How Bare measures

Wear minimal clothing (ie. T-Shirt, shorts, bathing suit) at the time of measuring. All measurements must be taken with a soft tape measure pulled snug but not tight. Stand straight, looking forward with your feet flat on the floor. It is best to have help taking the measurements, in order to remain in the optimal measuring stance.

Weight: As close as you can accurately.
Height: From the top of your head to the floor.
Chest: Measure around the fullest part.
Waist: Measure around the narrowest part.
Hip: Measure around the fullest part.
Torso: Top of shoulder to crotch vertically.
Inseam: Measure from crotch to floor.

Product Information

BARE Exowear Men's High-Cut Pants are a 2mm neutrally buoyant exposure-protection garment built for scuba diving and other water sports, using OMNIRED infrared technology and a 3-layer, 4-way stretch fabric to help the body hold onto heat. Lab testing by the manufacturer shows Exowear slows thermal loss by 36% at 1ATM of pressure. A 2mm ELASTEK neoprene waistband with sewn-in foot stirrups keeps the pants in place under additional gear.

Who it is for

These pants suit divers who want neutrally buoyant exposure protection for scuba diving and other water sports. The high-cut waist and foot stirrups are built to stay in place during kicking and gear changes, making them a practical layering piece for divers who run cold or who dive year-round in variable water temperatures.

Key details

2mm thickness with a high-cut, men's fit
3-layer fabric construction with 4-way stretch and a 3D pattern for shape and fit

2mm ELASTEK full-stretch neoprene at the waist and ankles, with sewn-in foot stirrups
Flat seam stitching throughout for flexibility and comfort
Molded closure with an embossed grip pattern
Neutrally buoyant exposure protection
Manufacturer-rated to slow thermal loss by 36% at 1ATM of pressure in controlled lab testing

Frequently Asked Questions

How should a wetsuit fit?

A wetsuit should feel snug everywhere, with no loose pockets at the lower back, armpits, or behind the knees where water can collect and flush. It will feel tighter than normal clothing on land, which is expected, because the suit works by holding a thin layer of water that your body warms. If you cannot take a full breath or the neck chokes you it is too small, and if you can pinch loose folds of neoprene it is too big.

What do you wear under a wetsuit?

Most divers wear a swimsuit, a rash guard, or a thin dive-specific base layer under a wetsuit. A slick base layer makes a tight suit much easier to pull on and cuts down chafing at the neck, shoulders, and underarms. Avoid thick cotton clothing, which soaks up water, bunches, and makes you colder rather than warmer.

How do you put on a tight wetsuit?

Work upward in small sections, pulling a little neoprene at a time rather than yanking on one spot, and get the suit fully seated at the ankles and knees before working on the hips and shoulders. A plastic bag over each foot and hand, or wetting the suit first, helps it slide into place. Grip with flat palms rather than fingertips, since fingernails are the most common cause of torn neoprene.

Does a thicker wetsuit mean a warmer wetsuit?

As a general rule, thicker neoprene insulates more, so a higher millimeter rating is warmer in the same conditions. Warmth also depends heavily on fit, suit style, seam construction, whether you add a hood, boots, and gloves, how long the dive is, and your own cold tolerance, so two divers in identical suits can feel very differently. Use thickness as a starting point and refine it against your local conditions and personal experience.

How do I care for and store a wetsuit?

Rinse it inside and out in fresh water after every dive day, and use a wetsuit-specific wash occasionally to control odor. Dry it inside-out first and then flip it, always out of direct sunlight, because UV and heat break down neoprene faster than anything else. Store it hanging on a wide-shouldered hanger or laid flat rather than folded, so you do not set permanent creases.

How long does a wetsuit last?

Lifespan depends far more on use and care than on age, so a suit dived hard in sun and chlorine may soften within a couple of seasons while a well-rinsed occasional-use suit can last many years. Signs a suit is finished include compressed neoprene that no longer feels buoyant or warm, splitting seams, and looseness in areas that used to be snug. Repairing small cuts and seam separations early adds meaningfully to a suit's life.

What is the difference between a full suit, a shorty, and wetsuit separates?

A full suit covers arms and legs, a shorty stops at the upper arms and thighs, and separates such as tops, bottoms, and hooded vests layer to add warmth where you want it. Layering a vest or top under a full suit adds core warmth and can extend the range of a suit you already own. Choose based on how much coverage you want, both for warmth and for protection against stings and abrasion.

Can Exowear pants be worn alone or only as a layer under a wetsuit?

Exowear pants are a neutrally buoyant exposure-protection garment for multi-sport aquatic use, with a 2mm ELASTEK waistband and foot stirrups that maintain placement.

What sizes does the BARE Exowear Men's Pants come in?

The BARE Exowear Men's Pants are available in sizes S, M, ML, L, XL, 2XL, and 3XL. Since fit is close and stretchy by design, choose your size based on your usual wetsuit sizing rather than everyday clothing size, and contact DiveCatalog.com if you are between sizes.

What color options are available for the Exowear pants?

The BARE Exowear Men's Pants are produced in black, with a UV-resistant outer layer, windproof membrane, and anti-microbial fleece lining.

Can Exowear pants be paired with other Exowear pieces?

Yes. Exowear pants are part of BARE's modular Exowear system and pair with Exowear tops, vests, jackets, gloves, a hood, and socks.

Great purchase and "Like New" as advertized.

Excellent wetsuit but will it crush quickly like other wetsuits?

I purchased a BARE 5mm Reactive wetsuit (open box), which was like new, to replace my 1.5 yr old BARE 5mm Velocity wetsuit which had collapsed to only 2.5mm after 3 diving trips (~100 dives). The Reactive wetsuit is well constructed and very flexible. I had to increase the size of the Reactive suit, as it was smaller than the BARE Velocity suit of the same size. Tremendous customer service by Dive Catalog to exchange the wetsuit for proper size. I hope the Reactive suit does not crush so quickly like my other wetsuits (BARE, Henderson, Pinnacle). Hoping that the new technology in this suit will keep me warm below the thermocline.

Perfectly Built

Best of the many many diver hangers in my life. Easily supports my steel-plated BCD, while still donned with all of my accessories. No cracks, bends, or dents. Has even supported my BCD w/ a steel 100 tank attached (not recommended, for safety purposes, though).

Will continue to use this hanger for the long-term. No brainer.

Go-to Dive Hanger

This is a must-have for every diver. It's the quintessential hanger for all dive gear in one small package.

DiveCatalog's "Quick Dry Multi Accessory Dive Gear Hanger for Boots, Gloves, Hood" is set at a great price for a great product. Versatile enough that I've purchased extra hangers to organize my BMX racing gear.

Must-have for divers and anyone looking to organize their adventurous outdoor activities equipment.
