drysuit boots

I have recently changed to a new drysuit (from a made to measure to off the peg).My old drysuit was a polar bear and the boots were thin but sufficient (size 8) and which I could use ok a XL jet fin.My new suit however a Oceanic ND400 has really thick boots which are a 8 but I think the thickness makes them a 10.This means my jets are out,cant use my LL holiday Appollo Bios- they too small.The only fins seem to fit are the Turtles but I find there is a little lateral movement when finning because of the softness of the foot pocket.
Any suggested fins Force fins etc or is it cheaper to replace the boots with socks or thinner boots?

I had the same problem chaning from Body Glove to a Polar Bear suit, bought some fins from Aqua Lung, the rocket fins. The feel lovely but as yet haven't seen the water.
