CompuDude:
Good to know. So... I think there is a pretty good chance I could fit size 9 rockboots, since they're cut so big to allow for mondo insulation layers. (I don't think I need all that much insulation, as my feet really don't get cold much.) Do size 9 rockboots fit ok in XL Jets? I REALLY don't want to have to buy Turtles unless there is absolutely no other option. Not so much because of the money, but because I then have to schlep two pairs of big bulky fins everywhere I go, if I may want to alternate wet and dry.

Also, I think Converse are cut smaller, and they might stand a better chance of fitting. Ya think? I'm getting the Rockboots as part of my kit anyway, however, so I still want to know about those.

FWIW, attached boots must be very different. The attached boots on my USIA drysuit (which I believe are size 11) fit in my XL Jets, although it can be a little bit of work getting them on and off. (Yes it's a bit too big for me even with many layers of socks, one reason why I'm getting a new drysuit.)

I wore a size 9 Rock Boot. Twin Jets - XL, Jet - XL, Atomic Split Fins - XL, new ScubaPro Twin Jets - L, Force fins - XL.

Hope this helps.

Wow....I felt that Twin jet XL is way bigger for a size 10 Rock boot...:confused:

I could not get my toes in enough to be comfortable with the large; almost an inch from the end. This was with a pair of Bare Rock Boots. I now dive a Pinnacle molded boot, that too requires an XL, but the Twin Jets are too large, I mostly dive the Jet fins. Still I can not get into a Large in the Twin Jets or the Atomics.

I wear a 12EE.
XXL Jetfins are my most comfortable method of transportation. My "feets" in a thin pair of booties will just barely fit into a pair of XXL Jets, while being tight, they are not so tight as to cause cramps in my feet.
If I had rock boots on I'd need fins with foot pockets big enough for a concrete block to fit into. Who makes fins with foot pockets that large???
