FINIS Long Floating Swim Fins - Adult Training Fins - Improves Kick Technique & Body Position

My biggest worries with these fins were sizing and comfort. I ordered the blue/yellow size 1-3. My girls aged 7 & 9 wear shoe sizes 2 (very narrow) & 2.5 (average width) and these fit both girls wonderfully! They were also soft (the shoe part) and comfortable to wear according to both girls. My girls love the added speed they give in the water. They seemed, to me, to be surprisingly true to size, I expect by girls shoe size 4 we will need the next larger size fins. These did not fit my 5 y/o son (I had no expectation that they would) he wears a boys size 11, and the fins repeatedly fell off his feet in the water (so if you are thinking about buying them big so they last for more years, don't go too big!) They have a great feel and seem to be GREAT quality! All the kids at the pool wanted to take a turn with them, great buy!!!!! :)

Love these fins. Very important to try them on wet in the water and use them before you decide to keep or return them. Sizing and fit are a must. I one time scuba dived with wrong fit fins and at the end of the day went home with painful bloody blisters over my big toes, top of the foot and side of little toes. Lesson learned! At first these seemed tight on the sides but once I swam with them, they stayed snug and gave a good kick. OK for pool swimming or snorkeling. Divers may consider a more powerful fin.

My son wears an 8 men’s shoe and the 7-9 fits well - nice and snug. Not much room to grow but that’s ok. Better than blisters from rubbing.

These are a great quality product and worked well. Do note that the product runs very small and were particularly uncomfortable for wide feet.

I only used the fins once and can’t wait to swim with them again. My shoe size is us10, eu 41 With a medium size bunion 😞 Taking in consideration the seller’s advice, I got one size up which is us10-12 and glad I did. So comfortable!!!

Product was as described

About me: I swim 3-4 times a week and use fins as part of the drill... Sizing this fins can be challenging and hit or miss depending on your feet shape and length. So, beware. I wasn't expecting it to fit like a sports shoe especially given the size range but I thought I point out the shape and length of the slot did not fit me at all. Size: I wear shoes of size US 9. So, I bought 9-11 thinking it'd be good considering many reviewers recommending you to buy one size larger. But when I received it, I had to put quite a lot of force to squeeze my foot into each fins. Shape of the slot - Note that most feet is wider at the toes than heel, but the shape of the slot you wear into widens too little at the front. So, there's a tight squeeze at the toe area. When I try to stand up, the front part of my foot is very tight to the extent of being painful and you can't walk even few steps. I know the fins are not used for walking, so that's fine but I didn't expect it'd be painful. So now, I only put on the fins in the water. Length of slot - While the back part around my ankle has a snug fit, my toes protruded out quite a bit. When you stand up on land, it doesn't matter because the traction from the rubber prevents your feet from moving much. But when you're in water, the water allows your feet to move forward somewhat and as result my toes protrude even further out to the extent there's abrasion above my toes. Thinking I bought the wrong size, I bought another larger one 11-13. But guess what? The length is ok, but now, the cavity is a little too big and my foot can move inside and there is no snug around my ankle. I can still swim with it but too loose. As a fin, it works well and offers great flexibility and propulsion. Unfortunately, the fit may not suit everyone.

I love these fins!! As an adult I don’t grow out of mine, however, I keep having to purchase different sizes as my son grows. Nevertheless,, these are my go to long fins and we carry them on trips where we know we’re going to snorkel. I have bought him all sorts of kits that include these plastic and also short fins, but they just do not work as well as this brand. These just are the quintessential snorkel fin that you need while staying afloat. I became exposed to them while at my gym when I was first doing swim lessons. So ever since then I have invested in these for both my son and I. I usually put them on with a water sock to prevent blisters. I like that these you do not have to ratchet them down to size and have your toes sticking out. So as long as he keeps growing, I will keep buying these because these are amazing.

Drücken nicht an den Sehnen, sehr angenehm zu tragen...so macht das Training Spaß!!!

Vengo de unas Aletas Aqua Sphere - Alpha, las cuales me han ido muy bien durante un par de años, pero debido a su índice demasiado positivo de flotación me obligaban a hacer demasiada fuerza en la parte de la patada hacia abajo. Esto mantiene elevadas y flotando las piernas, corrigiéndote la posición si tienes esa necesidad, pero supone un sobreesfuerzo para los cuadriceps y terminaba cargándolos excesivamente si se usan más de 20-30 minutos, y en mi caso bloqueándolos. Estas Finis Floating, tienen una flotación que yo diría neutra, yo las he usado en travesías de un par de horas y no producen fatiga particular de ningún músculo de las piernas, más de la normal. Permiten una posición de nado muy natural y relajada, bajando y subiendo la patada sin tener que corregir la flotación positiva o negativa de la aleta. Su tamaño, aunque parece mayor en las fotos, es perfecto para natación en el mar, pero también correcto para piscina. El materíal es fuerte y flexible, manteniendo la linea. Son de silicona, sin bordes que rocen en la salida de los dedos, a menos que tengas unos pies más corpulentos de lo normal. Son resistentes y aunque cuesta pasar el talón, una vez entrado el pie, se adaptan con mucha mejor flexibilidad que las de goma. Su peso es medio, no son tan ligeras como la espuma de las Aqua Sphere Alpha, pero tampoco tan pesadas como las Speedo Biofuse. En cuanto a su talla, diría que el tallaje es más bien pequeño. He comprado la talla 9-11, las negras y rojas, y tengo una talla de pie 42 de España, 8 de UK, y son la talla perfecta para mí. Conclusión: muy recomendables si tienes un buen nivel de natación.

Good , On-time delviery

Muy buenas aletas. Flexibles e insumergibles y, gracias a esto, ayudan a mantener los pies altos, con lo que se consigue una posición más horizontal al nadar. Después de probar con otras marcas como Cressi ó Nabaiji, que no flotan y empujan los pies hacia bajo, estas Finis son sin duda las mejores.

It gives me an advantage in underwater swimming. Good product.
