TSandM, Well I am a big guy, roughly 280 and 6 feet tall, using a stock 3XL with complete set of underwear, and I also a High stretch wetsuit in the summer months, the SB suit feels better then that wetsuit from performance (I am dry and warm) to movement and feel of the water enviroment...

Vjanelle We were told the same thing, roughly the 25th of March for Suit and underwear pieces. Happy diving to all.

Sdrames, I have heard the same thing, about 5 suits out there being tested/shown, not sure about the shows (Beneath the Sea, Our World Underwater), and who will and who won't have suits to show.

a22Shady Sorry I missed your post earlier. Yes the ease in the suit, seems to be a tight fitting product, great for Cave, wreck diving etc. But with the stretch and performance, it definitely has room in it for layers. I do beleive the new BARE Mid-Layer system, is very similiar to Fourth...

Belce, Yes it is the new Ti-Zip master seal zipper. I have been forunate enough to test dive that zipper in a variety of suits, and I know that they work with some of the Fish Farm teams on Vancouver island for testing of the suits, materials and zippers, and you are right they are very...

11x and Badadious, The suit isn't available yet, and latest news I got from the factory was that the suit should be in stock and ready to ship to retailers around the 1st of April, now, as we all know in this industry something could change and this date could move. Also the test team was...

Fireinmybones, From the tech specs that we test divers were provided, the suit will handle the same wear and tear and abrasion as the Trilam Tech, but what we don't know yet or weren't informed is how well all the chemicals may affect the suit (it is breathable of course!), so they asked that...

Black Jack, I think it is best to be very clear hear, the SB drysuit is not a competitive product with the Whites Fusion or anything else, it is completely different. Whites fusion is two suits bonded with velcro, and not really innovative, it works, but still it is a bilaminate shell, with a...

Vjanelle, I must admit I haven't dove with twins, with the SB drysuit, though I have dove with Steel 130's and extra tanks, and so far, I have no restrictions, I did own the Trilam HD Tech dry for the past 7 years, and have loved that suit, but as per my first reply, the SB drysuit, isn't a...

Badadious, From what I can tell so far, the underwear that the BARE guys have sent me to test with the suit, seem to be able to accomadate any temp. range. It is the first ever compression resistant fleece from Polartec, and it was produced in cojunction with the Navy Seals, having a base...

yes there are special undergarments as well, I forgot to mention those. The pieces I hve been test diving, is a 2 pc base layer (full stretch, high wicking/breathing, not much warmth by themselves), and a 2 pc main layer. This is also 4 way stretch, high wicking, not as much breathability as the...

Hey Terry, I am part of the BARE Test Dive team. I have been diving this suit now in various stages for over 6 months now. The first dives I did, I couldn't believe that a drysuit could perform and feel like a wetsuit. It was a second skin, moved with me in every direction, felt extremely...
