USKEEPERS Beekeeping Suit Poly-cotton Ultra-Ventilated with 2 Veils & Gloves, SV XL - Breathable 280 GSM Protection

USKEEPERS Ultra-Ventilated Polycotton Beekeeping Suit is a lightweight, breathable full-body protective suit that includes two detachable veils and ventilated gloves for comfortable, all‑day hive work.

This professional-grade bee suit blends a 280 GSM polycotton weave with targeted ventilation panels so you stay cool without sacrificing sting protection. Designed for hobbyists and commercial apiarists alike, the suit ships with both a fencing-style veil and a round veil, cushioned knee pads, YKK brass zippers, and robust storage pockets—everything you need to inspect hives, transport frames, or manage colonies while minimizing bee contact.

How does the suit keep me cool during long hive inspections?

Ventilation is built into the suit where heat and sweat typically build up: chest, back, and arms. The polycotton fabric balances durability with breathability, and the veils provide airflow while keeping mesh off your face.

• 280 GSM 50/50 polycotton blend for breathability and protection
• Ultra-ventilation panels on chest, back and sleeves
• Round veil with 360° mesh for wide airflow and visibility
• Fencing veil with rigid insert keeping mesh away from skin

What protective features stop bees from getting inside?

The suit combines physical barriers with secure closures to limit bee access. Elasticized cuffs, ankles and waist form snug seals, while Velcro wrist straps and a covered front zipper add extra defense.

• Elastic waist, ankles and wrists to prevent gaps
• Velcro-secured wrist straps and veil zipper covers
• High-leg YKK brass zippers for easy entry without exposing skin
• Thick polycotton fabric and ventilation panels designed to keep bees away from the skin

Which components are included and how durable are they?

The kit arrives ready to use: two detachable veils, a pair of ventilated goatskin gloves, and a full protective suit with reinforced knees and pockets. High-quality YKK brass zippers and robust stitching increase longevity under frequent use.

• Two veils: a high-visibility fencing veil and a 360° round veil
• Goatskin gloves with extended ventilated cuffs included
• Cushioned knee pads and four deep, reinforced pockets
• Durable YKK antique brass zippers for front and leg openings

How should I choose the right size and care for the suit?

The suit is intended to be worn over regular clothes; if you’re between sizes pick the larger option for comfort and mobility. Routine care extends life: keep zippers closed when washing, remove veils and gloves before laundering, and air-dry to preserve fabric and mesh.

• Designed to fit over everyday clothing—check the provided size chart
• Choose the larger size when in doubt for movement and layering
• Detach veils and gloves before washing; use gentle cycle and air-dry
• Inspect zippers and seams periodically for long-term reliability
