Exclamation I wanted something like jetfins - HELP!

My shoe size is women 7 or men 5 1/2. I have a pair of small feet. Scubapro jetfins' smallest size is medium and it's too big for my feet. Is there any fins similar to jetfins that may fit? I am currently using small Apollo biofins, but I have been wanting to get jetfins - hope you guys can help me out!

Thanks!

I would suggest XS Scuba power fins. Now that link is to scuba.com and I would not recommend buying from scuba.com. I just knew that they would have them on their site. They are supposed to be just like the Jet fins, jsut that you can get them in a smaller size. Scubatoys can get XS Scuba gear all you have to do is ask. I have bought several XS scuba things from them that were not on their website. They will at least match scuba.com's price or beat it. Well they will do that for what ever the lowest price is that you find on them.

I hope that help a little.

Have you tried on the medium jet fins, or are you going by their size chart that they are too big? If you really want that style of fin, you could try changing to a thicker boot or one with a more chunky sole to fill the fin out more. I had to do that to accomodate my current fins (aqualung rockets--a similar style to the jets) and it worked perfectly.

Have you tried thicker (hardsole) booties? Medium Jets are pretty tiny... I don't know many people that fit them, other than children.

Per this chart, which show Medium Jets fitting Mens size 4-6, Jets should fit you no problem: Jetfin Comparison Page

Or are you trying to use them barefoot?
