works well, still can get away hot during Summer. Bees can still Sting you Through jacket if they get pinned. Overall good quality and price.

Just started keeping bees last year so not knowing what I know now, I initially bought a full cloth suit. I assumed I'd eventually buy a vented one but went the less expensive route initially. The full suit worked well (preventing sticks) but my Lord it's hot. I dealt with it last year but this year I felt more comfortable to (1) invest in something well vented and (2) opt for less body coverage - i.e. only a jacket.Overall, I'm happy with the quality of the jacket. I bought an XL (I'm 6'1" at 200 lbs) and it fits well. The waist and wrist elastic is tight but doesn't restrict movement. The hood is decent. I do with the actual top of the hood (cap/elastic portion) was a bit "deeper" on my head. It almost feels like it's just resting on top of my head like a yamaka instead of being more secure like a baseball cap would feel. So occasionally, I have to pull the hood down on top of my head because it shifts. It's annoying.My biggest complaint are the zippers. They hold well once zipped but they are metal and the teeth are not "smooth". They can be tough to zip up. About every 3 inches it will catch. I almost always have to fiddle with them to get them to fully zip (both the front and the hood). They are far from smooth in operation. My other suit has high quality plastic zippers which are MUCH better. But still, once it's on, it works well and is comfortable.It still gets warm after working several hives in the sun but overall it's night and day above the full suit I have and I'm glad I purchased it. I almost always do my inspections now in shorts and this jacket. My bees are calm... for the most part. And I've had no stings with the jacket.Would be 5 start if the hood was a little more snug and the zippers were improved.

I'm 5'6" and 210 pounds. The XL fits great. Pretty long in the waist which I like. Waist has very strong elastic. The material is very breathable and the round hat keeps the veil away from my face. The zippers seem good. I've used it once so far, but I can't see how it would not perform.

Loved the overall design, extra pockets, great colour BUT the XL fit like L so slightly too small for me (6'1" 210lbs) My biggest concern was the very cheap zipper. Lots of zipping in a Bee suit so it Feels like the wrong place to save $$
