Features

• Protection with ventilation: triple-layer fabric mesh allows optimal airflow while safeguarding against bee stings
• Reduced risk of stings: protective barrier and patented hood design keep the mesh away from your face
• Easy to wear: leg-high zippers and adjustable Velcro and elastics for a comfortable fit, veils attach with zippers
• Durable and long-lasting: strong metallic Italian mesh, reinforced with rayon and twill tape stitching
• Enhanced features: YKK zippers with double sliders for easy access, and a flap over the front zipper for extra security
• Round hat: high-visibility mesh round brim hat that opens from the front for convenience

Why a Round Brim Hat?

Unlike a fencing veil that focuses your view forward, the round brim hat holds mesh evenly away from your face on every side, giving full peripheral vision, useful for tracking activity around you during multi-hive work or when supervising others.

Why the Details Matter

The overlap neck zipper prevents any gap for bees to enter, while nylon YKK zippers run smoother and last longer than brass alternatives. Double sliders give easy access to internal pockets and bathroom convenience, and reinforced twill tape stitching adds strength at every stress point.

What type of veil comes with this suit?

How does the 3-layer mesh protect against stings?

Three mesh layers combine to exceed the length of a bee's stinger, physically stopping it from reaching skin while still allowing airflow.

Why choose khaki over white?

Khaki hides propolis stains, smoker soot, and honey drips that show quickly on white, keeping the suit looking professional through years of use.
