Deep Six Outfitters Eddy Fin

The trick is you just drop some lp 85's on your feet until they spread out to fit the bigger pocket.

Miracle-gro or booties with a real tread sole would be my suggestions if you dont want to wait for another size.

My issue is the fin pocket is too big. I have a Large fin, and have tried my largest booties (which are almost OK) but my favorite booties rattle around.

Any plans for producing a Medium-size fin for normal people rather than all the BigFoots out there?

umm, my foot is pretty much a perfect 10.5 D, the Large works great with normal wet booties and "turbo sole" type drysuit boots, sneaker sole boots of the "standard" drysuit boot and I am in the XL. I weara 11 in dive boots as nobody makes half sizes (hmm..idea)

We are making a sm-med and a XXL.

Sorry to hear you aren't getting a good fit

Will the S-M be the same size fin, or will it be smaller too?

I don't have any LP85s; I've got HP100s, and with the different size valve neck, I don't they they'll work the same.
I guess i could try it anyway, but I have to do ti before my wife comes home. She has no sense of adventure.

In fact, I'm looking for a pair of dive sneakers! I tried the Poseidon One Shoe, but it has a wimpy little sole, not a nice solid, thick tread. I need that heavy sole anyway for coral rubble (think Bonaire).

Well, they aren't rubber, weigh much less (5.2lbs a pair versus the 7.2 of jets I just weighed on the same scale) They are pretty much neutral in fresh, positive in salt water. The foot pocket is VERY different than a jet, we spent a ton of time working on making the most comfortable foot pocket we could giving full foot support without digging into teh top of your foot. The speing strap attachment is different than jets as well, and you get to choose between the pull tab spring cover or webbing (every pair comes with the webbing if you prefer to use)

They are also $100, versus $140-150 for the jets with a spring strap.

In fact you can get two pairs for $180 so you can have a pair for diving wet and a pair for diving dry.

Is the 5.2 Lbs the weight of the size large or the XL fins?

Thanks

I think large, but not sure. I will check (re weigh)when I get back in office. That said the XL fin is more buoyant than the Large, very slightly positive in fresh.. "floaty" (how is that for a technical term?) in salt

Can confirm, XL eddys were slapping me in the face while clipped on d ring and gearing up @ BHB.
