Hollis spring straps

[koozemani]

My wife has a pair of Hollis F2s and loves them. Her issue is that the spring straps on the med/large size that I bought her slip off her heel. Rather than buying her a new pair in a smaller size, can I simply replace the spring straps?

are there any fit issues with replacing her current straps with a smaller size fin strap?

Curious of you can source SS springs elsewhere and just swap them in.....

I know the straps are out there, I was wondering if there would be an issue fitting a small size strap on to a med/large size fin.

I swap straps all the time. No issues. Here are my favorite straps.

Never said they would work on Hollis.....just my favs. That happen to work on just about every other fin......[emoji4]

The Pro Pin Style here is better than UTD version at the much lower cost, except they are not red

Looking at the picture it seems like you could. McMaster-Carr sells springs.

On my F2s the spring straps can be adjusted to be tighter, there are basically four "settings". Have you tried that yet? mine slipped off before I tightened it up to the middle tightness setting. Would love to hear what other spring straps work tho in case I need to replace them someday.
