About this harness

The Exo 2.0 is Manera's signature waist harness, built on Adaptive Shell technology: rigid across the back plate, progressively softer toward the edges, so support and rotation stop being a trade-off. Famous for its thin profile and close wrap, it runs XS to XL including the half sizes S+ and M+ — fit tuning most brands don't offer.
