Heavy-Duty Poly Cotton Construction

The jacket is made from heavy-duty poly-cotton fabric, providing a durable outer layer designed for regular beekeeping use. The breathable structure helps reduce heat buildup while you're working around the hive.

This combination makes the jacket suitable for routine inspections, hive maintenance and general apiary work.

Choice of Veil Style

The jacket comes with a choice of Fencing/Sherrif or Round Hat veil, allowing you to select the style that suits your preferred way of working.

The fencing veil provides a spacious viewing area, while the round hat option offers a traditional style of head and face protection.

Spacious Fit for Layering

A roomy fit gives you freedom of movement while working with frames and hive equipment. It also leaves space to wear additional clothing underneath when temperatures are cooler.

This makes the jacket practical across different seasons and working conditions.

Secure Closure System

The jacket uses Velcro and zipper closures to help secure the protective clothing around the body. Properly closing these sections helps minimise openings where bees could enter.

The secure closure system also makes the jacket straightforward to put on and remove.

Elasticated Waist and Wrists

The jacket features elasticated waist and wrist sections to create a closer fit around the body. These areas help reduce unwanted gaps while allowing comfortable movement during hive inspections.

Zipped Ankles

Zipped ankle sections make the jacket easier to put on and remove while helping provide a secure fit around the lower body.

This is particularly useful when getting changed before or after working around the apiary.

Multiple Storage Pockets

Multiple pockets provide convenient storage for essential beekeeping tools and small accessories. Keeping frequently used items close at hand can make hive inspections more efficient.

The pockets are positioned for practical access while working.

Detachable Hooped Fencing Veil

The fencing veil is detachable and hooped, creating structure that keeps the mesh away from your face. This provides a more comfortable viewing area while inspecting frames.

The structured veil can also be particularly useful for beekeepers who wear glasses.

Unisex Design

The jacket features a unisex design, making it suitable for both male and female beekeepers. The roomy construction also provides flexibility for different body shapes and layering requirements.

Machine Washable

The jacket is machine washable, making routine cleaning easier after hive inspections. Regular cleaning is especially useful when the jacket is used frequently throughout the beekeeping season.

Designed in Australia, Made in Pakistan

The OZ APIARIST Heavy Duty Poly Cotton Beekeeping Jacket is designed in Australia and made in Pakistan, combining the OZ Armour design with durable protective construction.

Optional Beekeeping Gloves

Optional beekeeping gloves can be selected with the jacket. Available sizes range from XS through 4XL, allowing you to build a more complete protective setup.
