Extra Strength Professional Quality Beekeeping Gloves
The OZ Armour Extra Strength Professional Quality Beekeeping Gloves are designed for beekeepers who need durable hand coverage for regular hive work. Made from genuine cowhide leather, these gloves combine a sturdy construction with soft leather and ventilated steel mesh to provide a practical balance of strength, comfort and airflow.
Designed by OZ Armour, these heavy-duty gloves are suited to Australian beekeepers who regularly handle frames, hive equipment and other tools around the apiary.
Heavy-Duty Cowhide for Everyday Hive Work
The extra-strength cowhide construction provides a durable working surface across the hands, making these gloves suitable for repeated gripping and handling. Double stitching and double leather patching reinforce areas that experience greater wear, helping the gloves stand up to regular use around hive boxes, frames and equipment.
The soft leather construction also helps maintain comfortable hand movement, allowing you to handle frames and tools with greater control during detailed hive work.
Steel Mesh for Added Ventilation
Strong steel mesh is incorporated into the gloves to encourage airflow around the hands. This ventilated design can help reduce heat build-up compared with gloves made entirely from solid leather, making them a practical option when working outdoors in warmer conditions.
The combination of cowhide leather and mesh gives beekeepers a useful alternative to heavier, fully enclosed handwear.
Comfortable Fit for Practical Beekeeping
These gloves are designed for adults and are available in sizes M through 4XL. The durable materials make them suitable for routine colony inspections, frame handling, feeding, honey harvesting and general apiary maintenance.
To help preserve the genuine leather, the gloves should not be machine washed. Clean them gently with a damp cloth when needed.
