Bare 3mm Velocity Ultra Men's Full Wetsuit

2022-03-11T10:47:27

I tried several 3mm suits. Needed one to dive on wrecks in Key Largo. This one fit me the best. The arms were a little loose; but, I wore a rash guard under it and was never cold all the way down to 130'.

This suit worked great with a 2.5mm vest under it when I used it for relatively cool water cenote' diving last month. I don't know that it would have been warm enough without the vest. I expect it will be perfect for most 'tropical' water temps, (e.g Hawaii, Caribbean). Size: Even though the Bare size chart indicated an XL Tall would be my size, I found that the XXL was a better fit, (I'm 6'-2" and 210 #'s). I

Comfortable and well made. This is my second velocity. The first one I bought in 2008 it lasted for 12 years with over 400 dives.

Fantastic suit and great service! I purchased this for a recent trip to Bonaire. The sales agent helped me determine the correct size (M-Tall, I am 6'2" / 180 lbs) and got it drop-shipped straight to me at the last minute. It fit perfectly and is a fantastic suit. It was perfect for doing 3 and 4 dives per day in warm tropical waters. I love the inner fabric. My only gripe was the "suit saver" kept scratching at my neck, but I eventually figured out to reposition it just a little bit and then trimmed the velcro just a little—a small thing and not enough to deduct any stars.

This suit fits me better than other brands. I wear a LS, I am 5’7” and weight 165. The rear closure is easy to use make no the suit very easy to get into and take off. The zipper has a loop at the bottom to hold the suit down as you zip and a suit saver tab on the top closure. Very well designed and comfortable. I am very pleased with my purchase!

I can't imagine an easier self-donning suit. The ankle zippers make pulling it on (and peeling it off) less of an adventure. The finger loop at the bottom of the main zipper is a nice touch for self-zipping. Fit of the ML is great for me, I'm 5'8" 185 w/ longer legs. I tried another brand (starts with H) and the legs were a little saggy above the knee, but not with the Bare. I think the material may be a little thinner than other 3mm suits, but I personally didn't buy this suit for warmth, as I run a little hot. I bought it for full-body sting/scrape protection and drying faster than a fleece suit. Dry weight, it's lighter than their Reactive suit by almost a full pound (tried that one too). The Reactive has better warmth, and ankle/wrist/back-zipper sealing, but the trade-off is more expense, weight, and difficulty taking on/off. The "H-brand" suit does have a better warranty and the knee areas may be more durable. But the Velocity is just very comfortable and easy. And as always, Leisure Pro is a breeze to work with for fast shipping and returns/exchanges.

I'm like one of the other reviewers, I question that this is actually 3mm, as I was in 83/84 degree water and it felt like I was wearing just a skin or 1mm. It was not warm, and I wouldn't want to wear this in anything less than 85+ degree water. I have a Bare Velocity 5mm and that one actually is 5mm and keeps you warm. But this one, no way. Find something else. First Bare suit I just wouldn't recommend. One of the first purchases I've been disappointed in at Leisure Pro as well. I literally have to spend more money now to buy another 3mm that actually keeps you warm. Buy this only if you run hot. If you run a little cool, this is definitely not the suit for you. It did have a good fit though.

I'm 6' 1" and 175 lbs. The MT/ML fits perfectly. I love the suit-saver tab on the velcro tab - keeps the teeth from grabbing the outside of the suit.

This is by far the most comfortable wet suit that I have ever worn. It's soft and super stretchy. The first time I tried it on my girlfriend said that "it looks like it was made for you". Yes, it was a little more money but, in my opinion, totally worth it. I wore it for three dives a day on a recent dive trip and my temperature was perfect. I am 5'11" 220# and ordered a large.

Nice fit and design but not the wetsuit for you if you tend to get cold while diving. I’m assuming the manufacturer is telling the truth that it’s a 3mm but it’s the first 3mm wetsuit I’ve owned over 20 years of diving where I was always chilled while diving in the Caribbean.

My old, stiff Scubapro wetsuit was in need of replacing. After doing a bunch of research, I decided to pull the trigger on the Bare Velocity Ultra. I am 5'10" and 192 pounds, and originally ordered the ML. That size was too tight around my chest. Leisurepro made the return and replacement with a Large very easy. The Large fit me perfectly. I did need to make sure that I had the suit properly pulled on, as at first the neck felt a bit tight. The suit is very stretchy and overall feels well constructed. Such a difference from my old wetsuit. The suit, not surprising, felt even better once I got in the water. I found it pretty easy to put on and take off. My wife, who of course is a bit biased, also thought that the wetsuit looked really good. I have a liveaboard trip coming up in a few weeks and I am really looking forward to using this wetsuit a bunch.

I frantically searched Websites a few days before leaving for Australia after discovering lat minute my schedule would allow visit to Cairns It's almost impossible to determine from recommended size charts what will in fact fit. I'm 5'11', 200 lbs, big belly. I found the Bare 3mm Velocity on sale. I called Leisure Pro and went with their recommendation XL. As advertised the suit arrived in 2 days, the day before I was leaving. It was a perfect fit. The suit was easy to get on and off , and kept me warm through three dives at water temp 83-84 degrees. I tend to get cold and a lot of people were diving with Lycra suits (provided by diveboat) but for me 3mm was exactly right. Thank you Leisure Pro for excellent product and reliable customer service.

Wore this wetsuit this past weekend and it is by far the most comfortable one I have ever warn. It is warm like a 5 mm and stretchy like a lycra dive skin.

I was replacing a 10 year old 3mm wet suit and wanted a soft and comfortable new model. This wetsuit deserves the high ratings in scuba magazines. Warm but not bulky. Very flexible. Easy on and off. Does everything you want and looks good to boot.

Just want to say thank you soo much Leisure pro for recommending this suit. Customer service from Leisure has been exceptional in my experience. They guided me to the right suit after talking with them on the chat for a while. I gave them my dimensions: 38.5 chest, 34.5 hip/waist, 6ft, and 170lbs. Leisure pro staff recommended the perfect fit of a Medium-tall. So right on for customer service definitly be recommending and shopping at this online store again I have yet to do a dive in this suit but the fit is phenomenal and BARE uses high quality materials. The stretch is very good and I guarantee this thing is going to keep me warm. Very pleased because not use to having a wetsuit that actually fits me since I started Scuba diving at such a young age. Super excited to try this out in the Caribbean: Honduras, Belize, and Cozumel. Thanks a bunch guys at Leisure pro!

Leisurepro has been great to work with. Merchandise arrived on time as promised.. I really do like Bare Suits, this is my 3d, and the first Ultra. The velocity fits nicely and the Sizing as shown is right on for me. I am a warm water diver and this 3mm seals nicely. I love the zippers. I highly reccommend the suit and Leisurepro.
