I have asked my husband to pick the green beans for over 40 years. Thanks to these, I am happily giving him a break from that chore. No more itchy, rashy green bean arms! Thanks!

I’m a Horticulture/ Permaculture student & needed something to protect my arms from the hot sun. I got a pair of your fab #gardeningsleeves & I absolutely love them!

Everything I grew in my garden irritated my skin. I used a hoodie all year and that was like a sauna. The sleeves are cool and there has been no irritation while using them. Thanks!

I used your gardening sleeves and really liked them. My son came over and cleared out a bunch of wild blackberry bushes and other unwanted brush and I gave him my sleeves to use. He loved them and took them home with him he liked them so much!

Frequently Asked Questions

Sleeves- Please see our Size Guide (linked below) for exact measurements, but we do recommend the same size as whatever shirt you wear. If you wear a medium shirt we suggest getting the S/M. If you are in between sizes (sometimes you wear a Medium sometimes a Large) then we would suggest the smaller size. It's better to have them be a little snug than too loose.

Straw Hats- Please see our size guide (linked below). Since the hats are handmade there is a little size variance between each hat, but they do have an elastic band sewn around the head opening to make up for this variance and allow them to fit sung on most heads. The brim is 4.5" wide.

Aprons-  Have hip measurements of S/M - 36.5" - 44 and L/XL - 42" - 50"


Masks and Gaiters- One size fits most.

Size Guide

Sleeves- We recommend machine washing them with a strong detergent on a regular cycle low to medium heat. Preferably with other work clothes and not any delicate items. Make sure to use strong detergent or the resins won't come off. They can be tumble dried on low heat but as with all clothes hang drying will help keep the fabric nice longer. Also consider using a dryer sheet with fabric softener to help longevity

Masks- We recommend to start by removing the filters. Then hand or machine wash on a delicate cycle. Please only air dry. Do not machine dry as the strap and valves can become damaged. Prior to washing, hand wash the rubber ring inside as this may get build-up over time. Let them air dry and reattach the valves once they are fully dry by clipping back into place. 

Aprons- We recommend machine washing them with a strong detergent on a regular cycle. Preferably with other work clothes and not any delicate items. Make sure to use strong detergent or the resins wont come off. They can be machine dried but as with all clothes hang drying will help keep the fabric nice longer. 

Gaiters- We recommend machine washing them with a strong detergent on a regular cycle. Preferably with other work clothes and not any delicate items. Make sure the Detergent is strong or the resins wont come off. They can be machine dried but as with all clothes hang drying will help keep the fabric nice longer. 

Straw hats- Only can be hand cleaned by wiping down and should never be submerged in water. Be cautious with pressure to the hat structure as they are straw and being bent too much can cause cracking

Apparel-  (Shirts, Hoodies, Beanies, Snapbacks) Please wash according to manufacturer's directions on tags.
