I have aquired a "new" used drysuit, a 2007 Bare Tech HD ATR Trilam with size 2X boots attached. Anyone using Jet or Turtle fins? If so, what size to fit these boots? LDS does not carry these fins so tryout is impossible. Thanks in advance!
 
Jet fins have more sixes, Turtles only come in massive, other than that they are very much the same.

I believe that Hollis Gear makes a fin similar, but it looks to be more comfortable, and the dsign isn't 40 years old
 
I use a 2xl turtle fin, with my drysuit. I find the XL sizes from both companies are about the same size and a little tight for my boots. The 2xl jet fins have a very, very large foot pocket, that is both tall and wide and almost everyone I know who have tried them say they are way too big, the turtle fins seem to work much better. I have seen the Hollis fins and like them a lot just have too many fins in the garage to buy yet another pair, but I have heard good things.
