Skep Beekeeping Tee Shirt
Before removable-frame hives, beekeepers kept bees in skeps: woven straw domes that still show up on just about every beekeeping logo and honey label around. This tee puts one front and center. It's a vintage-style black skep hive print with Foxhound Bee Company lettering and "Working Bees Since 2012" on a soft blue heather shirt, with a small black bee below the collar on the back.
It's a lightweight poly-cotton blend that breathes on warm days and keeps its size wash after wash. It goes as well with a beekeeping class or a farmers market as it does with your regular drawer rotation. Our customers tell us it's one of the softest shirts we carry.
Key Features
- A nod to beekeeping history — a vintage-style skep hive print up front and a small black bee below the collar on the back.
- Light, breathable comfort — 65% polyester / 35% ring-spun cotton blend that stays comfortable through warm-weather wear.
- Keeps its size — heat-set fabric resists shrinking, so it keeps its shape wash after wash.
- Holds its shape — double-needle stitching on the sleeves and hem, plus taped neck and shoulders, keeps the collar and seams from stretching out.
- Comfortable classic fit — ribbed crew neck that sits flat and stays put.
- No scratchy tag — the tear-away label removes cleanly for a smooth neckline.
A Quick Word Before You Wear It to the Hives
Many beekeepers wear a favorite tee under their gear, and that's fine. Just don't count on this one as protection. Bees sting right through a T-shirt. Keep your suit or jacket on over it while the boxes are open.
