Julien Salles heads up Manera in Montpelier, France, the accessories brand is part of the F-One group owned by his father, Raphael. I've been lucky enough to call Julien a friend for some time and watched him develop Manera with a real passion for the products and how they can benefit the people who use them. He's got a great philosophy, not just for business but for life as well and he's not afraid to take the path least travelled.

We have a wide-ranging chat about growing up with Raphael Salles as his father, how he developed a passion for watersports and the ethos behind the Manera brand, among other things!

Enjoy!
