PRODUCT DETAILS

The Original Bug Shirt® was first introduced to the public in 1991.

The original style has gone through several slight modifications since then and still offers good basic protection.

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
 

Size and colour choices

The “Original Style” Original Bug Shirt® is available in 5 adult sizes – from S to XX.

It is available in the Sandstone color only.

The X Small Adult and XXX Large Adult sizes are only available in the “Elite Edition” style.

For a rough guide, consider the size of sweat shirt you would wear. Then check with the Chest/Hips and Sleeve Length in the chart above. Choose the larger size if you are between two sizes. The adjustable elastic cords at the wrists and the draw cord at the waist mean you can make it work for you even if it is a bit big.

Sleeve length is traditionally measured from the centre back of your neck, over the shoulder to your wrist bone, with your arm straight. This is not easy to do yourself, but you can measure a well fitting long sleeved shirt or jacket to get an idea.

 

Bug Pants

Both styles of the Bug Pants  are available in two leg lengths: short (2″ shorter than regular) and regular. The inseam measurements given in the chart below are those of your best fitting pants, and not the actual measurements of the bug pants. The bug pants are actually cut 2 1/2″ longer than ordinary pants to ensure they stay tucked into your shoes, even when fully bending your knees. So there’s no need to order longer than you would normally; to protect you better – we’ve already taken care of that.

First establish your size based on your hip (around the fullest part) and waist (about an inch below your belly button) measurements, then determine the length you need.

The Regular Pull On style is generally more suited to women; they are a little fuller in the hips. Please check the size chart carefully for both styles before ordering.
