Product Information
The Bare 2mm ExoWear Unisex Gloves are neutrally buoyant exposure-protection gloves for scuba divers, snorkelers and multi-sport water users, built with a 3-layer stretch fabric, OMNIRED infrared technology and 2mm ELASTEK full-stretch neoprene wrist cuffs. Bare's lab testing shows the ExoWear fabric slows thermal loss by 36% at 1 ATM of pressure, and the box-cut design with a single Amara palm keeps feel and dexterity intact when you are working clips, buckles and an inflator button.
Who it is for
These gloves suit divers who want thermal protection, worn alone or layered with other exposure protection. Because they are neutrally buoyant and cut for multi-sport use, they also work outside scuba diving. The unisex sizing and black colorway make them a simple add-on for a dive bag that already has a hood and boots.
Key details

- Fabric: 3-layer system that is water repellent, windproof, breathable, quick-drying, wicking and antimicrobial, with 4-way stretch.
- Cuffs: 2mm ELASTEK full-stretch neoprene wrist cuffs for comfort and sealing, with a high-cut interior wrist for easy on and off.

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 sizes do the Bare ExoWear Gloves come in?
Bare publishes the ExoWear Gloves in unisex sizing from 2XS through 2XL, in black. The sizes offered here are 2XS, XS, S, M, L, XL and 2XL. Because the glove uses 4-way stretch fabric and a 3D pattern, aim for a snug palm with your fingertips reaching the ends of the fingers without bunching. If you are between sizes, call 888-701-4017 and we will talk it through.
Are the Bare ExoWear Gloves 2mm all over?
No. The 2mm figure refers to the ELASTEK full-stretch neoprene wrist cuffs. The body of the glove is Bare's 3-layer ExoWear fabric system with 4-way stretch, and the palm is a single Amara panel in a box-cut design for feel and dexterity. Bare's lab testing shows that fabric slowing thermal loss by 36% at 1 ATM of pressure.
Can ExoWear Gloves be layered with other exposure protection?
Yes. Bare lists ExoWear as thermal protection that can be worn alone or layered, and the ExoWear Gloves are built as neutrally buoyant multi-sport exposure protection. The 3-layer fabric is water repellent, windproof, breathable and quick-drying, supporting Bare's multi-sport use positioning. The high-cut interior wrist is designed to make the gloves easier to pull on and off.
How does OMNIRED technology keep your hands warm?
OMNIRED is a thermo-reactive mineral infused into the ExoWear fabric. It reflects outbound body heat back toward your hands for added warmth. Combined with the 3-layer fabric system, Bare's controlled lab testing showed ExoWear slows thermal loss by 36% at 1 ATM of pressure. The 3-layer fabric system also includes an antimicrobial inner fleece.
