One last thing: These gloves are short, reaching just to the wrist. If the bees are perturbed, you'll get stung along the edge.
Ordinary bee suits have elastic at the cuff of each sleeve. If you cut one inch or so of the stitching on the fold that encloses the elastic, directly in line with your thumb, to reveal about an inch of that elastic, you can loop the elastic down over your thumb.
That holds the cuff comfortably against the back and front of your hand and and prevents bees from reaching bare skin.
Simple, and 100% effective!
