Thd order took a little while to arrive but when they did they were packaged well & exactly as described. The only negative was that the fins are slightly large – they were a gift for my daughter who is in the navy on deployment – I ordered xs – she’s a size 5 shoe (Uk). Sadly the foot strap could not be tightened anymore & it was too slack to wear for snorkelling/scuba. Otherwise tho I’d highly recommend. Great quality fins at a super price.

Recieved these in the post today, i own both palau and palau saf’s in size S/M good snorkeling fin’s only once had an issue with strap’s and it was my fault for not checking my foot was fully inserted inside them ( son use’s saf’s ) the blade is about 6 in’s bigger than the palau’s, and the foot pocket although look’s about the same size in length it is wider and bigger in height so your feet slide further into them, i tried them on with 3mm neropene sock’s and they adjusted to the last setting’s on the strap’s, although they don’t feel loose only a trial while diving will give me that answer in april, my shoe size are 6 – 6.5 (fin’s are s/m 5-7) so if your feet are size 7 i would try these instead of going for the medium size 7-8, and if your feet are a size 5 these would be to big for you go for the XS/S size which are for feet 3-5.
They look good, so i will take a chance and keep them or look for thicker sock’s if they seem to slip.

Used it for a week of scuba wearing size UK-8.5 neaprene booties (so adding up to the equivalent of size 9 bare foot).
Decent thrust with minimal finning. The instructor kept telling me off for going too fast.
Seems reasonably durable.
If like me you are stretching the lower end of its size range, you might find the water resistance a bit uncomfortable.

EDIT:
These fins really are made for use with boots and take that into sizing account. I chose my size thinking of bare feet so combined with the fact I’m using just neaprene booties instead of thick rock boots, the fins are too big for my feet. They don’t fall off or come loose, but my ankles get tired trying to control them, as the fin surface is pretty big. In retrospect, I should have gone with the M/L size. I’m going to try the Cressi Palau fins next for bare foot and bootsie use. My Frog Plus are temporarily retired. I’ll either get proper rock boots when I get back into diving or give the fins away and get the smaller size.
