    ...No, not me. Not sure of the feasibility.

    Better question, would I like to see someone try to dive in them?....YES!

    either in the Gulf of Mexico or New England
    I haven't but I love my VFF's. One of the reasons that I got a pair a few years ago was because they offered the freedom of feeling barefoot when I couldn't be barefoot. Wearing them with fins would seem counterproductive, maybe a pair like the Flow with a pair of lightweight fins? I would give it a shot, but neither pair that I have would be suited for diving. That and it's cold up by me...

    A friend of mine uses it as his booties for his "force fins" and he's very comfortable in it

    I have the Fila version of these... They fit my V-16 fins just like my 3mm booties.. However, much cheaper just to wear the 3mm booties IMHO..
