Discount Lee Valley Adult Hooded Bug-Protection Shirt

For outstanding protection from biting bugs, this bug shirt has a built-in hood that can be worn with or without a hat underneath. The matte black mesh minimizes glare so it won’t significantly obscure vision, and a zipper at the neck lets you have a snack or drink without having to remove the shirt.

Made in the USA from 100% polyester, the ultra-fine mesh has 2400 openings per square inch, providing a light, unobtrusive barrier that lets the breeze in while keeping even tiny gnats and biting midges out.

It’s also surprisingly tough, with a slightly stiff texture that helps it hold its shape, creating space between the mesh and your skin so bugs can’t bite through it, while helping it resist snagging on branches as a softer mesh would. Sturdy elastic at the bottom accommodates a range of waist sizes, while full-width rib-knit wrist cuffs stretch for a snug but comfortable fit.

The small/medium is recommended for adults approximately 115 lb to 175 lb (52kg to 79kg), and the large/extra-large is for adults approximately 175 lb to 240 lb (79kg to 109kg). It’s intended to fit loosely, so if in doubt, order the larger size. Machine washable.
