I wear a size 10 in the instadry boot, and purchased a size M fin. The fin pocket fits perfectly, however the spring strap is a bit tight. I understand the springs are available in 2 different lengths. I guess my question would be, do the medium fins come stock with the shorter of the 2 springs? If so I'm thinking I may have to swap them out for the longer springs. Or do the springs perhaps "relax" a bit after use?
If anyone has any information on this I'd very much appreciate it.
Thankyou,
Johnny
Just out of curiosity, what size shoe do you wear? I wear size 11 in shoes such as New Balance and I typically wear a size 10.5 in dress shoes (i.e. thinner socks). Anyway, I just ordered size 10 Insta Dry boots and I am keeping my fingers crossed that they will fit.

I ordered the 7mm ones and I am hoping to get them into my Size L BioFins. But, if my luck is the same as CompuDude's, I will replacing either my spring straps or fins (with LL) in the near future.
