Poly Cotton Beekeeping Jacket with Fencing Veil
The OZ Armour Poly Cotton Beekeeping Jacket with Fencing Veil is designed for beekeepers who want durable upper-body coverage with practical ventilation for everyday hive work. Its heavy-duty poly-cotton construction is combined with triple-layer mesh to encourage airflow while maintaining a physical barrier between the wearer and bees.
Designed by OZ Armour, this jacket is a practical option for Australian beekeepers who prefer a separate top that can be paired with suitable trousers. It works well for backyard hive owners, hobbyists and experienced apiarists carrying out inspections, frame handling and routine colony management.
Heavy-Duty Fabric with Added Ventilation
The poly-cotton construction provides a balance of durability, comfort and flexibility for regular work around the apiary. Triple-layer mesh sections allow air to circulate around the upper body, helping make the jacket more comfortable during warmer conditions and extended hive inspections.
Reinforced twill-tape stitching and a high stitch-per-inch construction add strength to areas that experience repeated movement and wear. Reinforced pockets and knee areas provide additional durability when working around hive boxes and equipment.
Fencing Veil for Clear Visibility
The structured fencing veil is designed to maintain space between the viewing mesh and your face, including around the nose and glasses. The patented hood insert helps keep the veil deep and properly positioned while you work.
Strong metallic Italian mesh provides a clear viewing area when inspecting brood, checking frames or locating the queen. The fencing hood opens from the front, making it easier to adjust glasses, have a drink or communicate without removing the jacket.
The overlapping neck zipper and additional front zipper flap help cover the main openings between the jacket and hood.
