I'm looking to try a set of the D6 "Thick Boots" for use with my socked drysuit (Aqualung Fusion).

In street shoes, I typically wear a US 9. Wet, I wear size 9 Aqualung 5mm Safe-Sole Ergos. For the drysuit, I purchased a set of the same AL SS Ergos in size 10 and they fit fine with my under-socks and the DS socks.

There is one comment on the "Thick Boots" that says they run small. I'm hoping for more stability from the D6 boots so I don't want to just "go large" to be safe. Looking for some additional feedback on real world sizing of these - do they run true enough that I need a "10" or so small that I'll need an "11"?


Once that is nailed down, what is the smallest Eddy Fin that will reasonably work with that size Thick Boot, so I can also hopefully use them with my wet boots?

@LandonL , @cerich - what have you discovered on the sellers-end?

Thanks, All
 
10 and the xl is what I would recommend, you may shove them in a large but they will be a serious pita to get foot out

@cerich : So,

12 mens shoe, what for wet?

What for a DUi cf200 w/ sock feet, and "BULKY" Santi quilted socks? (Great Lakes cold water and ice diving) - replacing my DUI Rock Boots....
 
@cerich I have a lot of trouble finding dive boots that fit but love the looks of your rock boots for diving wet in Bonaire. Looking for a firm fit to provide stability and ankle support over uneven ground.

Any chance your size 5 boot would fit a women’s size 6 foot?

Maybe, either way it isn't expensive to find out. lol
