Jacket With Hood
Description
Vented Jacket with Zip-On Veil
This ventilated bee jacket is designed for working bees in hot weather conditions.
A rubberized netting layer is sandwiched between two layers of woven mesh to provide sting protection while allowing steady airflow. The open net design helps reduce heat buildup during long inspections in warm climates.
The jacket is cut generously for movement and includes a zip-on fencing-style veil. The veil is self-supporting and collapsible for easy on and off.
Two chest pockets (one zippered) and two hive tool pockets provide practical storage while working. Heavy-duty two-way zippers at the neck and chest allow for straightforward entry and removal.
Elastic wrists with thumb holds and an elastic waist help maintain a close fit.
Tip: Wearing a baseball cap underneath helps keep the veil away from your face.
Local pick up only. No shipping.
