I just started diving dry and I need a fin to wear with a rock boot. My foot is size 12, 5-E wide.

I do not want split fins. I have a pair of Scubapro Seawing Nova's in XL that barely fit my foot wearing my stocking foot drysuit with a 5mil soft boot overtop.

Anyone with a similar size hoof have a recomendation? I am thinking OMS Slipstreams or Scubapro Jets, or something similar if they will fit.

I also do not have the rock boots yet, and welcome any input there as well. I tried on some at the LDS but did not love them
 
Anybody using the OTB SAR boot instead of a rockboot? How would I size it for this application?

I found a place on the net where I can get them for $65. Any thoughts? The other posts on OTBs seem all positive.
 
try a hollis f1. I have a 15 4e foot and the xxl has more then enough room for my foot in a heavy boot. you might try a large or extra large. they are great fins, basicly a redesigned jet fin with an included adjustable spring strap, very heavy duty fin. this is the fin for big footed people.
 
XL Tutles Should be good. But if you needed something bigger the XXL Jet's will fit. Both fins have a very generous foot pocket the XXL jets have a very big pocket. As far as Rock Boots. Bare Makes an Excellent boot.

Bare Boot
 
Force Fin anything that is XXL fits beautifully and is easier to don/doff not to mention easier to use. with the OTB boot you'll want a XXXL
