I have the opportunity to buy a pair of the neon yellow fins but it is from an online shop so trying out is not an option. I currently use the Atomic split fins in size Large and my shoe size is 9-9.5 depending on the brand of the shoes.

My boogies are : thin 5-mil booties that don't have a lot of soles for boat diving, and 5-mil booties that have a bit of hard sole but not too much for shore/rock entry.

I'd like to know what size of fins should I go for with the DR fins.
 
This is always a tricky question, because your boots can make a big difference. Our medium fin fits women size 8-10, so I would start with medium, BUT I can't guarantee that this is a true fit. It's really hard to advise folks who can't try them on because booties are so different, plus personal preferences.

Another diver posted in this forum inquiring about what size fins and he has the exact same shoe size and drysuit boot as my husband (who wears a size large fin) and when the diver got his large fins, he needed XL. Go figure.

I would order medium, but be prepared if you need to exchange.
