Humble Bee 430 Ventilated Beekeeping Suit with Round Veil
0
The 430 is the ventilated suit in the Humble Bee line, sold with a round brim veil that keeps mesh a long way from the face. Three layer construction, YKK brass zippers, elastic thumb and ankle straps, and pockets sized for a hive tool and a phone. Besides the normal grid there is a big and tall cut, which is hard to find in bee clothing.
Built for keepers who inspect often and hate sweating through a cotton suit. The round veil gives good clearance but catches wind and low branches, so tight spaces suit the fencing version better. Price is in the upper half of the market. Zip the two collar sliders together at the front, that is where beginners leave a gap.
