Questions & Answers
I'm a size 10 with a very narrow range of motion. 5 foot. I like how it fits.
Good afternoon, Thomas. For exact numbers, I don't have these on hand. The length is approximately 22" and the width is approximately 8". They easily fit into my travel luggage. I also have a couple of older fins. I'm glad I dropped down to these grades. This was an excellent purchase.
A small or a five
I do, in fact, wear a size ten. The Size Large is a 5 in most shoes. Range 9. The number 5 is the ideal number. This is a fantastic set of fins. I've tried a variety of fins over the years, but the vent design in these is my favorite--it provides plenty of thrust while being easy on the legs, making them ideal for snorkeling or a pool workout. I hope this information is useful.

In the Florida Keys, I bought these for snorkeling. I put them to the test in my pool as soon as I got them. My first thoughts are as follows: br>br>I'm a size 10 in the US, and the Large fits almost perfectly; the drain hole is about 3/4 of an inch away from my toes. They clung to my ankles snugly and didn't fall off once after three days. In the pool for 4 hours. I've read other people's reviews about how long this product lasts, so I'm going to give it a shot. I wanted something cheap so that if they were lost, stolen, or damaged, I'd only be out $20. The only thing that worried me was how much flex they had while swimming. They appear to give a lot of (flex) (see video), and I'm curious how long it will take for the fins to tear/crack at the point of contact. br>br>I'll be testing these in the open-air. Soon, I'll be in the water, and I'll give you an update on how ocean snorkeling is going. Until that time comes, they appear to be a good value at $20.
I bought a size large in 2011 and have a size 10 foot with a width of about D or E. They are extremely well-fitting. When I travel once or twice a year, I use them. They're still in excellent shape. They keep me afloat for a long time with little chafing. I've used Band-Aid Brand Hydro Seal Waterproof All Purpose Adhesive Bandages for Wound Care or Blisters, 10 ct with good results on the rare occasions when I've had rubbing.
I'm a size 11 in most things. 5 US Mens, depending on the brand and model of the shoe. These are a perfect fit for me. These fit well and the silicone foot mold conforms well enough that I am comfortable stating that they would likely fit a size 9. My big toe stuck through a little bit, but it didn't seem to affect the performance or my comfort. I did four dives and several snorkel trips over a several day period with no issues. 5 is also a good number. They appear to be incredibly productive. I've had issues in the past with large-surface-area fins, which caused stress on my ankles and leg cramps. These appeared to be the ideal size and shape for efficient kick rate and good propulsion. The unique design (with holes/slits) likely aids in this efficiency and streamlines them, and the outer edge pieces make excellent handles for carrying and handling them in the water. I didn't measure their buoyancy, but they didn't seem to float or sink easily, so they're probably near neutral. You can't go wrong with these, in my opinion! Especially considering the cost.
My shoe size is a ten. As a result, these fins of ten are 11. 5 - 5 are a tad loose, but the feet aren't squeezed or pressed, making them easy to put on and take off in the water. It is SO easy on leg muscles and powerful propelling because of the side openings. They're awesome, in my opinion. Fins were the best I've ever owned. They are suitable for both swimming and snorkeling. I was blown away by the low cost for such high quality.
As a result, I now have a pair of fins that are completely useless.
This is the first set of fins I've ever owned. They've helped me with scuba training. They were very effective. Now that I know better, I wouldn't recommend them for scuba diving because you usually wear boots and open-backed fins, but they work fine for snorkeling and I'm looking forward to using them. br>br>I placed an order for the number 9. I'm a number five, and I'm a number eleven. My feet begin to cramp if I have to stand in shallow water for more than a few minutes because my shoes are too small. But it's fine once you're moving.
These fins are extremely well-fitting. It's so relaxing. I began by snorkeling for a few hours each day. I usually wear a size ten ee shoe. The cut-out portion of the fin was one of my favorites. It made holding them a breeze and made it easier for me to put one on while the other was being put on.
I tried swimming with a smaller, adjustable open heel travel snorkel fin, but it took a lot of effort. I put them to the test in my pool. They are a lot less difficult. They're a few inches shorter than the ones I had before. They're 22 inches long and wide. From tip to tip, this piece measures 5" in length. They fit perfectly in the bag I purchased for our upcoming trip with the full mask snorkel. I got the Large Men's (I'm a size 10) and it fits perfectly. Depending on the cut, a size 5 or 11 dress shoe is appropriate. They're the perfect fit. I can't speak to the design's long-term durability, but it appears to be well-made.
