I've recommended Humble Bee products to so many beekeepers I've lost count. Even my mentor asked about my ventilated jacket. I usually wear a round black veil with hat, with a long-sleeved white t-shirt. The round design keeps the veil away from my face, has a 360-degree view, and the wide brim add sun protection. I get all my wearable gear from these guys - the aerated jacket is awesome in the summer heat. A bit pricey but it's an investment and the quality is second-to-none.

Really delighted with this jacket. Light and comfortable, the hat fits very well, the zips are strong, and well made. Have been looking at the 320 since having my own bee hive this spring but bought a basic full suit instead. I was unsure if the extra small would fit as I’m a ladies size 12 but it fits beautifully and is so much easier to get in and out of . Great bee jacket, good price and delighted thank you.

Ich habe eine atmungsaktive und leichte Imkerjacke gesucht und mit Humble Bee 320 gefunden.Angenehm zu tragen, es gehen keine Stiche durch, und im Sommer ist es wirklich super wenn etwas Luft durch die Jacke geht.Kann dies nur weiterempfehlen!

Entspricht leider nicht der Größenangabe. Ansonsten gut.

I bought two of these: one for my husband and one for my father. They both love them! It has made a huge difference in keeping them cool during hot midwestern summers. The hat brim is a great feature that keeps the veil away from your face, and neither have been stung through the suit. The overlapping zippers take some getting used to but are great at keeping the bees out. Highly recommend!

Ive used this several times and like the visibility and protection from my critters. It reminds me of my bug suit used for hunting in the Florida swamps. Very well made.

Ive opened the suite to find a small layer of fine mesh over a larger layer and a another small layer next to the skin. brass zippers. triple layer zippers come together at the neck each over lapping the other with a velcro flap covering the zippers, tight elastic waistband and cuffs the hat fits well and the facial mesh may need some tending to keep away from the face and stings! I'm eager to add to this after using it in the field.

Veil is too small for a human head, would work great if you liked getting stung in the ears. Returned

My son is a beekeeper in Hawaii and the traditional suit is very hot. This jacket keeps him so cool allowing the breeze to filter through. It also has great protection against stings which I questioned when I first saw the material. The construction is top grade! I haven't washed it yet and I'm hoping that it washes well and keeps it shape.

L'ho acquistata e devo dire che funziona perfettamente ma l'unica pecca è che non si può lavare, spero di poterla lavare a freddo sennò diventerà un grande problema.

Dandy jacket. Breezy. Comfy. I wear this even when I work an area that has a high volume of bees. We have a temporary set up for sales, and we sometimes have several hundred hives on a couple of acres. No stings. Women need a rig like this. If you are in coveralls with a bee veil tied on over it all and your pant ankles strapped to your boots, you are never going to get out of it in time to take a bladder break.
