A beekeeper coverall or just a -jacket?

Every beekeeper naturally wants to be well protected at work. On the one hand to prevent possible bee stings and on the other hand to protect one's own clothing from, among other things. bijenwas, propolis en/of honing. Good protection against bee stings occurs when bee clothing does not pinch anywhere and you can wear another layer of your own clothing underneath. If the fabric is tight on the skin, it is possible for a bee to sting through it. If a bee suit is loose around the body, with another layer of clothing underneath, this is almost impossible. However, bees do like to crawl up from the legs and thus consciously and unconsciously try to crawl into the beekeeper's clothing. Overalls have fewer openings and therefore offer the best protection in combination with boots, for example. If you have more experience then a jacket or hood is very practical for short jobs in the bees.

How do I choose the right size?

It is better to buy a beekeeper jacket a little too big than a little too tight. In spring, fall and winter, it is nice to be able to wear a thicker fleece underneath without having your movements hindered by clothes that are too tight. Having doubts about a size to choose? Then feel free to contact us to come to the right size choice, as we have the right size of beekeeper clothing for sale for everyone! Check out our online flyer with maattabel.

A round or English hood?

As a beekeeper, choosing between a round and English hood is sometimes difficult, as the hoods both have different advantages. An English (hooded) model has the advantage that the hood takes up less space so you are less likely to get caught in a tree or bush with it. Of this English hood, the back is fabric. In addition, an English hood allows you to take a closer look at a window with brood/eggs. The disadvantage of an English hood is that in wind, the mesh can blow against the nose more quickly. With a round cap, the advantage is that it provides excellent protection from the sun and is also perceived as slightly more airy. Furthermore, a round cap has two rings that ensure that the mesh stays further away from the face. A round or English hood? Each beekeeper makes his personal consideration and choice.

What color beekeeping clothing is best?

Much is said about beekeeping clothing and how bees respond to it. Which colors are really best is not entirely clear. Traditionally, white is worn by beekeepers in the Netherlands. Increasingly, you also see khaki beekeeper suits. The advantage of khaki beekeeper clothing is that it looks less likely to get dirty and blends in more with nature. Each country has its own favorite color. For example, bright yellow is very popular in Italy. Which color you choose doesn't matter. The protection is generally the same. So every beekeeper can make their own choice.
