Where to buy

The Bare XCS2 Tech drysuit comes with customized extras so you get the suit you want. Choose between latex or neoprene neck and wrist seals. Do you want compressed density neoprene boots or compression-resistant soft boots?

Different sizes come in both tall and short versions so everyone can find a size to fit them. The fabric is so flexible that it should fit you like a glove. No-stitch technology means that there are no stitched seams, instead, they are double-glued and heat sealed for better insulation. The outer lining repels water so you don’t end up with a soggy suit after a dive.

Bare is so confident in the quality of the XCS2 Tech, they offer a lifetime guarantee.

Recommended in: Drysuit

Things we like:

  • No stitched seams
  • Great fit
  • Ultra-flexible material
  • Sturdy wrist seals
  • Pocket sits flat against the thigh when not expanded, reducing drag in currents
  • Excellent quality valves
  • Very little suit compression

Things we don't like:

  • There’s not really a lot to dislike here but if we were being very picky, we’d say that the shoulder dump is quite clunky.
