FeatherLite Ventilated Beekeeper Jacket - Fencing Veil
If you've worked bees in the summer before, you know how hot it can get inside a bee suit!
Our quality ventilated bee jackets are made of a comfortable, lightweight, single-layer material that provides the perfect blend of comfort and robust protection from stings.
I promise you, you'll LOVE this jacket!
Other features:
- Top quality, smooth operating YKK brand zippers
- The front panel of the fencing veil zips open to allow a quick drink or snack without the need to remove the entire veil
- Elastic at the waist and wrists, as well as elastic thumb loops
- A hook on the veil makes it easy to hang in storage
For sizing, these tend to be on the larger side. We recommend that you order one size smaller than your normal sweatshirt size.

They changed the suite and instead of a flap that covers the zippers there is now only a small piece of velcro inside the hood that closes the opening created by the zippers not overlapping. Other than the cheap design there the suite is very breathable and definitely order one size smaller than normal.
A bee-utiful outfit for our tiny tenders of the hive! 🐝

Great bee jacket.
Excellant jacket...super comfortable,,,very cool and protective.
One suggestion tho...sew 2 velcro flaps on the back of the veil to make it adjustable...I'd pay extra for that feature. It tends to flop forward a bit too much and blocks your line of sight. Otherwise all good!
I was skeptical about the size recommendation but I decided to go with it and it's definitely accurate. I usually wear an XL in tees and hoodies, so I got a large per the description and I definitely have plenty of room. I really like how tight the waist is, it doesn't move much at all when you're working in the yard. I love how the main zipper goes up past the vail, that 3 point zipper connection always makes me paranoid on my old suit. The pocket placement is nice and very useful, and the vail is the best I've used so far. Also something I noticed was I actually felt the breeze through the jacket while I was working the bees, when I took it off (after 4 hours in the sun at 75°F) my shirt underneath wasn't drenched in sweat like it usually is, so that's great. And the price is perfect, I think competitors really overprice their jackets. These things are worth every penny for sure.
Thank you sir!
