Manera ALT Meteor 4/3 Chest Zip Wetsuit

Triplex ALT
These three materials (Re-flex skin, Yulex Pure®, Magma Recycled) brought together create a warm, durable and comfortable wetsuit.

Re-Flex Skin
Born from the latest technologies of stretch fabrics, the RE-FLEX SKIN is extremely flexible, durable, and UV proof. It enhances your movements and makes them more explosive.

Yulex Pure®
Yulex Pure® is a natural plant-based rubber that provides cleaner alternative to traditional petroleum or limestone-based neoprene.

Renewable
Unlike finite rosources like oil and limestone, natural rubber is a renewable resource. Directly tapped from Hevea trees without cutting them down, it ensures a long-term supply stability as well as a drastically reduced environmental impact.

Reduced Carbon Footprint
Yulex claims that using their natural rubber rather than traditional neoprene reduces the carbon footprint of our wetsuits by 80%.

Recycled Magama Warmth
The new MAGMA Recycled is knitted with 45% recycled polyester. Its fleece insulates and keeps you warm even during the worst winter days. MAGMA_ is found on all parts of MAGMA wetsuits, except the arms and legs – which require greater flexibility.

Recycled Jersey

• Inside: Assembled with 100% recycled nylon, the inside jersey is a key part of the wetsuit, being in direct contact with the skin. The Manera Jersey fabric not only provides maximum stretch and lightness, but also a smooth, silky feeling on the skin.
• Outside: Assembled with 83% recycled nylon, the outside jersey is made to provide the ultimate flex while resisting UV rays, salt, tearing and frictions.

Strategic Structure

Some areas are very sensitive to frictions, tensions and tears. All MANERA wetsuits have been designed with a demanding brief including:

• Avoiding seams in tension areas to maximize flexibility and strength.
• Making sure the seams are stretched vertically and not sideways.
• Removing seams from friction areas to avoid rashes and increase stretch capacity.
• Reinforcing strategic parts and panels right where it needs to be.

Sealing Prints
Sealing prints make the ankles and wrists stiffer. It has a joint role that keeps the water away and maintains the arms and legs panels in place.

Back Knee Emboss
The back of the knees is an area that requires specific care. The Back Knee Emboss helps the neoprene bend more naturally for greater comfort during flexion of the knees.

Water Strainer
A wetsuit leg filled up with water is a very uncomfortable issue, so the MANERA water strainer panel is there to prevent it. The leaky and perforated neoprene drains the water out of your leg instantly to let you continue the session in the best possible conditions.

SD2 Tape 2.0
The neoprene layers are glued together and then blind stitched (the needle does not go through the neoprene layer completely). The SD² tape is then welded to the seam by an air heater machine. This innovative process brings more durability, waterproofness and flexibility to their wetsuits.

Fusion Cut
The different neoprene layers are fused on the tips of arms and legs to make it thinner and more aesthetic. It protects the inside neoprene foam (AIR FOAM) by covering it.

Phantom Straps
If the water strainer panel is still not enough for you: the MANERA ankle straps are designed to be very thin so water sprays can’t take them off. They are also stiff enough to block the water from coming in, and light for a better comfort.
