The heavy duty glove trades ventilation for maximum protection — double-layer goat leather in the high-wear areas (palm, fingertips) for beekeepers who want the thickest barrier between their hands and an agitated hive. Same short-sleeve, no-bunch design as our ventilated glove, built for durability over airflow. This is the Beekeeper White colorway.
Key Features
-
Double-layer goat leather in high-wear areas: full sting protection where you need it most.
-
Short canvas sleeves: fit under or over a suit or jacket without bunching. Sleeve length is 14" from fingertip to velcro strap.
-
Reinforced elastic cuffs with wide velcro: secure, adjustable seal at the wrist.
-
Machine washable: wash on delicate, air dry, then re-oil the leather with any leather conditioner. Skip the dryer — heat cracks leather.
Size Guide
Measure all the way around the widest part of your palm, excluding your thumb — that's your palm diameter. A slightly snug fit works best.
| Size |

| XS |
7.0" - 7.5" |
| S |
7.5" - 7.75" |
| M |
7.75" - 8.5" |
| L |
8.5" - 8.75" |

The leather stretches with use — measure and order to your actual palm size, no need to size up for break-in.
What to Watch For
This is the warmer, less-ventilated option. If you're working hives in summer heat and want more airflow, our Ventilated Goat Skin Gloves use a vented hand and sleeve for the same sting protection with better breathability.
