Force fin sizing on a O3 dry suit
Having just picked up my O'Three Ri/200 on the back of lots of people on here saying how good they are, I am now faced with another opportunity to part some cash.

As I have come from using a Pinnacle semi, my Mares X3's do not fit on my size 10 dry suit boot. Normally my shoe size is a 9, normal width.

I think I am going to get some Force Fins Pro from Apnea, but I am unsure whether I need an XXL or an XXXL.

Can anyone shed any light on the matter as I want to get these ordered shortly so I can get wet again.

Steve

I reckon you'll be ok with a XXL.

I have size 11 feet, and my XXL Force Fins are just a little bit too small to fit on my O3 Ri200 boots.

But please don't blame me if you buy the wrong size .

Do apnea have a phone number? Measure the widest part of your dry suit boots, ring up the supplier and tell them you want fins to fit.

I'm a size 11 normal shoe size and in an Othree drysuit boot size 11. I have XXL Force fins.... you should be the same.

A comfortable fit and easy to get off, just as they should be.

Thanks for the replys, I'm going to go with the XXL as that seems to be what the majority of people think should fit.

No, and I understand that they are not for everyone. But I am fairly new to diving, so should be able to get used to them. If not, they can go on eBay.
