Hm.

I can't tell if those would fit or not. They look very similar to the Deep Sea booties that I got to fit, but they also look very similar to Scubapro's newest "sneaker" bootie, which does not fit at all.

If I were in your place - and I was until making this decision - then I would find a shop that sells Jets and a variety of booties and sit down and try some things on. Or... I would bring my own Jets into a shop and try a variety of booties.

Good luck with this. Sorry I can't be of any more help. I can tell you, however, that it's possible to get the right combination of bootie and Jet fin that will make you very happy. :)
 
I'm sure it's all completely personal, i.e., depends on the size and shape of your foot etc., but the Henderson Goldcore boots work perfectly for me. They prevent the wobbling I got with other boots but do not cramp my toes. I use the low tropic boots, but they make high ones as well. On spring straps, I was told they should not be sized to remain stretched once pulled past the heel or the pressure on the achilles tendon would be painful. I have a secure fit without any spring tension.
 
LP's already out of stock.

Or ScubaPro is playing some little waffle game and hasn't stocked them yet.

ScubaPro: We don't sell online.
LP: C'mon.
ScubaPro: No, we don't do it.
LP: C'mon.
ScubaPro: No.
LP: C'mon.
etc.
 
I had a size 11 Rock boot, and the XL jets didnt fit. I then sent my suit in to get the boots switched over to turbo soles. Guess what, XL jets still didnt fit me. Now, I dont know if the XXL jets will be too big. When I dive wet, Im all set, they fit fine (Deep See EchoZip boots, or Henderson GOld booties, both fit, both size 11).

Hey, did anyone get a price on the XXL jets???
 
Uncle Pug:
XL Jets won't fit my size 10 rock boots.

I have been trying to get to Spokane to try exactly that, as my Turtles are somewhat big on my new rock boots.
Bummer.

I’m jealous. Mine are not in yet and I did not have them for my dives this past weekend.

Still Waiting……….

Thanks for the correction Uncle Pug, that is actually what I meant.
 
padivers:
I have a pair of XL sp just bought them two weeks ago that i would trade you they may fit your rock boots better as i need the XXL sp to fit my bare dry suit.

I think I am going to try playing around with them some more before I decide to change them out of not.
