Size Chart - Glove (Heavy Duty)
Glove Heavy Duty Size Chart
  • Sting Protection that Breathes: Our patent-pending ventilated back using custom-molded mesh combined with a top grain cowhide palm, creates beekeeping gloves that are flexible, lightweight, VERY breathable, and stretchy, yet have superior sting protection so a bee’s stinger is less likely to reach the skin, even when gripping items or bending the hand. With these Heavy Duty gloves, the protection continues up the forearm in a breathable gauntlet.
  • Find Your Perfect Fit: To ensure the best fit possible, you MUST use the Size Chart and measure your hand. If your measurements are between sizes, go with the larger size. This bee keepers glove is made with a hook and loop strap that fastens securely around your arm. It is available in 6 sizes: extra-small, small, medium, large, XL, and XXL.
  • Maximum Durability: Our Heavy Duty gloves are named that for a reason. These bee gloves for men and women are designed for hard work, heavy abuse, and the rigors of commercial beekeeping. Our small beekeeping gloves use superior materials like top grain cowhide leather that withstands whatever you can throw at it.
  • Breathable & Comfortable: Our unique mesh allows for the highest degree of ventilation so that beekeepers' hands stay cool and comfortable during long hours of work. Our bee-keeping gear is always made to perform, and the unique construction combined with the soft, yet durable top grain cowhide leather is no exception. It isn't overly bulky or cumbersome and feels great on your hands.

No stings!

Great gloves, stings don’t go all the way through. Easy to work with and touch-screen friendly.

Not true to size

Based on sizing description on website I purchased an XL. Gloves are well made but very tight on hand and uncomfortable to wear. Let a friend who has smaller hands who would have purchased a large based on hand measurement use them and he loved them. Keeping them as eme agency spares and will be ordering a 2xl pair for myself

I am a small beekeeper 30 Hives. I want to comment on the Apis Tactical Gloves!!! these Gloves are fantastic not only do they protect my hands, but the best part is they last a Full season.. Every other glove that I have used over the last 20 years Failed halfway through the season and allowed stings. looking forward to my next years gloves 2026 I will keep the older ones for a backup Great Job!!!!!!

Sting stopper for sure

I never get stung through my suit, it was always in the wrist area of my gloves. Enough was finally enough, and I purchased these. The first day that I wore them, I was working with a very angry hive and sustained multiple sting attempts on these gloves - not a single one got through! I ordered the XS, I’m 5’ 105 lbs. If there was any suggestion I would make for these gloves, it would be to make an XXS for us super-petite fingered beekeepers out here! The XS are a little big for me but I’ll take that any day over getting stung in the same spot over and over again. These gloves are great!
