Regular Ventilated Goatskin Beekeeping Gloves
Standard-length goatskin beekeeping gloves at our lowest everyday price in the vented lineup. The goatskin palm gives you the feel you need to handle frames, the canvas upper protects your wrist and lower forearm, and the mesh vent keeps your hands from overheating. A solid no-frills working glove for everyday hive duty.

How It Works
Goatskin keeps enough flexibility that you can still feel what you're doing on the frames, while resisting the stings and scrapes of routine hive work. The standard-length canvas upper covers the wrist and lower forearm — shorter than our extra-long gloves, but enough for everyday inspections where you're not reaching deep into a defensive hive.
Before You Order
These are standard length — the canvas covers the wrist and lower forearm but does not extend to the elbow. If you want full forearm coverage, look at our extra-long gloves instead. Goatskin runs close to true size; size down if between sizes. Sold by the pair.

FAQ
How are these different from the extra-long gloves?
Same goatskin construction — these are standard length, covering the wrist and lower forearm. The extra-long version extends up to the elbow.
Will bees sting through them?
Goatskin resists stings well. No glove is fully sting-proof, but a properly fitted goatskin glove rarely lets a stinger reach skin.
How should they fit?
Snug but not tight. The leather softens with wear, so a close fit when new breaks in comfortably.
