420 Ultravent Beekeeping Suit with Round Veil

Comfortable, but not convenient for female. Easy to clean. View angle is good enough Ventilation is not bad

The price was great, so that was the selling point for me. I’m 5’4” and 150lbs, usually a size 10/12 in pants and a M/L in tops and this fits. It’s comfortable, but a tad snug. I like the round brim hat vs the fencing style hat. It does, however, have an extremely long crotch. I’ve been in the hives multiple times and spent a whole day extracting honey and didn’t get stung once, so I’d say it does it’s job.

Great ventilation, seals well.

Until the netting around the head is increased, this suit is a do not buy. I read one of the reviews and it said the netting in front touched the which was stung. The first time I wore it, I got stung on the nose. Then when I reacted away from the sting, my head hit the back of the netting and I got stung 3-4 times on the back of the head. When I reacted after that, the bees went crazy and I was strung on both arms through my gloves and the suit, one arm at least three times, and once on my side. With bees that crazy and defensive, maybe the arms and the side are understandable and were not hard stings. But do not buy until the company says it has expanded the netting around the head.

The suit is really, really small ( I'm only 5'3" and the suit is super tight from the crotch to the shoulders) and the veil touches my face ( I will get stung for sure!). The fabric of the suit feels sturdy and well made with good zippers. But, the netting on the veil is thin and flimsy. I purchased a larger one from them about 2 years ago and the veil material is much sturdier! Unfortunately, I will be returning this to get a bigger size. But, I'll look for a different brand as I don't like the veil.

Good quality suit, but Leah is a little close to your face even with getting a size too big. Scared I may get stung in the face due to it being too close to my face.

The size runs small

The material is light weight, but, for lack of a better explanation, it is like cheesecloth. I don't see how the suit will prevent stingers from penetration. I have been using heavy duty twill suits. Although they are very hot in 85 degree + weather, I have never had a stinger penetrate the suit. Some reviews said they have used the suit and have never been stung. I am not sure how that could happen. If it is true, great. But, we remove hornet & yellow jacket hives, set bee hives back on stands that have turned over at apiaries, and treat carpenter bees. I'm not stepping up to the plate to try it. Good luck.

Toller Anzug!

Hatte 2 Anzüge bestellt. Leider hatte beide Mängel: 1.) Gummiband am Kopf zu eng, Gummizug am linken Arm zu eng und auch enger als am rechten Handgelenk, Kunststoffgewebe nicht reinweiß, Tagetasche zu klein. 2.) Zu groß (nicht der Größe entsprechend) und Loch in der Brusttasche, Kunststoffgewebe nicht reinweiß. Beide retourniert.
