The "Curie" Women's Cotton Lab Coat (Gen 2)
$59.95 - $82.95
Lab coats are holding scientists back, and together we’re going to fix that. By listening to 1000+ scientists, we designed this white women's lab coat with 100% USA-grown cotton to solve these frustrations so that you can finally feel professional, confident, and safe every time you suit up. See Women's Size Chart Here (Updated Nov. 2025).
*All sizes will be re-stocked again in early June 2025.
This lab coat is made from 100% cotton and all-metal snaps, which is accepted in most standard laboratory environments including introductory chemistry and biology lab classes. Please check with your lab safety officer for compatibility.
Fire:
100% Cotton provides better protection against flames than polyester or poly-cotton mixtures because polyester will melt to your skin and prevent emergency lab coat removal. 100% cotton is not “FR”, “flame-retardant” or “fire-proof”, and will burn slowly if exposed to intense flames. If your lab requires “FR” lab coats, get on our email list for our future release with flame retardant materials.
Acids:
Most lab coat materials, including 100% cotton, absorb strong acids and may develop holes from exposure. Always wear a neoprene, rubber, or PVC apron and long acid-resistant gloves on top of your lab coat when handling strong acids.

"The Curie" Lab Coat
Named after Dr. Marie Curie (Sklodowska), the brilliant chemist, physicist, and two-time Nobel Prize Winner for her research in radioactivity.
This lab coat embodies the pioneering and fearless spirit of Dr. Curie: unafraid to challenge the status quo and striving to give women opportunities to succeed in scientific research.
Every stitch is designed for scientists: from chemistry to microbiology to genomics, we're thinking of how your daily needs are different from doctors.
Features that Make research effortless
Hidden Adjustable Belt
Use the stitched-in soft cotton belt to pull the waist in up to 8 inches to fit your figure. The extra fabric folds neatly at your sides so you can look professional and feel confident in your work.
Dedicated utensil Slots
Stay organized and on task with everything right where you need it. The smaller stitched slots help keep your tools from sliding out when you bend or remove your lab coat.
Zippered side vents
Those knobs can't touch you now! We added zippers to the side access vents so you can get to your inner pockets in a pinch without getting snagged by knobs and equipment when you walk.
Back pleat for room to reach
This hidden back pleat opens up to two inches when you reach for those precursors in the back of the cabinet so your wrists stay protected and you stay comfy.
You like your skin. Let's keep it protected.
100% Soft Cotton Twill
A proprietary weave of durable, tightly woven, medium-weight American-grown cotton twill for protection. Finished with softening and stain-release non-chemical processes. It won't melt onto your skin like polyester.
Long knit cuffs
Soft rib-knit cotton cuffs gently hug your wrists to keep your skin protected as you reach for those chemicals in the back. Tapered forearm sleeves also help keep your lab coat out of your science.
Quick-release snaps
All-metal stainless steel snaps that won't melt shut when you've got to get out quickly. Whether it's a fire, chemical explosion, or lunch time - no more messing around with unthreading buttons in a hurry.
Convertible collar
Lay it flat for the classic look and pop that collar when it's time to get down to business. Protect your neck and chest from unexpected splashes and explosions.
How it fit our beta testers
First reactions from the Curie Lab Coat
Kristen, Chemistry Educator
"As a small woman, lab coats have never fit well. The sleeves are long and get wet, when rolled they get caught, the openings don’t line up with pockets in my attire, and the labs coats are never flattering. The Curie Lab Coat by Genius Lab Gear fixes all those problems with arm cuffs, invisible belts, and sizing that is made for my stature. It’s not only flattering, it’s crisp white and has so many amazing pockets and loops to solve problems I didn’t even realize I had! I can hold all my classroom supplies from small iPads to white board markers and it doesn’t feel clunky and I still look very professional."
Anna, Registered Dental Hygienist
"This lab coat is perfection! Great pockets, waist adjustability, darting and pleats. I look professional and feel protected by the knit cuffs and high collar. The snaps are strong and secure and I have plenty of room to stash my phone, pens, magnification loupes, and note pads. I have plenty of room to move and stretch and reach for items. I find this true to size. I ordered a 2X and wear a size 14 in women's clothes. My other lab coats are a Large or XL. This may run slightly smaller but works great for my hourglass figure. The form and function, fabrication and design are better than some of the lab coats I own that cost 3x as much."
Nadja, Lab Research Manager
"When I tried on my lab coat for the first time, I immediately fell in love. It fits perfectly. I am small and it has previously been challenging to find a lab coat because nothing fit. All lab coats were wide, long, big, and looked terrible. Instead this lab coat is tailored, not too long, not too short, gives enough room, and the material is high-quality. I cannot get over the zippers on both sides and all the hidden pockets. Such attention to detail can only be a result of lots of passion, effort, and dedication. The lab coat feels professional, safe, AND stylish...like a real outfit. The compliments I receive make me feel like a celebrity. I recommend this most beautiful lab coat ever to everyone!
Hidden details that matter
Built for durability
Extra stitching at key stress points prevents tears and steel pocket zippers from top supplier YKK will help this last and reduce waste.
Easy to hang and Identify
Our tagless design reduces itchy-neck and makes YOUR lab coat easy to identify on the rack. A generous hanger loop prevents it from slipping off.
Shoulder-mounted markers
An extra low-profile double-loop lets you keep markers securely on your shoulder for easy access when you don't want them on your chest.
Keep your phone isolated
Don't let your phone interact with your contaminated tools. We added a nested front pocket perfectly sized for a phone, OR as a second location for our pocket protectors.
