I have bought some things in my life time but buying one of them Oz Armour 3 layer suits tops one of the all out best things i have ever bought... my only negative comment with them is the big lugs on the zip for fastening the veil once you zip the chest zip up which hinders you fastening the Velcro...simple remedy cut the big lugs of the zips and you are good to go.

Great tip. I have worn mine in full sun 26 degrees with just my shorts on underneath with a nice breeze coming through the mesh and no stings.

Where's the best place to buy from for the best price please?

Not been too bad for stings with normal suit but sweating buckets....

What is the sizing like? The website gives little information.

I ordered a Large as i am a medium in normal clothing but they sent me a X Large and it is fine.. it is a little baggy but not a problem... the veil was for someone with a head like a medicine ball though.. but i quickly remedied that by folding the back of the veil down and putting two stitches in with a needle and cotton to hold it in place..

The link shows 145 quid. I paid 99.

Ok then, prices are roughly comparable here, though I did find a source that was throwing in a pair of gloves with the suit.

i paid 130 through amazon (i felt id have protection from any dodgy sites etc) and it came v fast

I went x large and its baggy but fine...i would prefer large though

similar to others...wear shorts underneath and its lovely and cool on v hot days and completely safe, even where it rucks up and folds because of excess material (too big) it doesnt afford an easy place to sting because the technology of fabric makes for a depth of fabric they cant sting through

And...mine came with an extra round veil in addition to the normal one plus a pair of gloves which i dont use but are v high quality and i may give to guests handling bees

v v impressed

Was this .com? I can find it there but not on .co.uk. It's on .com.au but at a stupid price.
