The Bare 5/3mm ULTRAWARMTH Hooded Vest – Men’s adds insulation around the torso and head beneath a compatible wetsuit. The combined vest and hood keep the two areas covered together, with the listed thickness layout and entry details helping you choose the right extra layer.
Features and Details
- Men’s hooded-vest cut.
- High-loft OMNIRED inner fabric.
- Attached vented 5mm hood with 3mm skin-in face seal.
- GEN2 hood vent.
- Rear mask-strap grip pad.
- Double-glued and blind-stitched seams with Secure Lock construction.
How the Features Help
- Venting: The listed vent arrangement allows trapped air to leave the hood rather than collect around the crown. Keep those openings clear during use and cleaning.

Fit and Use
Choose a close fit that allows comfortable head movement. Check the face opening with your mask skirt and, where applicable, the neck or bib with your suit collar. For a hooded vest, check the extra layer inside the wetsuit so the combined fit does not restrict breathing or shoulder movement.
Additional Product Information
The Ultrawarmth Hooded Vest adds coverage to the torso, head and neck when layered with a compatible wetsuit. Its OMNIRED inner fabric and sealed seam construction support thermal comfort without adding separate hood straps or closures.
Check the vest fit with the wetsuit it will be worn with. Choose thermal protection for the conditions and your comfort; clothing does not extend gas or decompression limits.
More About This Model
The Bare 5/3mm ULTRAWARMTH Hooded Vest Men’s is designed to keep you warm throughout your core and head with high-loft Ultrawarmth OMNIRED Infrared Thermal technology embedded in the inner fabric. GEN2 hood vent allows trapped air to escape and helps reduce water from entering, while the skin-in face seal—and neck seal that mates with the wetsuit collar— helps reduce water flushing. OMNIRED is scientifically proven and FDA-determined to conserve body heat and accelerate thermal recovery.
Double-glued and blindstitched with SECURE LOCK construction improves isolation and reduces flushing for warmer, longer dives.
Gear Care and Washing
Rinse inside and out in cool fresh water after every use to remove salt, chlorine, sand and residue. Gently hand wash when needed with a material-compatible wetsuit cleaner at its specified dilution, following the garment label, then rinse thoroughly.
Keep any vent openings clear and settle face and neck seals gently when dressing. Dry the lining and inside of the hood fully before storage.
Allow both sides to dry completely in the shade with good airflow. Store clean and dry away from direct sunlight, heaters and hot cars. Avoid crushing the neoprene or leaving it folded sharply for long periods.
Protect smooth seals and coatings from fingernails, jewellery and scrubbing. Rinse any zip or fastener free of grit, and use only the maker’s approved lubricant where required. Do not machine wash, tumble dry, iron, bleach or use solvents.
