Overview
The Manera X10D Impact Vest is built for riders who want serious protection without sacrificing comfort or freedom of movement. Its lightweight, zipperless design fits like a second skin, making it easy to wear beneath a waist harness while staying securely in place throughout your session.
Constructed with Manera's premium X10D neoprene and innovative Shotgum Foam, the vest delivers excellent impact absorption while remaining soft, flexible and exceptionally lightweight. Every panel has been designed to move naturally with your body, whether you're sending big jumps, carving waves or spending long hours on the water.

Technology
Shotgum Foam
Shotgum Foam uses large internal air cells to absorb heavy impacts while remaining noticeably softer and lighter than traditional impact foams. The result is excellent crash protection without adding unnecessary weight or stiffness.
X10D Neoprene
Manera's X10D neoprene is one of the stretchiest materials in its wetsuit range. It delivers exceptional flexibility, allowing the vest to move naturally with your body while maintaining excellent durability and resistance to UV exposure.
Harness Zone
The lower section of the vest is intentionally left free from thick foam panels so your waist harness can sit directly against your body. This improves comfort, reduces pressure points and prevents the harness from riding up during powered sessions.
Anti-Slip Waist
A flexible silicone grip print on the inside of the hem helps keep the vest securely in place. It reduces movement while riding and prevents the vest from creeping upwards during crashes or aggressive manoeuvres.
Zipperless Construction
By removing the front zip entirely, Manera has created a cleaner, lighter vest with nothing to dig into your chest beneath a harness. The pull-over design also eliminates one of the most common wear points found on traditional impact vests.
3D Fit
Every panel is shaped to follow the body's natural riding position, creating a close, comfortable fit with unrestricted movement whether you're kitesurfing, wingfoiling or riding behind a boat.
