ANDES 3-Layer Ventilated Bee Suit with 2 Veils & Goatskin Gloves, XL — Breathable Mesh, Reinforced Zippers

ANDES 3-layer ventilated bee suit is a full-coverage, breathable protective suit that pairs two detachable veils and goatskin-reinforced gloves for comfortable, sting-resistant hive work.

Built for warm-weather apiary work, this suit uses three layers of poly-cotton mesh to balance airflow with reliable barrier protection. Solid brass zippers, reinforced stitching and machine-washable fabric make the ANDES suit a practical choice for routine inspections, honey harvesting and extended time near colonies.

How does the mesh keep me cool while protecting against stings?

The suit’s 3-layer poly-cotton mesh lets air pass through while maintaining a physical barrier between you and the bees. Moisture wicks away faster than in solid materials, reducing heat buildup so you can work longer without overheating.

• Three-layer ventilated poly-cotton mesh for airflow
• Rapid sweat-wicking to reduce internal humidity
• Multi-layer barrier prevents direct bee contact

What convenience features help during inspections and breaks?

Two detachable hoods—the round veil and a fencing-style veil—let you tailor visibility and access. The fencing veil includes a zippered facial opening so you can drink or answer a phone without fully removing the hood, keeping protection intact between tasks.

• Round and fencing veils included for visibility options
• Zippered facial opening on the fencing veil for quick access
• Detachable hoods for easy cleaning and storage

Are the closures and seams secure enough to keep bees out?

Heavy-duty brass zippers at the front, veil and leg openings create tight, wear-resistant seals that minimize gaps. Reinforced stitching and tear-resistant fabric add durability so the suit maintains its protective integrity over time.

• Solid brass zippers for smooth, durable closure
• Reinforced seams and tear-resistant poly-cotton fabric
• Leg and sleeve closures designed to form gap-free seals

What comes in the kit and how is dexterity preserved?

The complete kit includes the 3-layer suit, two detachable veils and a pair of 3-layer mesh gloves with goatskin reinforcement. The gloves are designed to protect while preserving finger movement for hive tools and gentle frame handling.

• One 3-layer ventilated suit (machine washable main suit)
• Two detachable veils: round hood and fencing-style hood
• One pair of goatskin-reinforced 3-layer mesh gloves for dexterity
