Humble Bee410 Polycotton Beekeeping Suit with Round Veil

Fine suit
The zippers are strong and good quality. The material feels cheaper, but I haven't had any stings yet so I guess it's working. I gave this suit a 4/5 for "value for money" because I think you'd be better off to "buy once; cry once," getting a 3-layer ventilated suit. They appear to have better protection and are way more breathable.

Order larger than normal.
Larger by 2 sizes fits well. No stings from the few nest I removed. Good material. Zippers are great quality.

This is the best quality suit I have ever owned
Well designed, from the thumb straps to hold the sleeves inside your gloves to the well placed pockets, to the Velcro patch/cover where the zippers end to keep out determined bees. This is the best quality suit I have ever owned. I had a particular aggressive hive I had worked with and they found all the openings in my last outfit and managed to have me stop working them due to the amount of bees getting past my equipment and stinging me. I bought this suit to prevent that. This suit is almost bullet proof. I was a little nervous working for the first time in this suit with that particularly aggressive hive, but after the first 10 min I was completely relaxed because no bees were getting through. The quality of the materials is top notch, the sewing/stitching is equally top notch. I'm 6' 3" tall and 230 lbs and the XXXL fits perfect with blue jeans and a long sleeved shirt underneath. The suit comes in a cloth Humble Bee zippered storage bag, nice added touch. I would recommend this suit to anyone who would like to enjoy their bees and not be concerned about getting a dozen aggressive and determined bees inside your vail. This is a commercial grade quality suit. I will buy again from this company, but that will not be for a while due to the high quality of materials and craftsmanship they use. This suit is going to last a while. Thank you Humble Bee for the quality product you make, the attention to detail is evident in your product.

Doesn't come with Bee gloves
This Bee Suit seems well thought out and I was able to use a weed Wacker around and in-between, about 10 hives of bees without getting stung. Yes, I did get the suit dirty, however that should have minimal to no impact on usability unless you physically damage the suit. With the additional purchase of bee gloves and water boots even the ones that took an interest in flying around my head could not get to me. Please note however, if the mesh is in contact with your skin in the head area of the suit that means bees can come into contact and inevitable sting you so use some degree of caution. The round veil is actually detachable move both zippers to the front facing left or rear facing right to then slowly lift off the veil. This will then give you the ability to machine wash the suit and hand wash the veil after each use or as necessary. Remember this item does not come with gloves to adequate bee gloves are necessary unless your ok with a few hand stings and pepper shoe attire to protect your feet. I have moved away from the hive with a bee stuck to the side of the suit so it may also be possible to get stung through it however the aggressive honey bees I deal with have not stung me as of yet with the bee suite, gloves and water boots.

Good quality and attention to detail like large brass zippers.
Good quality and attention to detail like large brass zippers. Do order one size up. I am 6'1 and 185pounds and an XL is a very good fit. Will it be hot if the temperatures are hot? Yes, but still manageable. Maybe the only thing I do not care for: the veil is a bit more difficult to see through than some veils. Small thing, though.

Humble Bee produces a quality product!
This is a quality product! It is comfortable to wear & easy to slip Into. I do wish the hat was larger & the veil was a bit sturdier. Prior to owning this suit, I have been stung EVERY time I went to the apiary. This suit is designed to protect you, & I haven’t been stung once since wearing it. Humble Bee Stands by its product. When I accidentally duplicated my order & then missed the return date deadline, Humble Bee accepted my return. Because of their good will, I will always buy Humble Bee products.

Buy from Humble Bee
Humble Bee (HB) was a wonderful company to deal with. My HB bee suit less than a year old had a zipper problem, so I called HB hoping to get a new zipper, but knowing it would be difficult to sew it in right. Rather than just a new zipper, HB sent an entire new suit. Aubrey from HB who communicated with me via email sent extremely prompt responses that were easy to understand, cheerful, and helpful. She answered all my questions to the fullest. HB's bee suits have been resized from a year ago and are now bigger and fit great. The new suit has metal zippers with smaller teeth that seem much better than the previous plastic teeth. There is a loop on the back of the suit so that it can be hung- great new feature! The replacement bee suit arrived 4 days before the promised date. Also, HB donates 10% of their earnings to charity- a nice perk in addition to all of the above. I have no question who I will deal with next time we need clothing for our apiary. Thank you Aubrey and Humble Bee!!
