Hi,

I've recently purchased a pair of Size 9 Bare Trek Boots. Are they going to work with size L Jetfins? I'm hoping someone with similar feet sizes can help me with that.

Just installed springs on a NEW pair of Jets (foot pocket of old one tore). I would hate to have to buy new fins, cos i LOVE the jets... I'm crossing my fingers that someone is gonna post a "YEAH IT DOES" reply..

Thanks!

Probably not. See kidspot's chart: Aloha Shore Divers

According to his chart size 10 Trek boots didn't fit XL jets. And I know from experience that I had to upgrade to Turtles from XL jets to get the size 11 trek boots to fit. So I doubt size 9 treks would fit into L jets.

If they don't fit, then you could either try the XL jets (they may be too small as well, but if they fit they are better because of longer blades than L jets) or XS Scuba XL Power fins if prefer shorter blades (and the foot pockets are just a little bigger too). If neither of those work then you'll have to go to either XS Scuba Turtles or OMS XXL Slipstreams.

Another option would be to just forget the trek boots and try Chuck Taylor hi-tops or similar instead. (My size 11 Chucks work with my XL jets).

Good luck.
