I bought a pair of XL Scubapro Jets and had to resell them as my CTs were too wide to fit in the fin. My buddy has a pair of XXL Jets that he uses with his CTs and they are a bit loose according to him. There is a huge difference between XL and XXL Jets when you compare them side by side. Hope this helps.

Ah, thanks for that piece of info. I tried with just the socks and the fins with no booties and they were a bit lose as well with the XL's. :confused: I don't what I will do. I do like this idea of the chucks though. They seem to be thinner. Don't cost much, I wonder just how durable the drysuit socks are? They feel really thick.
 
I have the pinnacle rock boots and I love them. They're very easy to put on over my Hollis dry suit. They also have a nice lip on the heel that i can pull my springstrap over and keep my fins in place when diving. I was in 35 degree water on new years and had 2 pairs of socks (including wigwam 40 below socks) under my drysuit and they still fit comfortably.
 
I went with bigger wetsuit booties. I have size 13 feet, and couldn't find rock boots that would fit into any fins that my LDS had in stock (other than jets, I didn't want jets, I like my Mares fins, and would have gone with something similar) so I tried wetsuit booties (they ended up being size 14)

I physically took my suit to the shop and tired a whole bunch of options, and that's what I liked the best. If someone makes larger fins I'd like to know!
