I recently tore both of my beloved Jetfins. I can't find replacements anywhere. Merry and I each have XXL Jetfins, but mine have large pockets, about 4 1/2" square. Are these available anywhere?

You might want to consider the Hollis F1s instead. They're stiff and negative, but with larger pockets.

The old XXL is now the 3XL.
They needed a new size right in between the XL and old XXL, so they made the old XXL into the 3XL and now the new XXL is a new size. I’m considering getting a pair.
The enormous foot pocket of the original XXL was originally developed for the military to accommodate a size 15 combat boot.
I’ve tried Hollis F1’s and didn’t like them. If you’re thinking of those, borrow a pair first and see if you like then before buying them.
The other fins that are similar and also have a good size foot pocket are the Turtles. They’re a tad shorter but also a tad wider. I have those too and like them just as much as my Jets.

Thanks Eric. I saw Jon Davies this morning and he will order some 3XLs tomorrow.
