Looking to add (yet another) jacket as I try out different styles and brands. Im in Florida so its hot 97% of the time, nice 2% of the time, and cold 1% of the time. Ive done a bunch of review searching but havent found the 'right' review for what I am wanting.
Veil and long sleeve shirt isnt really an option. I wear nitrile gloves as I am not confident/experienced enough to go bare skin so another jacket of a different veil style it is. My current is the Dadant ventilated V01251S. My goal would be lighter weight / cooler than that one with the fencing style hood. I have yet to get stung through it so I think its a little overboard.
What does everybody use in the in the nice 98 degree weather with 90% humidity down here?
If not a vented jacket I may go after a veil + long sleeve canvas / denim combo, single layer and lightweight. Ive seen some beekeepers around here with stuff like that but have never gotten any idea of where they have gotten stuff like that from.
