these are my 2nd pair of fins. my first full shoe fin, as my previous ones were strap-on fins. I prefer to even lake swim with fins as I never tire while being in the water.

These fins are amazing, so much response and boost from my original plastic fins. The size length is very accommodating for packing in a luggage case for my trip.

I ordered these in my exact shoe size, and I'm unsure if a smaller size would have been more appropriate. I found them loose on my foot and wore a wool sock to create less slop while swimming. Maybe a full neoprene boot will cause these to fit tight, but I don't usually wear boots while snorkeling.

Shipping was super fast!! And the quality looks to be VERY high. Glad these came recommended by a diver with lots of experience.
