Michael Roark started beekeeping in a vented bee suit and if we're being 100% honest he might not be a beekeeper today if it weren't for that vented suit. Cotton bee suits get wet with sweat and stick to your body. Once that fabric clings to your body it provides little protection from stings.
Our vented suits are lightweight and designed with 3 layers of material. The outer and inner layers are made of a poly mesh. In between those two layers is a spongy material This material provides a gap that is just wider than a bee's stinger is long. Does this prevent all stings? Sadly it does not. However, it dramatically reduces the number of stingers that strike.
Our suits are lightweight, yet sturdy. That summer breeze you're often begging for goes right through them. What does that mean for you? It means a much cooler beekeeping experience. No sweety cotton suit sticking to you like glue and keeping the cool out!
