Selling a pair of XXL jets.
I don't use them anymore since I went back to wetsuit diving.
They have GIANT foot pockets. The spring straps were made buy one of the very first DIR/GUE divers in Southern California before spring straps were even available commercially. These fins will never wear out, they will last for the lifetime of 3 divers. They are the most rugged fins ever made.

Asking $75 for three fins...yes, three fins. I'll throw in an extra XXL fin just so you have a backup in case you ever lose one.
Buyer pays shipping.

I can take Visa or M/C over the phone through my regular business.
Sorry, I'm not set up to take Paypal.

Are they still of sale? If so will a size 11 rockboot fit? I'll take them if so..

They are still for sale, but I think a size 11 is too small.
I have a size 13 foot and I have to wear a 6.5 mil sock with a size 15 High Tide Ranger boot pulled over and they are still too floppy.

From what was explained to me, the older XXL jets were designed to go over a size 15 combat boot that would be the biggest that a Navy Seal would wear, and when they would do a beach landing and they would lose the fins and be ready for a ground assault.

I just checked with my LDS today and they confirmed that SP does indeed have a new size between the old XL and XXL, which will be the premium size for larger feet in regular dive booties.
 
I use mine with size 11 boot with my dry suit. A bit loose but not bad.
 
What a dilemma I have a size 11 rock boot and Xl jet fins which are to small for the boot. I hadn't heard about the size difference in the older jet fins..
I'll call DUI for confermation on size...

I'll get back to you...
