    Really comfortable and breathable. Nice that it comes with an extra veil and gloves too. Pretty much everything I need.

    SUIT CLEANING INSTRUCTIONS

    • CHECK POCKETS

      Ensure pockets are free of debris that could harm the fabric or lining.

    • PRE-TREAT STAINS

      Apply a light pre-treatment to remove grass or dirt stains.

    • SECURE ALL CLOSURES

      Zip or fasten any closures to keep them in place during washing.

    • HAND WASH + Machine wash

      The body of the suit can be machine washed on a gentle cycle. The veil must be hand washed to preserve its structure and mesh quality. Both components should be air dried for best results.

    • AIR DRY

      Hang the garment on a rack in a sunny spot instead of machine drying.

    Why Beekeepers Upgrade to 3-Layer Protection

    Traditional bee suits can offer protection, but often with less airflow . Here’s how our 3-layer suit compares.

    My husband got me into beekeeping this year, so this is my first real bee suit. Was kinda worried the hood would feel too closed in, but nope! Plenty of room around my face and honestly, once I get working, I barely even notice it's there.

    Way better than I thought it'd be. 6'1" here, got the XL for a little extra room. Fits nice, moves easy, and the veil stays off my face. Two hive checks in and no complaints so far!

    New to beekeeping and was given a cotton suit to start with. Was a bit small on me and got stung through it a fair few times. Upgraded to the Apiary Gear suit and havent had a single sting since. Fits so much better and definitely feel more protected in it.

    Best part for me is the hood. Mesh doesnt sit right against my face like my old suit did, so much easier to see what im doing. Zippers seem a lot stronger too.

    Been keeping bees for a few years now and I've worn this suit for a couple hive checks so far. Gotta say, I'm pretty impressed! Veil stays off my face, I can see just fine, and I can bend down and pull frames without the suit getting in my way. Pockets come in handy too. Really liking it so far.

    FAQ

    If you work in hot weather or around more defensive bees, go with the 3-Layer Ventilated Suit. It gives you better airflow and added sting protection. For everyday beekeeping in milder weather, the Polycotton Suit is a comfortable, durable choice.

    It can also be useful for jobs like wasp or hornet removal and other situations where you want extra protection from stinging insects.

    Both styles can be used in different weather conditions. The 3-Layer Ventilated Suit is the better pick for hotter days because it allows more airflow, while the Polycotton Suit works well for mild weather and general hive work.

    With normal use and a little care, it should hold up for several beekeeping seasons. We recommend a gentle wash and air drying to help keep the fabric, zippers, and elastic in good shape.

    Yes. The veil is removable, so you don’t need to replace the whole suit if something happens to it. Just swap in a compatible replacement veil and you’re good to go.
