Simply question. What size should I order? I wear size 11D shoe (US). I wear Waterproof B1 6.5mm XL Semi-dry neoprene boots. Half the stuff I see suggests LG and the other half XL. I won’t be using these for drysuit diving, just wetsuit.
 
I wear a sz12, LG fit with 5mm soft sole boots. Hard sole/7mm fit better with xl
 
Maybe if enough of us post you will have enough data points to make a decision. I wear a L Eddy, XL jets and size 11 Henderson gold core boots (they have a pretty substantial sole). Feet are 10.5 US.
 
I have a size 12 shoe, wear a size xxl with a dgx 5mm bootie, and I got XL. Seems to fit nice. I asked Deep6 and they recommended I go for the XL
 
The deep6 fins have an unusually shaped foot pocket. I used 4 different kinds of L fins and all were fine until i got the eddys. I tried all kinds of things to adjust the spring strap to get it right for me, including trying the 2XL fins (which had an enormous pocket, I sent them back). In the end I solved the problem by switching to a different brand of bootie. I had been using scubapro booties and switched to Aqualung. The Aqualung work perfectly with the deep6 fins for my foot, while the scubapro left me with cramps.

Edit: corrected size
 
(US) 13 shoe, 12 Tusa bootie, XL Eddy for me
 
Oops I made a mistake, and realized it when I saw Rob's post. I use XL eddy fins, it's the 2x which are enormous. 14 shoe size.
 
I think you’ll be on the cusp depending on the width of the waterproof boots. I am an 11 and wore XL eddy with 6.5mm boots with a lot of rubber. Switched to dry suit and attached boots were actually less robust and I can now fit in a L eddy.

measure the width of the boot and compare stats
 
I wear an 11D in Nike and NB athletic shoes. I have 3mm and 5mm Mares zip boots with a bit of a sole on them, the Classic I think they are. I wear a Regular in Mares Quattro fins, an XL in the SP Jet Fin and a size L in the Eddy Fin. If that helps.
