Professional Beekeeper Suit (Jacket, Pants, Gloves) Beekeeping Suit Bee Suits for Men Women

I am very allergic to wasps and similar. I had to clear a grown over flower bed that was infested with wasps. This worked very well to protect my face and arms. No stings despite several of them trying to get my face. I am not sure it would have protected my legs or torso as it was a little too tight, but I am loosing weight and it will be fine when it is more loose fitting. I wear a size 2X and am 5"3. The top was just fine, but I am heavier in my bottom half. I have large hips and this was almost too tight for me, but I got it on and was able to bend over without any seams splitting for the few hours I wore it. If you are close to a 1X or even a Large, this would be ideal for you. This isn't going to be sturdy enough for frequent use, but I didn't need that and even if it starts to fail, the gloves and hat appear to be plenty sturdy and will provide most of the protection. Very happy with the soft leather gloves. I was able to grasp weeds well. This isn't durable enough for a lot of thorns (I had some), but it hung in there. Do wear a baseball hat under this hat to give more protection to the top of your head and keep it in place better so you can see. Temperature was pretty good in it. It was a very hot Texas morning and while it was warm, it was not as bad as I expected, it's a fairly loose weave. Bonus that it protects you from sun pretty well too. The stress reduction of knowing they couldn't sting me was well worth the price and the little bit of extra warmth during the project.

GREAT quality for the price. Cost us, in total, with soap etc. 25% of the cost of the professional our neighbor hired (which I would recommend a professional if you're not a do-it-yourself type - THIS IS NO JOKE - my husband got stung 2x before getting the suit and it can be dangerous and life threatening to approach a yellow jacket's nest ill prepared). He also watched a lot of videos. We learned to handle it in the evening when they're asleep - not during the day. The yellow jacket hive was in the ground with what appeared to be just a hole in our yard. He drowned them with dish soap, used a wet vac to vacuum them up, then dug up the nest (which can be 4 feet deep) - NO BEE STINGS with this suit which we're happy to have since we're seeing more nests in the neighborhood and may need to use again. HIGHLY RECOMMEND THE SUIT FOR U.S. East Coast YELLOW JACKET NEST. Do not, do not approach yellow jacket nest (they are aggressive and chased him-they will chase you!) without a suit for yellow jackets or call the professional..not worth it. Our only experience is with yellow jackets and cannot speak to the effectiveness of the suit in other situations. Do your research.

This looks like a nice bee suit. I’ve never had one so I don’t know as far as quality or thickness of material. I will say, I usually wear an xl and for something like this I would order a xxl for myself. Several reviews said it runs small. I didn’t buy this for myself but for a mannequin display in my shop with bee products. I was thinking of getting these to sell in my shop. But just looking at this one on the mannequin; I think they run VERY small. But is very nice. The hat zips to the shirt, and the shirt has elastic at the waist and cuffs of sleeves and the pants are elastic at the waist and ankles. So the shirt and pants overlap each other. The gloves are long and come up over the sleeves of the shirt and have elastic in the ends of the gloves.* I just double checked: I ordered a a xl-xxl but it runs like a Medium in size.

Used to get rid of in ground hornets nest. First time doing this.I am 5'-7", 220 lbs, this would fit a bigger man. I bought the XXLAll hands, waste and feet have strong elastic, no hornets got through. Gloves are very nice, thick leather, thick cloth goes up to your elbow with strong elastic. Upper body has good net mask, the head top can be unzipped and flipped to the rear like a hoodie if you need to get to your face or head. I chose to wear a hat under neath because I was afraid the hornets would sting my head. The cloth is thick and the hornets stingers did not have a chance. I literally stood at the nest spraying and praying, thousands of hornets buzzed and hit me, was kinda worried at first (had never done this), but the suit protects you 100%. The hornets covered me like crazy to defend their nest. I shoveled the nest around, kept spraying, hopefully the 10 cans of Spectracide works. If not, I will buy the dust.All in all, this suit is perfect. I bagged it back up, put it on a shelf for the next hornets nest (if any) I need to get rid of.
