Yes, it's gone.
As I recall, the idea with Subgear was to provide a less expensive equipment line that Scubapro dealers could use to compete with on-line retailers. I don't think it worked out that well, and Scubapro has more or less formally embraced on-line sales from what I can tell, so the need for Subgear has more or less dissipated.
That's too bad as I liked some of the products they offered that are not packaged the same way or offered at all by Scubapro.

Many of the subgear items are now in the Scubapro lineup.

Lots of "brand re-alignment" going on. Aeris was retired recently too. Sign of the times.

Too many brands for a shrinking market.
I was looking at Subgear wetsuits only to find they didn't have my size so they ordered one in for me. Lo and behold, the same overall design but with a Scubapro logo appeared when it came in.
Same stuff, different name.
