The fins look basically identical, and Aqualung owns Apeks. But the Aqualung fins cost a quarter to a half less. Anybody know why?
 
The Apeks RK3 and the Aqualung Rocket II are the same fin except that the RK3 comes with the upgrade of a spring strap. Checking prices right now on Google, the Rocket II appears to be running around $140-$150 while the Apeks RK 3 appears to be running from $150-$175. The higher price for the RK3 is for the spring strap.

Great, thanks! I actually don’t like spring straps, so that’s a no brainer for me then.
