Women beekeepers deserve gear that fits their idea of what protective clothing should look like, not just a scaled-down version of the men's suit. The Mellifera Pink 3 Layer Super Cool Mesh Beekeeping Pants pair the same durable outer mesh, ventilated air-gap layer, and soft inner mesh as our white and khaki pants, finished in a soft pink that's become one of our most popular choices among women in the apiary. The cut is unisex and true to size, so it's built to actually fit, not just to look the part.
Wash cold on a gentle cycle without bleach, and air dry away from heat. Skipping bleach keeps the pink from fading and going patchy. Wash regularly in season since sting pheromones in fabric can agitate bees.
Mellifera Protective Clothing designs beekeeping suits, jackets, and pants built for real apiary work and trusted by beekeepers across the USA. Most new, unopened items can be returned within 30 days of delivery for a full refund. This pink pair is built to the exact same 3 layer spec as our white and khaki pants, only the color changes.
Prefer a different color? The same pants are available in White and Khaki. Complete your kit with our Mesh Beekeeping Jacket, or get both together in our Jacket & Pants Set.
The cut is unisex, the same fit and size range as our white and khaki pants, so sizing runs true to your normal measurements rather than a separate women's pattern. Pink is simply the color most requested by women beekeepers, not a different fit.
No. Pink sits in the same light, low-contrast range as white, so colonies stay just as calm around it. Choose the color you actually enjoy wearing, it won't change how your bees behave.
Yes, if you want full-body coverage. A jacket alone leaves your legs exposed, and pairing it with these pants gives you the same protection as a full suit in two pieces.
The 3-layer mesh construction holds the outer fabric away from your skin, so a bee sting cannot reach through under normal working conditions. Keep the waist and ankle seals snug for the best protection.
Order your normal clothing size and check the height-based size chart on the product page. Stout and Tall Slim cuts are available if a standard size has never worked for you.
Not if you skip bleach and fabric softener. Wash cold on a gentle cycle and air dry away from heat, this keeps the color even instead of patchy over repeated washes.
Yes, identical. The mesh layers, ankle protectors, zippers, and sizing all match exactly. The only thing that changes is the color.
Yes, it's one of our most popular gifting choices, especially paired with our pink mesh jacket as a matching set. If you're unsure of sizing, roomier is safer, and our 30-day returns cover exchanges.
Machine wash cold on a gentle cycle without bleach, then air dry away from heat. Wash regularly during the season, since sting pheromones left in the fabric can agitate bees.
The pants themselves, with zippered ankle protectors already built in, full-length YKK leg zips, an elastic waist, and zippered thigh and hip pockets. No gloves or veil are included, since this is a bottoms-only piece.
