First Impression
In a hurry and looking for the gist of things? Here is our review in short. Keep reading for the entire version.
The Bare X-Mission Evolution is an absolute monster of a drysuit and arguably one of the best drysuits for recreational and technical divers ever made.
When you first put on the Bare X-Mission Evolution you feel like wearing a fancy tuxedo or tailored suit rather than a piece of diving equipment. It’s ultra-comfortable, looks like out of a James Bond movie, and is super flexible.
Bare is known for quality and even their lower-priced options are great. The Evolution is among the best drysuits ever made and a delight to dive.
