We are going to Maui. Some reviewers claim fins are too small for ocean. Has anyone tried these fins in Maui?

I didn't try them in Maui, but Kauai. Size doesn't really matter because after about an hour of use, they'll be broken. And you shouldn't expect to get your money back. I bought two sets and both sets were garbage within the first few hours. Big waste of money.

I used this snorkel set in Kona on the big island and had no trouble with them. We also went out on the Body Glove tour boat, and they worked well for that. I think that people have too high expectations for this set. It's not a set you'd use with tanks. I had no trouble in twenty-five feet of water, on a nice day, and was able to dive down about Fifteen feet. I think I could have gone deeper if I could have held my breath longer. They are a little big for kids. My daughter had trouble with her mask leaking.

As a newer Go Pro user, i cant give my opinion from experience, but i did use the drying inserts, while snorkeling and in humid Jamaica and everything worked out great. I did use the filters some, but didn't notice a huge difference, didn't have any issue getting them to fit. I opted on the side of better to have it then not have it. Haven't used them since.

I've used them with full fins and open fins with no problem, but would rather use diving boots for open fins. They get a bit loose after a few uses, but still work well as socks for full fins. If you use them without fins they're not that great because they flood easily.

I didn't have anything break. The whole system does not feel right. I returned my fins right away, stick with DUCK FEET. You will never go wrong with Duck Feet, that is if you are a Body Surfer.

They seem to be. I sweat some and they still work. I think they work better on ankle when wearing shorts. Have not worn in the ocean yet. Hope this helps. I can recommend the (After Bite Stick) after a bite. Can get at Wal-Mart for $3.00.

I am a women and wear a size 10. The medium fits me just fine, the large was too big so I quess these are men's sizes. Maybe contact the seller to double check. Good luck, I love my aqua sphere fins!

I own these fins -purchased a few years ago. They have held up beautifully for swimming in the ocean about one to two miles almost every day. Their weakest point is the strap. Be sure you always wet the fins and put them on wet feet. Then the strap is no trouble. I even use these as my dive fins now, really love them. So comfortable. These are the only fins I use now - and I have many different types from before I found these.They would not be good for deep free diving, however,

Yes... I am a new swimmer, but a mature woman .. I tried longer fins at my pool, but they felt clumsy. These are perfect for me. They help me move through the water, and work a bit harder. I love them. I ready one review about pressure on your arches, which is true. If you have a high arch you need to stretch them a bit. but they are worth the effort. New swimmer

we took our sets to Cancun last year. They took up a lot of space in the suitcase, but we went snorkling every day & were very glad we had our own equipment to go whenever we want. The fins for xl mens are about 24 inches

The fins are about 0.5", or slightly under after a bit of use and compression. it will just fill a 0.5" gap, but will not be a snug fit, and I'll guess a little air might get in on a windy day.

I bought them for diving because my boots were too wide for my foot and they worked great for me. And I walked around on the soft deep sand at the beach in Panama City Beach in Florida with them. I didn't notice any sand that had gotten in. I really like them. They fit securely around the lower ankles. I hope this helps.

They fit my large Décor fins pretty good (very similar to scubapro jet fins). But as with all replacement fin straps they are a little thinner than the originals. So you either need to tape them with good electrical tape or as I do with black zip ties to make sure they don't slip. Of course they will only fit you after you do this.

Have had no problems with kayak; however, I did lose the FIN while going across rocks. Cannot find a replacement. Just take fin off if you know you are going to be in shallow water.

Fit, yes. Stay on while swimming? Probably not. Get cracked in a couple of uses? Most likely. Get the rubber one by finis. It's called the Foil monofin & beware that the XS is super narrow, so just get the size small Finis Foil. And if you want a mermaid looking rubber fin for about triple the price get a merfin in orange or blue.

This fins may not fit your feet. The largest is XL (11-13). I wear shoes size 11 and bought the XL. They are very tight and I had to return them.

YES.... The fins are stamped 4-7 Small, my wife uses and she is a 6.5. They seem to be true to size as I have a 9-11 and wear a size 10.
