    I absolutely love the Comfort Pro jacket with the air mesh material paired with the fencing veil.

    I don't know where you are located, but here in Texas, where it's actually hot in the summer, the 3-layer provides a LOT more air flow than the single layer. I suspect it's because the single layer is thicker, which crowds out the air openings. The 3 layer is also MUCH better at sting prevention (it's as close to "sting proof" as a suit can be).

    Ty for videos like this! I am someone terrified of bees (it’s an irrational fear) but this last year I got super into houseplants and gardening. Ironically that got me to get outside more than anything else, because I have planted things bees just don’t like. However! When we get our own house eventually I want to have a pollinator garden….. all the way at the back of the yard! LOL. And I will wear bee protection to tend it! ❤ (And partake in some weed before tending it… I’ve noticed even when a wasp or bee does whizz by when I am doing plant chores if I am blazed I don’t get nearly as scared..!).

    Maybe a link to look at Air-Mesh Jackets? I find 3 layer but no Air-
    Mesh. I've already ordered a vented Guardian but I am looking for a standby Jacket for property owner. I'm a NewBee and just gearing up.

      Hello, unfortunately bee suits are specifically designed for bees, other stinging insects like hornets have a much longer stinger so the suit would probably help, but it would not prevent the hornets stingers from reaching your skin like it does the much shorter honey bee stinger, sorry. Thanks

    Goodday reader. I am more proun to the airmesh material but, the longevity of this material can be problematic.
    With normal use,washing and caring to the best of my ability, how long will it be still useable . Is the longevity of the 3 layer
    so much better as the people say? The fencing veil, how can I accommodate my headlight (thumb size) Perhaps
    a MAGA cap under the veil attached to my headlight? Cobus🐳
