By BARE Sports | Ultra-Stretch Cold Water Drysuit Hood | Commercial & Recreational Grade
Staying warm on a cold dive is the ultimate challenge to enjoying your underwater work or exploration. The BARE 9mm Elastek Dry Hood is engineered specifically for harsh Pacific Northwest cold-water environments, delivering maximum thermal protection for recreational drysuit divers and commercial divers who demand extra warmth during extended bottom times. Built with BARE's full-stretch Elastek neoprene, this 9mm hood glides smoothly over your hair for effortless donning and doffing while forming an exceptional watertight seal against your drysuit collar.
Key Features & Extreme Cold-Water Performance
- Ideal for Commercial & Cold-Water Divers: 9mm high-density thermal insulation provides the necessary protection for long working dives, commercial ops, and winter drysuit diving.
- Super-Stretch Elastek Material: Delivers full head mobility and eliminates jaw fatigue without sacrificing the density needed for thermal warmth at depth.
- 5mm Trim-Able Glideskin Face & Neck Seal: Smoothskin seal glides over hair easily and allows custom trimming for an exact watertight fit around full-face masks, commercial gear, or standard regulators.
- Drysuit Collar Integration: The extended neck skirt mates seamlessly with drysuit neck seal warm-collar systems to eliminate cold water flushing.
- Integrated One-Way Air Vent: Purges trapped air and exhaust bubbles out the top automatically without letting cold water in.
- Glued & Blind-Stitched Seams: Reinforced GBS seam construction ensures long-term durability and structural integrity under heavy field use.
