ABSTRACT:
A garment for protection against insects comprising an inner layer of material onto which an outer layer of mesh is placed. The inner layer is formed having a plurality of arches to elevate the outer mesh layer a distance from the user's skin. The outer mesh layer is impervious to insects while the distance defined by the arches prevents the insect's stinger or proboscis from reaching the skin. In an alternative embodiment, the inner layer is also made of mesh with a series of heat shrinkable polymeric strands running therethrough which are heat-treated to cause the inner layer to form a series of arches.
