when I put my foot in the XL jet sans-bootie it fits very snug on my foot. it would be impossible to wear any bootie with it. and in the pic the turtle looks just a tad bigger.
Odd situation. My son wears a sz 13 Deep See Atlantic boot, with XL Jetfins. Snug, yet works fine. But several have said that XL Jets are way too small for even a sz 12 boot.

well I have a new problem....
I can't get trimmed out in these *******s.
my feet sink and all my weight is already trim pockets high up on my tank :(

If your feet are too heavy, you may want to try the SlipStreams instead of heavy Turtle or Jets.

yea
I'm getting a 7mil semidry tomorrow. I'm wondering if my feet will be more floaty in that...
seems like with my current 3mil setup i need a lighter fin
 
all is well :)
6 dives in the semidry over the weekend and trimmed out quite nicely with the turtles. I LOVE these fins
i guess when it warms up and I pull the 3mil back out i'll need something lighter but until then...
