Manera XTEND Mens 4/3 FZ Wetsuit Key Features:

• Front Zip: Fast and easy frontzip entry for maximum comfort and warmth while riding.
• XTEND Fleece: The XTEND fleece offers good thermal insulation in all areas where it is strategically placed, and benefits from one of the best drying time on the market. It is lighter than a classic fleece, which provides a perfect balance of flexibility and lightness, keeping you warm without weighing you down.
• SD2 Tape: The neoprene layers are glued together and then “blind-stitched” (the needle does not go through the neoprene layer completely). Then the SD² tape is welded to the seam by an air heater machine. This innovative process brings more durability, waterproofness and flexibility to our wetsuits.
• Reinforcement Patches: High durable reinforcement patches are placed in the critical junctions of multiple seams around the suit to avoid leaking and to keep it flexible.
• Squareflex Jersey: The new, ultra-stretch Squareflex Jersey is placed in the high-mobility zones such as around the shoulders and arms to follow your every move with ease.
• Key Pockets and Water Strainer: Two key pockets with key attachment elastic ropes: one of the side of your shin area, and the other on the inside of the suit under the front zip. You’ll also find the water strainer at calf height : The perforated neoprene drains the water out of your leg instantly to let you continue the session in the best possible conditions.
• Ocena-Foam: Neoprene-free, bio-based material with natural rubber, oyster shell powder, and plant-based oils to deliver quality while shielding delicate skin from harsh chemicals.
• DESIGNED IN 3D: When the industry standard is to develop 2D patterns and try to fit it on a 3D body, we decided to break new ground and take the opposite direction. We use computer design to model good-fitted wetsuits in 3D, then we employ an innovative software that converts it into a precise 2D pattern for the factory.
• Characteristics: Flexibility 95% Warmth 85% Comfort 100%

Strategic structure: Some areas are very sensitive to friction, tensions and tearing. All MANERA wetsuits have been designed with a demanding brief including:

. Avoiding seams in tensions area, to maximize flexibility and strength.
. Making sure the seams are stretched vertically and not sideways.
. Removing seams from friction areas, which avoids rash and increases stretch capacity.
. Reinforcing strategic parts and panels right where it needs to be.
