CAPAS Snorkel Fins, Swim Fins Travel Size Short Adjustable for Snorkeling Diving Adult Men Women Kids Open Heel Swimming Flippers

These are great calm water fins; low roller surf, pool trainers, short-trip snorkeling. They won't float and they won't displace enough water for strong propulsion. Absolutely wonderful starter kicks for young people, rehabbers or anybody getting back in the water. A pro or a jock won't want something so midrange and supple. I'm 5'5", 72 yrs, 260 lbs with a lot of leg, wrist, hand and spine surgeries; it's hard to bend and reach my big fat size 10-wide feet, so I put these on in the water against the side of the pool like slippers, then I bend head underwater to tighten the straps. These are absolutely wonderful. You can pull them tight as hell over wide swollen feet and they don't hurt. The release tab is a pain, though. Getting them off wasn't very well thought out, and barely do-able with the same contortions: The thing is, it CAN be done. That makes these attractive short fins an exceptional value. Shoe flips, floating and hard rubber, are almost impossible for those with spinal injuries and knee replacements, and non-adjustable open-heel types give you friction sores and hurt like hell, but this adjustable strap is supple, strong, very well configured, and awesome pulled tight. They did a great design job with how it fits on the back of your tendon...think of that if you're diabetic. No scuba socks! Wooohooo!

Tried these a couple of times and they seem to be the right thing for my swimming. I did have to learn how to use them, however. I tried to kick as fast as I usually do when free swimming. Got a cramp! Slows down your rhythm to a slower pace, which is fine with me. I'm a slow swimmer anyway and working my up to swim 1/2 mile consistently. It takes a little longer to swim but I'm training to do snorkeling in the future. Better to learn in a swimming pool before tackling a lake or ocean!

Those fins are great for travel, swimming pool training, snorkeling in calm ocean waters for a younger or older individual. A strong middle age man will find those a little weak for sport fishing , in rough water, where you rely 100% on leg power for propulsion (arm holding goody bags and spearfishing accessories) The fins are flexible and not as likely to give you leg cramps as scuba diving fins which are typically stiffer. The fit and comfort is adequate, barefoot and well as with sole-less booties. I am an older diver with 65 years diving experience and recently snorkeled for game in the colder waters of the northern pacific coast of the USA . The waves were small 3 to 5 feet in a semi protected cove with moderate surge. The fins gave me adequate power without any cramping, (which is why I purchased them in the first place ) . So in conclusion, those fins work fine for low to moderate snorkeling conditions. For the more challenging environment find one more catered to your ability and fitness level. Happy snorkeling!

Solid purchase. On my second pair. First ones lasted over six .months of daily use! Once broken in these are comfortable and fit wider feet well. No sore spots or blisters and most of all, enough space for 'high arch'/'thick' feet. Solid build quality and provides great balance for upper/lower body workout in the lap pool. Would recommend!

I was looking for a light weight travel friendly fin to do some casual snorkeling while on vacation & these are perfect for that! My recent trip to Xcaret Mexico allowed me to test them in several different lagoons, cenotes a beach & they performed flawlessly! The fins are true to size, can fin in a checked bag or even medium sized back pack, are easy to adjust, comfortable to wear (even without swim socks), easy to walk short distances in & despite their smaller size provide enough propulsion for your basic snorkeling needs. Some people mentioned that they came off their feet easily while swimming, I am not sure why they had problems but I had zero issues in that regard. Two things to note, when you are adjusting the heel straps be sure to adjust both sides on each foot simultaneously so that the wide part of the strap is centered on the back of your heel & the strap is putting even pressure across the back of the heel for the best fit & comfort & as with other fins be sure to get the inside wet prior to slipping them on.

Quality appears good! Will know after use in several weeks

These fins are perfect for lap swimming

I loved the idea of these short fins! I purchased them for "traveling" so they would fit in a suitcase and be more convenient when carrying them around on the beach for snorkeling. They met that goal! (5 star) I am use to using Atomic split fins or other normal size (longer) fins for snorkeling. These shorties, as i call them, do work BUT not as good as normal size fins! It takes much more leg work to propel yourself through the water and at times when i was in stronger current or choppy water, i sometimes felt i wasn't making much progress. (2-3 stars). The energy i used to propel myself forward caused me to have to stop and rest more often and i am very experienced. I had first timers with me and i am glad i brought the normal size fins and had my inexperienced family use those. Normal fins propel you through the water faster with less energy spent. I would NOT recommend short fins for unexperienced people in any type of current/choppy water. I don't feel it wound be an enjoyable experience and in my opinion it is not safe if in current/choppy water. Honestly, even in calmer waters, it still takes double the kicking to propel yourself through the water when compared to normal size fin (2-3 stars). I was needing to supply 4 people with full snorkel gear (that's alot to lug around) so i am still glad i bought these shorties. They are super easy packing, carrying, storing (5 Star). But i do think if you only have to carry around 1 set for yourself, normal size is still the way to go. Overall, i think i would give them a 3star but not sure if that is fair because they are shorties, and they just aren't going to work like normal size fins

Great product, we used it a lot whilst away in the Maldives and found them to be easy to use, comfortable and very effective for snorkelling around and seeing the amazing sights. We are average swimmers and these gave us more confidence and a chance to snorkel much more. They can be adjusted and tightened to improve the fit and the visibility with them is great. We loved using them. Customer service has been excellent, very good communication, quick to respond and very happy to resolve our query. Brilliant.

Muy cómodas y efectivas. Un poco grandes, pero mueven tela de agua.

Buen producto.

Waren damit in Spanien schnorcheln und Tauchen. Haben sie aus Gewichts Gründen neben einem andern Paar zur Gewichtsersparnis geholt statt noch n großes Paar mitzunehmen. Top verarbeitet, einfach in der Größe einstellbar. Hatten sie in S/M geholt und haben uns beiden mit den Größen 36 und 43 gepasst :D Hat sich auf jeden Fall gelohnt und wir hatten n Tolles Tauch Erlebnis damit und im Fluggepäck viel Platz und Gewicht gespart 😇😇 Ind um sich im Wasser ein bisschen entspannt fortzubewegen zum Fische anschauen reicht die Größe trotzdem easy :)

I tried many other. This is my best. Light material and it helped me alot in the pool. Love them
