Double-glued and blind stitched seams mean you'll get seasons of reliable use from the Bare 5mm Ultrawarmth Hood. Secure-lock construction improves isolation and reduces flushing, keeping you warmer and diving longer. ELASTEK/Glideskin-in trimmable face and neck glides nicely over your hair. Hood neck seal mates with dry suit seal/wetsuit collar. Bare's GEN2 hood vent allows trapped air to escape without letting water enter. The mask strap grip pad on the back of the hood secures your mask strap in place. Now what makes them so warm, you ask? 5mm neoprene with low-loft Celliant technology in the inner fabric is the answer.
Conserving your energy in the water is essential to achieving your warmest, most comfortable dives. But when heat escapes your body, you lose more than 60 percent of your energy. Ultrawarmth Celliant Technology converts your body heat into thermal energy before it escapes and reflects it to your body, so you can maintain your optimal body temperature. Ultrawarmth Celliant Technology has been scientifically proven and determined by the FDA to provide thermal energy, increase endurance, and speed up recovery. All Ultrawarmth products, accessories, and wetsuits have Ultrawarmth technology embedded in the fabric of the material. Ultrawarmth Celliant Technology uses 13 thermo-reactive minerals embedded in the fabric of the material to convert wasted body heat into thermal energy and reflect it to your body. This process improves circulation and temperature regulation for a warmer, more comfortable dive, and more time in the water. Infrared energy boosts the flow of blood to your body's tissue, elevates oxygen levels, increases warmth, and improves stamina. Keep your thermostat just how you like it. The circulatory system is also the body's heating and cooling regulator. By optimizing blood flow, Celliant makes it easier for the body to maintain its ideal temperature, keeping you warm and diving longer.
Cells grow stronger, so does your diving. The infrared energy created by Celliant stimulates cell performance and regeneration, while the increased circulation nourishes the cells with higher levels of oxygen, further promoting cell health. Enhanced cell function means your stamina and endurance are amplified. Hood is black in color and available in multiple sizes.
Omnired® Infrared Thermal Technology: Lined with 13 thermo-reactive minerals woven into the interior fabric. These minerals absorb escaping body heat, convert it into far-infrared thermal energy, and reflect it into the skin to enhance blood circulation and maintain core thermal warmth.
7mm ELASTEK Full-Stretch Neoprene: Built with ultra-flexible, high-stretch neoprene that allows for easy donning and doffing while providing a comfortable, pressure-free fit around the head and jaw.
Large Bibbed Base: Features a generous 3mm bib extension that tucks smoothly under the collar of a wetsuit or semi-dry suit, creating an impenetrable water barrier across the neck and chest to stop cold-water flushing.
EVS (Extra-Vent System): Integrated air venting system at the crown allows trapped air from your regulator or surface breathing to escape without letting cold water seep in.
3mm Glideskin Face Seal: Outfitted with a soft, smooth-skin Glideskin face seal designed to trim easily to fit your mask skirt, forming a tight watertight seal around the perimeter of the face.
Mask Strap Grip Pad: Includes a textured pad on the back of the hood to prevent mask straps from slipping during active diving.
Glued & Blind-Stitched (GBS) Seams: Assembled using double-glued and blind-stitched construction to eliminate water entry through the seam lines and ensure long-lasting durability.
