Frequently Asked Questions
How does the nursing access work?
Isabella features discreet dual zippers hidden within the rib design. Unzip either side for easy nursing or pumping access, then zip it closed for a seamless everyday look.
Will the zippers touch or scratch my skin?
The zippers are designed with protective fabric guards that help keep the zipper teeth and hardware away from your skin for comfortable wear.
What is the difference between Organic and Classic?
The Organic version is crafted from OEKO-TEX® certified organic cotton and recycled fibers for maximum sustainability. The Classic version uses our signature premium fleece blend, designed for high-performance durability and an ultra-soft, plush feel. Both feature the same hidden zipper technology.
Can I use wearable breast pumps inside?
Absolutely. The discreet side zippers open wide enough to comfortably accommodate standard wearable pumps (like Elvie or Willow) without stretching or exposing your midsection.
Is it oversized? Should I size down?
Yes, the Isabella is designed with a relaxed, intentionally oversized drape. If you prefer a more tailored, closer fit, we recommend sizing down one full size.
Can I wear it after I stop nursing?
Definitely. The zippers are color-matched and completely invisible when zipped. Most of our customers continue wearing the Isabella as their favorite everyday layer long after their nursing journey ends.
Does it shrink after washing?
To maintain the premium fit and softness, we recommend machine washing cold and laying flat to dry or tumble drying on low heat.
How fast will my order arrive?
We usually ship within 1–2 business days, and you’ll receive a tracking number as soon as it’s on its way. Most U.S. orders arrive in 3–5 business days depending on location.
Oversized and comfy, and great for breastfeeding. Ordered the olive color and it’s not green at all (returned and got a new one - color still the same). The olive is more tan. Still kept it, just not what I expected

Great sweatshirt! Zippers work well, and it’s held up after washing. Thick and warm. Sizing is (purposely) generous/oversized. I’ve gotten lots of compliments!

This sweatshirt is great and such a convenient nursing sweatshirt! It’s so nice to have something I don’t need to take off or bunch up under my neck to be able to nurse. The zippers function great and feel hidden not like a typical “nursing shirt”. I love the color. It fits well with some room to spare but I do wish it felt a little more oversized. And I had thought based on the listing that this one had pockets, but it did not. I do wish this style had pockets. Those are the only reasons it’s not a full 5 star for me. But I’d definitely recommend and will likely purchase additional other styles from S&M for myself.
Hello J.,
Thank you for your thoughtful feedback! We're so glad you love the nursing sweatshirt's design and functionality, and we appreciate your suggestions about the fit and pockets. We'll share this with our team for consideration. We look forward to seeing you again for more styles from S&M!

The nursing cutouts work as I had hoped, and the sweatshirt is cute and doesn’t look like the standard nursing shirts, which I appreciate. However, the seams between the stripes of fabric don’t sit flat after washing, they should be ironed to look nice. The sweatshirt could be improved by changing to a lay-flat seam between stripes. I am 5’9” tall and 165 lbs, and the M/L fits true to size. I would have liked it to be a bit more oversized.
