The fabric is lightweight and cool but very densely woven so that mosquitoes can’t bite through it.
No-see-um mesh sleeves and sides allow cooling breezes in but keep biting insects out. The face mesh provides excellent visibility. All our bug shirts are made with no-see-um face mesh, to protect against even the tiniest no-see-ums and sand fleas. The zippered hood can be easily thrown back, and fits over a baseball cap or hard hat.
Wrist closures seal the sleeves against biting insect intrusion. A drawstring at the waist with bow cord lock provides a positive seal at the bottom edge. The entire shirt folds into its own zippered pocket, and travels easily on a belt clip
The Elite Edition: Bug Shirt® have all of the same features as the Original: Bug Shirt® plus these significant design enhancements for superior mosquito protection:
- Zipper at the top edge of the face mesh, with two sliders on it.
- Adjusting cord at the back of the hood
- Ribbed cuff and elastic cord adjusters at the wrist.
- Additional patch pocket with a velcro closing flap on the front of the shirt.
- Improved shape of the sleeve.
- New location for the drawcord lock at the waist.
