A smock gown and a lab gown are not the same, though they serve similar purposes in providing protection. A smock gown is typically a loose-fitting garment worn over clothes to protect against dirt, stains, or minor splashes, often used in art studios or workshops. A lab gown, or lab coat, is specifically designed for use in scientific or medical environments, offering more protection against chemical spills, biological contaminants, and other laboratory hazards.
