Question Can anyone recommend a WIDE fin??

So my mom and I have been having an issue with our fins (the kind you wear with the dive booties). We're both ladies with wide feet, and with diving equipment being mostly sized for men you would think width would not be a problem, but it is!

I usually wear a size 11 womens (which would put me at about a 9 mens) and sometimes wide width is required. Problem is fins only come in S, M, L, XL. The fins we currently have have been a pain to us the last five years as they hug the sides of our feet too tight and cause us to cramp up. Time for some new ones! Any suggestions for brands/models that run wide?

Default Re: Can anyone recommend a WIDE fin??

Try AquaLung's Slingshot, ScubaPro's TwinJets, or the Force Fin. All have very wide foot pockets. I use the TwinJets or Force Fins when I dive in my dry suit. If the pockets work with my rock boots, you should have plenty of width in a wetsuit boot.
