Thanks! I'll add those to the list.

You using dry suit or wet ???......If wet, Pinnacle and XSScuba make 14 boots that fit well w/the Hollis F-1's......

 

[Diver Scallop]

Wet. I'll look out for those boots, thanks.

I am a size 14 going on 15, and with either 1/4" wet suit boots, or DUI rock boots, my Apollo Bios do fine, although a tad snug on the drysuit, but still comfortable.

Good to hear. I'm 13/14 so hopefully the foot pockets will have enough headroom for me and the boot.

Stopped into the store on my way into work this morning and walked out with a pair of boots and a pair of Hollis F1s. It came down to those and the Jets and the F1s just felt a little better on my foot. Got my class tonight so I won't have to wait long to give them a try.

Where are you taking your classes Todd? I might have to visit LP for a pair of fins myself and I fit your dimensions so thanks for narrowing the number of options for me

I'm taking classes at the Prospect Park YMCA. The program is run by Ocean Horizons.

Good luck with your fins! Definitely try them on with whatever boots you're going to use.
