Adjustable shoulder strap bra. (Double Overlap, Deep V, and Plunge)
For measuring and sizing advice please click on the size and fit guide then how to measure tab.
The double overlap bra offers the most coverage and support of the three. All styles down easily for nursing and can be worn for both nursing and non-nursing persons. The bras are made with adjustable shoulder straps. Please note that bras made in everyday wool will feel more snug as the fabric has more rebound, I still wear the same size in all wool types.
These bras vary only slightly from the non adjustable shoulder strap bras with the same names. The biggest difference is the D/DD cup has 1cm scooped out from the underarm and the DDD and G/H have 2cm scooped out.
Cup sizes D and up will have 18-20mm wide shoulder straps. Cups sizes C and below will have 10mm wide shoulder straps. Colours and patterns of the straps can vary slightly from what is shown due to what is currently available. I try to match as best as possible the strap with the fabric but it is not always available. When it is not available black, white, or beige will be used depending on if the colour is light, mid, or dark and/or what goes best. Feel free to write a comment in the order notes box if you prefer a specific colour.
We have a group of bras traveling through Europe and the USA if you are interested in trying one on before ordering. Please join the HumBird BST and find the featured post to learn more and sign up.

Please note the cross back strap lengths have been adjusted to be more in line with the straight back. As of April 1, 2023 they are 2cm shorter.
How to measure:
1. Measure your full bust to choose the BRA size. (XXS through XXXL). Please be aware that different body shapes wear will make the bra fit somewhat differently. I suggest buying the size you measure into (unless you know you prefer it a bit snugger or looser) and then deciding after wearing it if you would like to buy a different size. For the full bust I measure without a bra and pull the tape measure snug enough that nipples are flat.
2. Measure under the bust as follows for the BAND size. For the band size please put the tape measure very firmly against your skin and pull it TIGHT right under your breast. For medium bra we recommend a band size 4 or smaller, for large size 5 or smaller, XL 6 or smaller.
3. Measure your underbust again to help choose cup size. For the underbust do not pull the tape measure tight (like the for the band) just let it rest on your skin.
4. Pick your cup size by subtracting the underbust from the full bust measurement. Remember that bra fit is very personal and these are only recommendations.
5. We do not recommend changing the bra strap lengths until after you have worn one and decide based on your personal preference.
