OMS Slipstream fit question

Hello,

I have a fitting question regarding an XL Slipstream fins. The top pocket edge digs into the top of my foot where it forms the 90 degree bent between my ankel and shin. Are these fins too big? I'm wearing a size 9 Deep See Safe Sole in 6.5mm.

Thanks in advance.

They probably are a little big, the best way to show is to post a picture.

Take it by the shop, Karim can probably confirm.

I wear size 9 InstaDry booties (on my 9.5 feet) with XL slipstreams and don't have a problem with it.

That's even a better idea!

Mine occasionally dig in there, the next size down fin is too small so I just usually double up on socks in my drysuit regardless of the weather.
