Abstract:

An insect proof garment for protection against mosquitoes, black flies and other insects is disclosed. The garment is made entirely from a lightweight semi-rigid insect excluding mesh and is comprised of a one-piece fully encloseable head net attached to an upper body portion, with the upper body portion extending from the neck to proximate the hips of the wearer and has sleeves connected thereto. There is a separate lower portion extending from the wearer's waist and having leg members connected thereto. The one-piece fully encloseable head net is preferrably stitched to an upper body portion from about a right side shoulder seam to about a left side shoulder seam thereby forming a rear portion of a neckline. A means for opening and closing of the heat net (preferrably a zipper) is appropriately attached to a front portion of the neckline. The zipper provides a means for the wearer to optionally open and close the fully encloseable head net and permits the wearer to place the head net to the rear of the wearer's face.
