Description

Costume

  • Ellipse ring system: You have chosen modularity. If a cuff breaks during a dive, it can be replaced in minutes. Heavyweight gloves together with Halo AR linings (based on aerogel technology) will provide warmth even in extremely cold water.

  • Kevlar Protection Pack: Kevlar reinforcements on the knees, elbows, and buttocks make this suit nearly indestructible when crawling over wrecks or rocky shorelines.

  • Tech Dry-Boot: These boots are stiffer than standard socks, providing better support when walking with heavy equipment, while maintaining ankle mobility for technical fin strokes (frog kick).

Comparison: Argonaut Stealth Hybrid vs. BARE Aqua-Trek 1 Evo

Cut Standard size chart L, ~80-100kg. Standard size chart

Thermal insulation Optimized for deep, long dives Medium (more suitable for active movement)
Weight Medium Ultra-lightweight (ideal for flights)

Key differences: Why is Argonaut more expensive?

1. Customization vs. Mass Production

BARE Aqua-Trek 1 Evo is a great “workhorse”. It is made of Cordura material, which is very light and dries quickly. However, it is a standard suit. If your body proportions do not perfectly match the chart, the BARE will be somewhere too tight or too loose.

Argonaut It's like a custom-made suit – it will fit perfectly, reducing the amount of ballast needed because there will be less excess air in the suit.

2. Technical durability

Your choice of Kevlar kit for the Argonaut suit takes it to another level. The BARE Aqua-Trek is durable, but it is designed more for recreational divers or those who travel by plane. The Argonaut is designed to last for years in harsh conditions.

3. Ring system and accessories

Included in your package Ellipse The rings are some of the best on the market – they are lower profile than many round systems, making it easier to access pockets and reducing the risk of snagging. BARE usually comes with standard cuffs, and ring systems often have to be installed separately.

Conclusion

Choose the BARE Aqua-Trek 1 Evo if:

You are a recreational diver who cares about the weight of the suit during flights and who wants to save money by sacrificing a perfect fit.

Your chosen Argonaut 2.0 Stealth Hybrid is better because:

  • This is MTM – this will be the most comfortable suit you will ever dive in.

  • Kevlar protection guarantees longevity.

  • Full set of gloves and rings is already integrated and ready for the coldest waters.

With this configuration, you have created a “no compromise” drysuit that will last for many years, even under very intensive use.
