Humble Bee
Humble Bee is a beekeeping apparel brand that keeps its range deliberately narrow and numbers it like a parts catalogue: the 410 polycotton suit, the 420 aero and ultravent models, the 430 ventilated suit, plus matching jackets, smocks and gloves. The core fabric is a medium weight 280 gsm blend of 50 percent cotton and 50 percent synthetic, finished with brass zippers, double stitched pockets, elastic waist, wrist and ankle closures, thumb and foot holds, and a canvas carrying case. The company states that it gives 10 percent of net profits to organisations supporting local beekeeping and bee conservation.
Suits are sold by height range rather than by generic S to XXL alone, which helps buyers who fall between sizes. Anyone after hives, frames or extraction equipment needs a second supplier, since this brand covers clothing only.
