VENTILATED BEEKEEPING JACKETS
When you need the best on the market for beekeeping protection, Guardian Bee Apparel has your back. Created by beekeepers for beekeepers—our jackets are ideal for beekeepers who prefer the convenience and freedom of a jacket over a suit.
Our beekeeping jackets are ideal for quick inspections where a suit would be too cumbersome, but that’s not the only use that has people coming back for more. Many beekeepers love the ease of use of a simple-to-throw-on jacket, and many are happy to make it their go-to apparel. Our beekeeping jackets come in adult sizes XS to 5XL.

Features
We bring innovation to beekeeping apparel. All our jackets come with the standard Guardian Bee Apparel features that make our suits so beloved. These include:
- Ventilated, 3-Layer Mesh: Sting-resistant yet breathable! Beat the heat without risking the pain of bee stings.
- Metal YKK Zippers: High-quality metal zippers that are reliable and won’t snap from wear and tear!
- Zee Space: Say goodbye to mesh catching in your zipper with our “zee-space” feature that adds space and stability between the mesh and your zipper.
- Tripple Zipper System: No more fighting with zippers to access your shirt pockets! The triple zipper system makes it quick and easy to unzip to reach into the interior pocket, so that struggle will be a thing of the past.
- Heavy-Duty Elastic: Heavy-duty elastic at the wrist and waist keeps your jacket in place and nosey bees out!
- Plethora of Pockets: Four easy-to-reach sleeves and upper chest pockets reinforced to protect from blowouts make storing your beekeeping tools a breeze!
Veils in Three Different Styles
As with our suits and pullovers, our jackets come in our three veil styles to suit all kinds of beekeepers. These veil styles can be easily removed for cleaning or replacement in the event you wish to try a different veil style but don’t want to buy a completely different suit.
Easy Access Beekeeping Veil: A large, oversized veil that offers nervous newbies a wide berth from their bees. The heavy front screen, which opens up for easy access to your face, offers you approximately 5 inches from your nose and the front screen.
Pro-Fit Beekeeping Veil: A standard-size fencing veil with our original front access design! This veil’s low profile allows it to naturally sit upright to allow you to get up close to your bees—the favorite of experienced beekeepers.
Round Beekeeping Veil: Perfect for beekeepers who love the classic style, this round veil offers a 360-degree view and is made of ventilated triple-mesh material that keeps you cool and protected! The elastic band keeps the veil secure on your head, while the right and left zippers offer easy access to your face.
Why Should You Choose a Jacket?
While a beekeeping suit might be the standard image for beekeeping apparel, a jacket is an excellent addition to any beekeeper’s closet! Jackets are not only quicker to put on and take off compared to suits, but they’re often far less bulky than a practical suit. Furthermore, when it’s time to store your apparel, you’ll find a jacket much more manageable to hang up!
