The size of this might be difficult to determine if it fits someone who is 6'5" and The size of the statue is It will be 45 inches from the brim of the hat to the elastic waistband , 29 inches from the shoulder to the elastic elbow sleeve, and 30 inches from the hood zipper to the elastic waistband. You have to keep all measurements in mind. If you have any further questions about shoulders, waists, etc., please contact us. We are grateful for your kind words!
Carpenter Bees are far too small to fit in the suit produced by the manufacturer. Although, I think it would be fine if you were to wear it. If you needed to protect yourself
There is a veil attached to the jacket that cannot be removed. During the day, it can be laid back when not working bees, and can be unzipped from the front. Clearly, this suit is well made and of high quality.
I'm sure it would work just about any bee, but you still need gloves. Isn't good protection from honey bees therefore it won't work for honey bees.

It was the first smock I used. It is imperative that you avoid touching the screen/mesh while using this device as some of the reviewers pointed out. While the hat brim is fairly sturdy and does a good job of keeping the mesh in place, I did get sidetracked while working the hive, and the mesh brushed As far as size was concerned, it Five-seven inches high and 200 pounds, I'm a woman with a child. This shirt fits me in an XL, so I bought it in that size. I like the way it fits. A little baggy is just what I wanted. There was stinging material in the material It is evidence. It is very convenient to have a pocket on the front. In the end, I got stung five or six times on my belly because I had an aggressive hive and it eventually found its way up under the elastic band. As a result, I purchased a full suit to work the hive. I currently use this smock for quick exits from the hive A visitor's clothing should not be kept at a distance from intrusive inspections.
Whenever I'm in the park I always wear a suit and gloves to prevent getting stung. It seems that our hive has generally been quite passive, but dropping a frame made them quite unhappy the other day. My height (6' 5") made the suit a little tight, but I still felt comfortable. It is fully netted on the hat. Although the netting was good for air flow, it lay against the back of my neck due to the fit. It was just a matter of waiting for a bee to get to that part (back there) and to Added a towel to cover the back of my neck inside my suit to resolve that problem. This is a good value for the price of the book. Will very likely purchase another one in the future.
Having a good size and a lot of room to move around The weight is very light. The fabric of this sweatshirt is lightweight but stiff, so it feels like wearing an oversized sweatshirt but is made of lightweight An individual weighing between 250 and 300 pounds should be able to put it on. A zipper allows the hood to be opened, but it cannot be completely taken off. At the bottom and on the cuffs, there is elastic to keep anything that is not trying too hard to get in from the bottom. This is not a clothing that you can wear every day -- it's a clothing you can wear a few times a season for a few hours. You should be able to get several years out of your grill if you take care and do not abuse it. The five stars are based on the value it provides based on the price I paid and I consider it to be.
Before purchasing this product, it is a good idea to read several reviews. The fact that I live in the desert was a factor for me in getting something that wouldn't be too hot in the summer and was still roomy enough for a jacket underneath. My height is 5'9" and my weight is 225 pounds, with most of my weight being around my hips, butts, A medium would be appropriate for the shirt, a large would be for an overshirt, so I ordered the XL in order to have plenty of space without tugging or pulling on the shirt. It is long enough so that I can pull the sleeves up over the tops of my gloves (wrist length) and they will not pull up when There is a good amount of length in the overall design that pulls down low so that there is no pulling up and showing skin. There is the slightest amount of looseness in the hat part. It flops off my head when I bend over, and I have to make sure the hat is adjusted each time. It's almost like everything was increased in size. As a whole, it's a good item. It does what you want, it protects thoroughly, and it contains a handy pocket, but when it's pulled tight, which is how it appears on me, it's not that large. On the whole, I am very happy with the result.
You will not be able to wear this suit if you are a commercial beekeeper. As far as I can tell, it is thin and isn't extremely durable. You shouldn't expect it to hold up to everyday The backyard bees, however, will benefit from it once a week when they go into their hives. The suit can be used as a backup. For the occasions when you want to show someone your hive(s), this is the perfect suit. I recommend keeping it inside your car with your nuc so you can catch swarms on the way. It's my wife who does the bulk of the beekeeping chores, so I did not want to spend $100+ on a second suit for myself. I could not believe how much I saved with this. Each of the kids is getting two more for Christmas. The weight I weigh is 230 pounds and I'm 6'2". I wanted XL loose on me, so he did that.
Other aspects of the review have also been mentioned. Despite this suit being able to keep aggressive bees at bay, it is not protective enough. Upon placing this suit on for the first time, I got stung by four bees. My head was stung two times. The bee went through the thin material and got stung through my face. One was on the neck and the other was on the shoulder. The neck area of the suit does not provide enough safety room, which is a design flaw. Having mesh in the neck area makes it much easier for the insect to sting. You can see where the bee sting left a mark on my neck in the picture. As a beekeeper, you will get stings as you go about your work. It's nothing to worry about. Although this suit isn't recommended, I still can't recommend it. It is not a good idea to have extractor protection around the next and an extra hat inside. Therefore, mesh in the neck does nothing to allow air flow? In addition to this suit, I have tried other bee suits on Amazon with much better results. Even the cheapest suit works better. Avoid this suit at all costs.
Oh my gosh! At the chain farm store nearest me, these sell for $50 each. As a matter of habit, I usually buy my bee stuff from a local farm co-op I'm not sure if it was an op or beethinking, but my hood went bad during a month when money was tight. Considering the price, I sort of assumed it would be a temporary solution, but I was very pleasantly surprised with the quality. There is a zip at the top that allows the hood to be removed I like the sturdy mesh and the fact that I can see through it easily I am impressed with the sizing! I am very pleased with the result. stars, as I was far exceeded by what I expected.
Putting it on was easy it fits just I like how light it is and how it's As I said, I did not use the zipper and do not see why I would ever need it. Lightweight yet strong enough to prevent stinging, the fabric appears to be light. This bee suit appeared to largely ignore me when I was wearing it. I had never been using a bee suit before. I usually wore nothing or glasses and a hoodie, but this was far So far, I've only used it one time, but so far, I'm very pleased with it. This is a good value for the money.
