Product Information
The Bare 2 MM Tropic Pro Diving Glove in Black is a warm-water scuba and watersports glove built around a double-reinforced AMARA palm for abrasion resistance and a 1.5 mm neoprene back for flexible warmth. Boxed fingers, an elasticized cuff with Velcro closure and a pull tab give it a secure fit and easy donning, and it is offered in seven sizes from 2XS to 2XL.
Who it is for
This glove suits tropical and warm-water divers who want hand protection more than heavy insulation, plus snorkelers and general watersports users. The double-reinforced AMARA palm adds abrasion resistance and protection, while the 1.5 mm neoprene back stays flexible. The Black colorway listed here is one of two colors BARE publishes for the Tropic Pro, the other being Aqua.
Key details
- Palm: double reinforced AMARA for durability and abrasion protection.
- Back: 1.5 mm neoprene for warmth without bulk.
- Fingers: boxed finger construction for fit.
- Cuff: elasticized with hook-and-loop (Velcro) closure.
- Donning: integrated pull tab.
- Base SKU: 055927, Black variants 055927BLK by size.
Compatibility and sizing
Sizes run 2XS, XS, S, M, L, XL and 2XL. BARE publishes a palm length and circumference size chart for the full 2XS to 2XL range, so measure your hand rather than guessing from your street glove size. Gloves should sit snug across the palm with fingertips reaching the ends without bunching.

Frequently Asked Questions
What thickness of dive boots, gloves, or hood should I choose?
As a general rule, thicker neoprene insulates more, so colder water pushes you toward thicker accessories, but fit, dive length, and personal cold tolerance matter as much as the millimeter number. Divers commonly lose a great deal of heat through the head, so a hood is often the highest-value warmth upgrade for the money. Remember that every added piece of neoprene also adds buoyancy you will need to account for.
How should dive boots fit?
Boots should fit like a snug athletic shoe, with no heel lift and no crushed toes; a little water inside is normal, a sloshing pocket is not. Try them on with the socks you would actually dive, and remember your fin foot pocket has to accommodate the boot. Hard-sole boots protect on rocky shore entries, while soft-sole boots are lighter and pack smaller for boat and travel diving.
How should dive gloves fit?
Gloves should be snug across the palm with fingertips reaching the ends without bunching, since trapped air and loose fingertips destroy dexterity. Thicker gloves are warmer but make buckles, clips, and inflator buttons harder to operate, so choose the thinnest glove that keeps you comfortable in your conditions. Try working a clip or buckle while wearing them before you commit.
How should a dive hood fit?
A hood should seal around the face and neck without restricting your throat or jaw, and lie flat on your head without pulling the mask strap out of position. A loose hood flushes cold water continuously, while an overly tight one is distracting and uncomfortable. Many hoods have a vent to release air trapped during descent, so check yours and burp out any trapped air before you go down.
Why does new neoprene feel so tight?
New neoprene compresses and relaxes with use, so a boot, glove, or hood that feels firm out of the packaging usually settles slightly after a few dives. It should still be snug afterward rather than loose, because neoprene that stretches into a loose fit was probably oversized to begin with. Buy for a snug fit when new, but never for a fit that restricts circulation or breathing.
Do I need to change my weighting when I add a hood, gloves, and boots?
Yes, because every piece of neoprene you add is buoyancy, and a hood, boots, and thick gloves together can shift your weighting noticeably. Do a proper buoyancy check any time you change your exposure protection rather than assuming your usual weight still works. The weight-check procedure is covered in your training, and a dive professional can help you re-do it.
How do I care for dive boots, gloves, and hoods?
Rinse them inside and out in fresh water after every dive day, since they hold sweat and salt more than any other gear, and dry them fully inside-out before packing. Dry them out of direct sunlight and never on a heater, because heat hardens neoprene and weakens glued seams. Store them dry and unfolded, as damp neoprene sealed in a bag is how gear picks up a permanent smell.
What comes with the Bare 2mm Tropic Pro Diving Glove?
You receive a pair of 2mm Tropic Pro Gloves packaged in a re-usable mesh bag. The mesh bag is useful for rinsing and drying the gloves after a dive day and for keeping the pair together in your gear bag. Each glove includes the integrated pull tab and the elasticized hook-and-loop cuff, so no separate accessories are needed.
What is an AMARA palm and why does it matter?
AMARA is the palm material BARE uses on the Tropic Pro, applied in a double-reinforced layer for abrasion resistance and protection. On this glove it covers the contact surface of the hand, which is where wear happens when you handle tanks, ladders, lines and gear. The back of the glove stays 1.5 mm neoprene so the glove keeps flexibility and warmth.
What sizes does the Tropic Pro glove come in, and how do I choose?
The Tropic Pro is offered in 2XS, XS, S, M, L, XL and 2XL. BARE publishes a size chart with palm length and circumference for the full 2XS to 2XL range, so measure your hand and match it to the chart rather than guessing. Aim for snug across the palm with fingertips reaching the ends without bunching, since loose fingertips cost dexterity.
Is this glove right for tropical diving, or should I go thicker?
The 2mm Tropic Pro is designed specifically for tropical and warm-water diving plus general watersports, with a 1.5 mm neoprene back that prioritizes flexibility and dexterity over heavy insulation. If your dives are in cooler water or you run cold, a thicker glove will insulate more. Call DiveCatalog at 888-701-4017 if you want help comparing thicknesses.
