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 separation between the wearer and bees.
Designed by OZ Armour, this jacket is a practical choice for Australian beekeepers who prefer a separate top that can be worn with suitable trousers. It is suited to backyard hive owners, hobbyists and experienced apiarists carrying out inspections, frame handling and general colony management.
Durable Poly-Cotton Construction
The strong poly-cotton fabric provides a balance of durability and comfortable movement for regular work around the apiary. Triple-layer mesh sections allow air to circulate around the body, helping make the jacket more comfortable during warmer conditions and longer periods outdoors.
Reinforced twill-tape stitching and high stitch density support the garment through repeated movement, while reinforced pockets and knee areas provide additional durability in high-wear sections.
Fencing Veil for Clear Visibility
The detachable fencing veil provides a structured viewing area while helping keep the mesh away from the face, nose and glasses. Its high-visibility metallic Italian mesh offers a clear view when checking frames, inspecting brood or monitoring colony activity.
A patented hood insert helps maintain the depth of the veil, while the front-opening design makes it convenient to adjust glasses, take a drink or communicate without removing the jacket.
