FYFs vs booties

[B&B on the Sea]

Hi everyone, just thought I should share the love. My husband and I live on a boat, and every summer for the last four years we go to Bonaire, to escape hurricanes and for exceptional scuba diving. Mostly we dive from our boat, but there are some dive sites on Bonaire, and particularly on Curacao, which are better accessible from the shore. Have our booties, but last year we discovered these wonderful socks from FYF (FreeYourFeet). I will not go back to wearing booties. There is no longer that feeling that I am diving in hiking boots. It was easy to get over the rocky sea bottom, they don't slide inside the fin and around the foot like booties. I wore them while wind surfing, and was very impressed!. This year we bought these FYFs for all our crew for Heineken Regatta in SXM - (Yacht racing). the excitement and fun was great as the socks made it easier and safer to move around on the deck because of the grip they have on the sole. Some of our friends use them for kite surfing as well, that is what they were originally designed for, I think. So here is the link to its website. www.freeyourfeet.ca

Have a peek.

Heh heh. You already bought them for your whole crew? An item still seeking funding on KickStarter?

Nice.

Hi Madmanmike.
I believe they have not changed the button on their site (It still says pre-order) but we ordered through the site and they were in stock, and delivered. I think it was a kickstart a few years ago, but now they are in production and available.
We love them. The only size that was not available was the XSmall, but that was back in February.

It looks like you have two posts up on this same topic. Here's the other one.

I always appreciate a good recommendation, but just curious...are you related to the company in any way?

Thanks for asking! but no. We are yacht cruisers, living in the Caribbean. check out our site www.letsgosailing.ca
We meet people from all over the world, and one of our charter guests had a pair of FYF's.. and that's how we discovered them.
Happy diving!

Ah ok. You sounded really sales-y so I started to think this was just a bit of spam.

Thanks for feedback. No, not in sales, just like them, thought should share.
