Which is cooler in the summer?

No difference.  The bees can't hold on to the nylon as well and so you tend to have less clinging bees.  But they both work fine.  I have several of each.

I use suits that are made out of chem suits that i get from the local safety supply center. they only cost 5.00 and last about a year with a little care. also are great for removals just throw away after getting covered in honey. bees can't hold on or sting Thur.

I'm a very low cost bee keeper.
