BARE 9mm Elastek Dry Hood
By BARE Sports | Ultra-Stretch Cold Water Drysuit Hood
Staying warm on a cold dive is the ultimate key to enjoying your underwater experience. The BARE 9mm Elastek Dry Hood is engineered specifically for Pacific Northwest cold-water diving and drysuit setups, delivering maximum thermal insulation without compromising flexibility. Built with BARE's full-stretch Elastek neoprene, this hood glides smoothly over your hair for effortless donning and doffing while forming a watertight seal against your drysuit collar.
Key Features & Cold-Water Performance
- 9mm High-Thermal Body: Crafted from 9mm Nylon 2 neoprene to minimize heat loss in icy ocean or freshwater environments.
- Super-Stretch Elastek Material: Eliminates jaw fatigue and head movement restrictions commonly found in standard rigid neoprene hoods.
- 5mm Trim-Able Glideskin Face & Neck Seal: Smooth skin seal slides over hair easily and allows custom trimming for an exact fit around your mask and regulator.
- Drysuit Collar Mating: Hood neck skirt integrates smoothly with drysuit neck seal warm-neck collars for minimal water exchange.
- Integrated Air Vent: Allows trapped air or regulator exhaust bubbles to escape out the top without letting cold water flush in.
- Glued & Blind-Stitched Seams: Reinforced seam construction ensures long-term seam strength and water tightness.
