Jetfin size

Can anyone tell me what size Jetfin I would need for size feet8/9? From looking around other posts/sites it looks like XL?

Cheers, Dave

Another vote for XL.
I've got a set of Large and they just about fit with my size 8 soft style boots on my Poseidon drysuit. They fit fine on my DUI suit but they have got turbo soles but if you have got hard boots then go for XL.

Dave,

It's not only DIR divers who use Jet's, I think you'll find they've been around a bit longer than GUE ;-) I use XL's in a drysuit (size 10 feet) and get away with L's in wetsuit booties. If you haven't used them before you may find the foot pocket very small initially, this is normal.

I use XL with my O'Three suit with 8/9 boots. Even with XL they are a little tight, particularly on my right foot, but I do have wide feet.

XL definately.

The XXL are way too big, get a family of 4 and the dog in them.

The L will be too small.

Another vote for try before you buy. I had a pair of XL Jetfins, Scubapro version, which did not fit my size 10 Otter Brittanic clad foot. My foot went about halfway into the pocket. They were great when using a wetsuit boot though. I now have a pair of XXL Turtles and they're a good fit on the dry suit boot and I have gone back the X3's for the wetsuit.

Watch out if you have an O3 dry suit. I am size 9-10 and the XL didnt come close to fitting me Its the boots on the drysuit thats the problem.
