I purchased this item a few months back, and now that I'm opening it I notice stains resembling bee guts on and around the hands. I'm well past the return window, and I'm quite confused and perplexed. Everything else is wonderful! Just check your item immediately after arrival on this one. Not 100% satisfied.

Great value for money. Used a few times, including with an angry queenless hive and didn't get stung. Comfortable.

I have used this suit three times when checking my hives. every time I end up with one -3 bees in my hood with me. The velcro that fastens the hood in the front does not go to the top this allows room for sneaky bees to get in. I just added more velcro so it closes fully but it really should be made like that.Other than that I use it in Texas heat of 90-100 degrees and it keeps me as cool as possible when wearing a bee suit. I like the hood shape it is not constricting and allows for full mobility.

Smaller fit. Ordered 3X in other be suits and they fit just fine, this one I couldn’t even bend down. 3X is more like a 2X. The zipper is not put in correctly so the zippers come off if it’s undone all the way

This suit is perfect for honey bees. It’s light weight and breathable. I’m 5,7” and I ordered a large. It fits well. The inseam is irritating when wearing short shorts but not to the point it’s unwearable. And I have very thick hair (dreads to my butt). And my hair fits inside the hood. Great suite and well worth the money. Wish it came with gloves though.

I am a bee keeper and I have a $250+ suit. This was to be a loaner suit. I bought it and one of the people I loaned it to immediately bought it from me. It will not replace my main suit. I personally will buy a second one to use myself because it weighs a third of my main suit. It is cool, fits well and light weight. I am a bit concerned about longevity but for the price that is not an issue. I certainly do recommend it.

Excellent suit. Best one I’ve bought so far. Very light weight and allows breezes to flow through. So pleased with suit I bought one for wife. Suit is full piece and not too transparent. In my personal apiary at my house I just wear boxer shorts and T-shirt under suit to beat this Florida heat. Suit is not sting proof. Have to be at exact angle for stinger to get through material but diligent bee can get your attention. Only stung twice last year wearing suit. Most of time I have not been stung and feel comfortable wearing suit. Suit is a little short in leg length. If you have long legs order next size up. It’s a great suit. I recommend it.

Overall I'm very pleased and recommend the suit. It is well ventilated but still protects against stings. If I could change anything, I would increase the zipper length on the legs to accommodate large boots. The zippers/pulls are easy to use and it's straightforward to get into and out of the suit.

My problem has not been bees or wasps, but mosquitos. We have a types in Nebraska, and last year I went through a lot of spray and also took a few more showers than usual after gardening. I wanted to find a more ethical/resourceful way of protecting myself from mosquitos and came upon this suit.In my opinion, it works better than spray. Occasionally with the larger mosquitos or while I was bending down and stretching and the material was snug against me I have gotten a bite or two. But, last week, I went out picking wild fruit in a shady draw and wore it and I was covered in mosquitos, after an hour I only had two bites. In my opinion, that was astounding!It is cool and airy, you can feel the breeze through it, I was afraid it would be hot but isn't bad at all. Plan on ordering a size bigger than you ordinarily wear, the "puff" it surrounds you with is really what saves you. I usually where size small shirts so I bought a medium and it is comfortable and works great.I would definitely recommend this! Really enjoying it and has kept me from having to spend more time and money on bug sprays.

This is a good fitting suit but it is very uncomfortable if you where shot sleeves and shorts under it. The seems are very scratchy. I would not purchase this item again. I bought it to be cooler than the traditional cotton suit.

The plastic zippers are great and very smooth. The fit is good but order up a size. I’m 5’2” and medium fits perfectly. You need to wear a ball cap under the hood. Lightweight but keeps stingers out. Good product
