Nice set of fins: Compact (shorter) for fitting in your gear bag, and great power for moving in the water. The large size was a hair too big for my bare size 10 foot. The medium size works better for me. I dive through ocean surf and use fins for safely being able to go where I want instead of being pulled by the current. These are great surf or snorkeling fins! 4 stars

I bought these fins to start bodysurfing and they have worked very well for me. The straps have very nice padding and sand easily drains out of the fins so there is no irretation while swimming. They feel a little snug on my right foot for some reason and I'll get a mild cramp there but I don't think that's a design flaw, but rather just something to do with the variation in my feet. Great product if you need some ocean fins. 4 stars

I travel to Hawaii quite a bit and was looking for a pair of swim fins that would be easy to pack in a suitcase. They are excellent for that. I have used them for body surfing with a boogie board and for snorkeling. They don't have the power of full size fins and they are a little stiff, but they work well for my purpose. 4 stars

I used these fins for swimming through caves in Guatemala. Although they weighed a bit more than I would have liked they were compact and worked very well. I would highly recommend them! 5 stars

I took these to the Virgin Islands....wore them every day for a week. They are so comfortable and easy to adjust to my feet. They are easy to pack because they are so short. I felt sorry for the others on the trip who didn't have these fins. 5 stars
