. The long-sleeve version is reference 539002.
✅ Features
- Short sleeves: leave the forearm free, which is what the hand hygiene protocol requires when in contact with patients. They are also more comfortable in consulting rooms with high heating.
- Semi-fitted women's pattern: front and back side panels that shape the waist without taking away room at the shoulders.
- Belt and back vent: the belt defines the waist and the vent gives room to walk.
- Safety waist at the back: a seam that gives way before the fabric tears if the coat gets snagged.
- Three patch pockets: one chest pocket and two lower pockets.
- 65/35 twill, 190 g/m²: no elastane or chemical finishes, which makes it very tolerant of industrial washing.
👷 What jobs it's for
- Medical practices and health centres with direct patient contact.
- Dental and physiotherapy clinics.
- Pharmacies, parapharmacies and opticians.
- Veterinary clinics.
- Beauty centres, spas and thermal baths.
- Analysis laboratories in warm areas.

💡 Tip: If your team has direct contact with patients, short sleeves are not a preference: they are what allows you to comply with hand hygiene up to the elbow without rolling up your sleeves fifty times a day. Keep the long-sleeve coat (539002) for pharmacy counters, laboratories and administration, where it protects more of the arm and there is no constant handwashing.
Frequently asked questions
Why choose the Velilla 539003 short-sleeve lab coat?
The short sleeves leave the forearm free, which is what the hand hygiene protocol requires when in contact with patients. They are also more comfortable in consulting rooms with high heating.
What fabric is it made of?
It is made of twill, 65% polyester and 35% cotton, 190 g/m², with no elastane or chemical finishes. It tolerates industrial washing well.
What details does the cut have?
It is semi-fitted, with a women's pattern, front and back side panels, a belt and a back vent. It fastens with central buttons and has three patch pockets.
What sizes are available and how is it washed?
It is white and available in sizes XS, S, M, L, XL and 2XL. Wash at 60 °C with a chlorine-free optical brightener, because bleach yellows white polyester.

Frequently Asked Questions
Why choose short sleeves on a lab coat?
Because hand hygiene protocols when in contact with patients require forearms to be bare below the elbow. With long sleeves you would have to roll them up every time you wash your hands.
How does it differ from the 539002?
Only in the sleeves. The 539002 is the same women's coat but with long sleeves. Same pattern and same sizes from XS to 2XL.
When are long sleeves a better choice?
At pharmacy counters, in laboratories and in administration, where they protect more of the arm and hands are not washed constantly.
What size should I order?
By chest measurement. The semi-fitted cut is shaped at the waist, so your T-shirt size is not a reference.
Can it withstand industrial washing at 90 degrees?
The manufacturer specifies 60 °C. As it has no elastane or finishes, it tolerates the industrial cycle well, but the white suffers above 60 °C.
Can it be sterilised in an autoclave?
No. The polyester-cotton blend is not approved for autoclaving.
Can I use bleach?
No. Chlorine yellows white polyester irreversibly.
