Key Features
🪵 100% Beeswax Coating
Every surface is coated with natural beeswax, creating a familiar, chemical-free environment that attracts bees and encourages rapid colony establishment. No synthetic treatments or paints.

Includes 2 deep brood boxes for colony growth and 1 medium super for honey storage. The standard Langstroth sizing means you can add more boxes as your colony expands — fully compatible with industry-standard frames.

Cedar wood naturally repels moisture and resists warping, cracking, and rot. This hive is built to withstand rain, heat, and cold across multiple seasons without deterioration.
🔧 Beginner-Friendly Construction
Precision-cut components fit together cleanly for straightforward assembly. No advanced carpentry skills required — ideal for first-time beekeepers setting up their initial hive.

Frequently Asked Questions
Should I size up to layer?
If you plan to wear it over a hoodie or sweater, size up one — that is what the room is for. Over a t-shirt, true size fits clean. The chart above breaks the numbers down.
How much cold does it handle?
It is built for fall through mild winter as your main layer — wind-blocking shell plus a warm lining. For single-digit days, layer it over a sweater and you are covered.
Does it block wind?
Yes — the outer fabric is tight-woven to cut wind, which is what actually makes you cold on an average winter day. That plus the lining is the warmth.
How many pockets and are they usable?
Multiple pockets that fit what people actually carry — hands, phone, keys. The zips or closures mean nothing slips out when you sit or drive.
How do I clean it?
Spot-clean or gentle machine wash cold, then air-dry — heat is the enemy of both lining and finish. For heavier shells, a wash-in tech cleaner refreshes the water resistance.
