DETAILED DESCRIPTION
The Women's Seafarer+: The All-Round Winter Wetsuit
The Manera Seafarer+ is the essential winter wetsuit in the Manera women's collection. It incorporates the brand's core technologies into a robust, reliable, and comfortable suit, designed for regular sessions from mid-season through the heart of winter.
The 4/3mm thickness offers a great balance of warmth and mobility. 4mm neoprene on the torso and legs provides thermal insulation, while 3mm on the arms and shoulders preserves the full range of motion needed for paddling and riding.
Triplex Construction
The Seafarer+ uses Manera's proprietary Triplex construction, a laminate of three complementary layers:
Re-flex Skin (outer layer): A stretchy jersey that resists UV rays and abrasion. S-foam (core): Manera neoprene with an excellent warmth-to-weight ratio. X10D+ (inner lining): A thermal fleece that's 22% lighter than standard jersey, which speeds up drying time and retains body heat.
Seams and Finishing Touches
All seams are Glued & Blind Stitched (GBS) to prevent water from getting in. Critical areas are reinforced with SD2 Tape 2.0, a mechanically heat-welded sealing tape for greater durability and waterproofing.
Sealing Prints at the wrists and ankles prevent flushing to keep you warmer. The Fusion Cut fuses the neoprene layers at the cuffs for a sleeker, more comfortable finish.
Women's-Specific Fit and Ergonomics
Manera designs the fit in 3D specifically for the female form before converting it into a precise 2D pattern. The result is a wetsuit that contours to your body for a snug fit, free of pressure points.
The front-zip entry leaves your back and shoulders completely free, giving you total freedom of movement. The Strategic Structure design places seams away from high-friction zones to reduce chafing and improve comfort on long sessions.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
The technologies are the same (X10D+, SD2 Tape 2.0, Triplex construction). The main difference is the cut: the women's model is 3D-designed for a female body shape, with a pattern tailored to the bust, waist, and hips.
The 4/3mm Seafarer+ is suitable for water temperatures from about 10°C to 16°C. Below 10°C, you should choose a 5/3mm or add neoprene accessories like boots, gloves, and a hood. Above 16°C, a 3/2mm will probably be warm enough.
Yes. The Manera front-zip is designed for easy entry and it completely frees up your back and shoulders. The chest opening can take a little getting used to, but it quickly feels natural. It offers better comfort and a tighter seal than a back-zip.
