Are you sure you want a size large fin?
I have just bought some for my size 8 DUI boot and was an XL.

They also fit on my O3 suit.

Do you use Halcyon springs on your Jetfins, if so what size springs are they?

I have a O3 suit with size 8 boots, I also use Jetfins size XL.

I have wondered what size springs I would require.

Size large as well

I've got size 9 feet and use my XL jetfins with large Halcyon fin straps with wetsuit booties and DUI turbo soles.

If they are cheap I would take a chance - as they are about £50 new!

There's also a pair on ebay...

I hate the Halcyon spring straps - the Agir L (smaller of the two sizes) should fit you and are much better IMHO. They'll do the job fine - but the way the pins lock in place on the Halcyon straps I find very flimsy. If you go the Halcyon route - I reckon Jason's right about the large being OK
