Details
Discover the art of maritime tradition with our Extra Large Manila Rope Fender, a handcrafted masterpiece designed to protect your boat with style and sustainability – and shipped free worldwide. Each fender is meticulously knotted by hand in Sweden, using time-honored techniques that echo the craftsmanship of centuries past. This isn’t just a fender – it’s a piece of history, reborn for modern waters.
Crafted from 26 mm Manila rope, this fender showcases the finest natural material for the job – strong, durable, and beautifully textured. The rope itself tells a story: reclaimed from a historic Swedish ropewalk, it’s hand-twisted by skilled artisans at a local, preserved rope factory. Using 12–15 meters of this reclaimed Manila, we transform it into a robust fender measuring 65 cm (25.6 inches) in length and 13 cm (5.1 inches) in diameter – perfect for larger vessels needing extra protection.
By choosing our traditional handmade fenders, you’re not just opting for quality; you’re supporting sustainability. This reclaimed rope, once part of the rope-making process itself, reduces waste and offers an eco-friendly alternative to plastic. Pair that with the natural beauty of Manila – or explore our synthetic hemp and jute options – and you’ve got a product that’s as kind to the planet as it is to your boat.

Care instructions
To maintain functionality, it should be allowed to dry thoroughly when getting wet. The most important thing is that the fenders hang above the water surface. This allows them to dry naturally. Proper care, including rinsing off salt and dirt with fresh water, letting the rope dry well, and optionally oiling it, reduces drying and rot—especially in manila. In this way, the fender’s natural beauty and durability are preserved.
