I read the traffic on bee suits but did not have time to respond. I really like the rip-stop nylon suits. They are light weight and have no surprise openings like most cotton suits (pocket openings). I wear a tee shirt underneath and even though the thin nylon suit sticks to your skin it is extremely rare to be stung through the suit. The only problem is veils tend to slide up over the slick collar and expose your neck. This can be fixed by sewing a stip of cotton cloth to the back side of the collar for the veil to get a purchase on. Walter Kelley and Brushy Mnt. both sell nylon coveralls. I move a lot of bees to cucumber pollination in all sorts of weather and get exposed to a lot of angry bees. Nylon suits are the best in my book.
