Reactive 5mm

Our warmest wetsuit using innovative OMNIRED Technology with Graphene

$614.95

THE REACTIVE. REACTIVATED.

Representing a major step in wetsuit innovation, the Reactive 5mm uses Graphene Omnired, a responsive textile that warms the wearer using their own body heat. By tapping this heat-capturing technology, the Reactive can insulate for hours without skipping a beat. The body-responsive effects of Graphene, combined with the power of Omnired, allow divers to maximize their comfort on every dive. In fact, lab tests have shown a 5-degree Celsius average temp increase over the original Omnired Technology.

Fundamentally, Graphene is a one-atom-thick layer of carbon arranged in a hexagonal lattice structure. At room temperature, it’s one of the best conductors of thermal energy ever discovered. Materially, Graphene is strong, flexible, lightweight and, of course, highly conductive—all traits that are well suited for use in a wetsuit.

But we didn’t stop at the lining. In a step toward sustainable design, the Reactive is made from a clean limestone-based foam that minimizes pollution while performing at the same level (or higher) as petroleum-based alternatives. Dope-dyed fibers cut pollution and wastewater discharge in our textile operations, and water-based glue—rather than solvent—perform over the long life of your suit while sparing the air of unclean toxins during the production process.

Choosing the right wetsuit starts with understanding the water temperatures you’ll be diving in. From warm tropical currents to colder thermoclines, the right thickness makes all the difference in comfort, performance, and safety. Learn how to choose the best wetsuit for your dive conditions.

The Reactive wetsuit is also available in 3mm and 7mm thicknesses. Looking for the women’s version? Check out the Evoke wetsuits.

Omnired Technology. Powered By You.

Built into every Reactive wetsuit is the scientifically proven Omnired Infrared Technology. Thirteen thermo-reactive minerals are woven into the suit’s lining, converting body heat into energy and reflecting it back to your skin. Medical studies have shown that this infrared energy improves the body’s circulation. Increased circulation improves oxygen levels in the body, enabling you to use less energy, improving overall warmth and increasing your dive time.


Bring the Heat with Graphene Technology

The Reactive is fortified with heat-capturing Graphene Technology—a lining that keeps you warm by tapping your own body heat. Graphene’s carbon nanostructures are embedded in the Reactive, converting your outbound body heat into thermal energy and reflecting it back to your body. The extra heat retention—combined with the power of Omnired infrared fabric—helps you maintain optimal body temps and stay warmer, for longer.
HEAT THINGS UP


Sustainable Design. Timeless Performance.

The Reactive is made from a clean limestone-based foam that cuts pollution and cleans up the production process while performing at the same level (or higher) as petroleum-based alternatives. Dope-dyed fibers reduce pollution and wastewater discharge in our textile operations, and water-based glue—rather than solvent—perform over the long life of your suit while sparing the air of unclean toxins during manufacturing.

5mm S-Flex Glove
Grip your next adventure.  BARE's S-Flex neoprene gloves have been updated to maximize comfort and durability. Designed for optimal dexterity, thermal protection and abrasion resistance, the S-Flex Glove is available in both 3mm and 5mm thicknesses.  To prolong in-water use, we designed them with pre-curved fingers to reduce hand fatigue. Four-way stretch neoprene provides a full range of motion and the glove fabric is double-glued and blind-stitched for total durability.  And sometimes gear needs adjustment mid-dive, so we included abrasion-resistant material on the palm and fingers for easy on-the-go tweaks to your kit.
