KEY INFORMATION
MANERA SEAFARER WOMEN FZ 3.2 MM - Women's fullsuit, summer and mid-season
What we like
- Built like a winter suit: It uses the same materials and technologies as the winter Seafarer suits, in 3 and 2 mm thickness. This makes it suitable for mid-season.
- Front zip: Chest entry, zip-free back for greater flexibility and reduced water entry.
- SFOAM foam: Made from limestone. Manera claims it offers the best flexibility, warmth, and durability ratio on the market.
- XTEND Fleece lining: Loops that insulate and retain warmth. It is soft against the skin and quick-drying.
- SD2 Tape seams: Taped over 100% of the fullsuit, according to the FW27 book, for watertightness and long-lasting performance.
- 3D patterning: Manera designs its fullsuits in 3D before flattening them. This creates a cut that follows the body without creases.
- Two colors: Choose between Black or Pewter, available in all five sizes.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION
The Seafarer in the Manera range
Manera categorizes its wetsuits into ranges: the Classic for beginners, the Seafarer for a well-made base, the XTEND for mobility, and the Magma for extreme cold. Manera describes the Seafarer as a no-frills wetsuit, well-cut, made from high-end materials. It offers the best value for money. This 3.2 mm is the thinnest of the women's Seafarer fullsuits, classified by GlissEvolution as a summer wetsuit.
A summer wetsuit that handles mid-season
Manera presents this as a high-quality summer wetsuit, built with the same materials and technologies as a winter wetsuit. This allows it to be used in mid-season, even on cooler days. The XTEND Fleece lining insulates and dries quickly. The taped seams limit water entry.
The Seafarer FW27 construction
Manera summarizes the Seafarer as everything that makes a good wetsuit: warmth, comfort, durability, with the brand's cut and construction. It features SFOAM limestone-based foam. Manera claims it offers the best flexibility, warmth, and durability ratio on the market. The XTEND Fleece lining has loops that insulate and dry quickly. The XTEND jersey is soft and lightweight. SD2 Tape seams are used on 100% of the wetsuit, with a 3D-designed pattern and a water strainer to drain water.
The front zip
Entry is through the chest. Compared to a back zip, the back remains entirely flexible foam, and less water enters. Donning it takes a bit of practice the first two times, but once you get the hang of it, you won't go back. Manera also offers this thickness with a back zip and in a hybrid version, with long sleeves and short legs.
Choosing your size and color
Five sizes, from XS to XL, in women's cut, and two colors, Black and Pewter. The size guide higher up on the page cross-references height and weight, based on the Manera FW27 women's chart. A wetsuit should fit snugly when dry: if it's too large, it will create water pockets; if it's too small, it will pull on the shoulders.
