question on force fin sizing...

[synonymy13]

im planning to buy a pair of force fin pros... and im planning to buy a pair of booties as well... i decided that im getting the Tusa Imprex 5MM Neoprene Boots... and i wear a size 11... i was wondering if this boot would classify as a hard sole boot...

since the force fin size chart says that i should get an xl for a soft sole boot, and an xxl for a hard sole boot.. for my shoe size ofcors...

any1 with the same size foot as me, and a typically same style of bootie im about to buy, ur input would be much appreciated...

I would consider them hard-soled booties.

I have XLs for my 3mm booties and XXL for my drysuit boots.

I am a size 9 here in the UK, which I think is similar to your size.

I use a pair of Pro Force fins. I have a wide foot ( 10.5 EE) and cannot wear a hard sole boot with the force fin. It pinches my feet on the side. I use a pair of Henderson Gripper Zipper boots since they have a lower profile on the sides. I would go with the larger size and use the neoprene inserts made by Force Fin if need be.
