What's a funny gift for a beekeeper?

Professional Bee Wrangler: cheerful, a little ridiculous, and every beekeeper knows “wrangling” is wishful thinking.

Is the bee cartoonish or realistic?

Does the hoodie run large?

It's a unisex, roomy fit. Most people order their usual size. Size up if you want an oversized, layer-over-everything fit.

Professional Bee Wrangler Funny Beekeeper Honey Bee Hoodie

About this design

Bees can't really be herded, which has never stopped a beekeeper from trying. This design is for the hobbyist with a hive out back, a veil on a hook and a story about the swarm that took off last June.

A round, smiling honeybee with yellow and black stripes, pale blue wings and curly antennae floats in a vintage badge over a teal sunburst. “PROFESSIONAL” crowns the top of the ring in cream capitals, “BEE WRANGLER” runs along the bottom in honey gold, and a red star sits on each side.

Wear the hoodie out to the hive on a cool spring morning, before the bee suit goes on.

Who it's for

Beekeepers at every stage, from a first package of bees to a dozen hives, will appreciate the title, and so will homesteaders and pollinator gardeners. Bring it to a beekeeping club swap.
