Temporary fix for too big turbosoles

[ScoobaChef]

So I got a great deal on a used drysuit and it fits perfectly except for the feet. The turbosoles are way too big. I've got some foam wedged in the toes atm which makes it fit, but messes with my finning because my feet are no longer all the way in the fin pockets.

I'm getting them replaced soon, but does anyone have a better fix for the time being?

^Those are used and loved by many.

My question would be what are you wearing on your feet inside the Turbo Soles? I find the sock thickness I wear makes a difference. I wear the thickest socks I own, and a pair of 400g booties over the socks and I am locked into my fins!

I've got 4th element arctic booties and a pair of bedroom slippers underneath. Widthwise I'm fine, but they're a good 2" longer than my feet. I kinda think I need something behind my heel to keep my feet pushed forward, but I'm gonna try fin keepers tomorrow.

2" is way to big, sounds like you need to have them replaced sooner to me.

I use those fin keepers too... otherwise, part of my suit becomes my fin

What he said. Those things don't look like they would be any help, but they are are amazingly effective.

I thought drysuit boots one size too large would be a good idea, that it let my 2 sets of wool socks have some loft and be warmer. Maybe they are warmer but they sure as heck are a full size too large. Finkeepers have been a huge help for huge boots

Thanks everyone. They have since been replaced with the proper size.
