This product did exactly what I wanted it to and that was to keep my full foot fins from rubbing. I tried them without for the first dive and was developing some hot spots, went to socks and it solved the problem.

Comments about Finis Finis "Lycra Skin Socks":

These socks are the best. I've had a pair for about 4 years now and they have become one of my all-time favorite dive accessories. Makes it easy to put on/ take off your wetsuit, and soothes your feet when wearing fins & booties. No more toe blisters! If you ever have foot discomfort while diving, you should try these.

Helps not only to put the booties on, but also wetsuit. Hope that after several dives bad smell coming out of my booties will become less intensive. And that was my main objective in making decision to purchase this item.

Comments about Finis Finis "Lycra Skin Socks":

A friend of mine told me about the socks because my boots were digging into my ankle. These are the best thing anybody could get even if your boots don't cut into you. They are lightweight and you can hardly feel them on you. Anytime somebody gets any boots for their fins they should buy a pair or two of these socks. They're the best.

Comments about Finis Finis "Lycra Skin Socks":

Pulling on wet booties after repetetive dives over a number of days get's to be a bit of a struggle; I pretty much destroyed my booties on a two week dive trip (and, after a lot of swearing).
A friend of mine had something similar to these on that trip and I swore I'd purchase a pair when I found them.
These serve that purpose - no longer struggling with wet booties, my new booties are still intact, and my fellow divers' ears no longer sting from my verbal tirades. All is at peace :)

Comments about Finis Finis "Lycra Skin Socks":

I needed something to prevent blisters on my heels from open foot fins worn with booties and this did the trick. Inexpensive, light, comfortable (didn't even know they were there), and no blisters at all. This DEFINITELY improved the diving experience since I am usually in the water diving or snorkeling and using fins for hours. Great product, I will not go diving or snorkeling without them again!

Comments about Finis Finis "Lycra Skin Socks":

if your toes get cut up from diving as my toes do, these are great. they are light weight, and better than regular socks. the salt water does not seem to affect them and they dry quickly.

Comments about Finis Finis "Lycra Skin Socks":

Good for preventing blisters with full-foot fins or booties. Better if they were a little longer and covered a bit more (1-2 inches) of the calf.

Comments about Finis Finis "Lycra Skin Socks":

I have full foot fins and they have a tab at the back to help you pull them on. When snorkeling all day, that tab will tear the skin off the back of my ankle. I have tryed other types of socks that did not work as well as these. I just got back from a trip to Venezuela where I spent three days in the water. These socks are the greatest. They even make the fins easier to put on.

Comments about Finis Finis "Lycra Skin Socks":

I always get a blister on the same spot on the same toe after 2 or 3 consecutive dives, and nothing helps. I wore the "skin socks" on a dive trip for a week, 11 total dives, and no blister! The seam is in a odd spot, but it didn't cause me any problems under my booties. They are sort of hard to keep track of and keep together, so I added a loop to the back, so I can clip them together for drying/storage.

Comments about Finis Finis "Lycra Skin Socks":

They were easy to put on and take off and they did prevent blisters, but after about 12 saltwater dives (4 days of diving) the back seams came apart and I had to hand sew them with that little sewing kit from the hotel, so... regretfully I am buying a 2nd pair and hoping for the best. It's a god thing they're cheap.

Comments about Finis Finis "Lycra Skin Socks":

These lycra socks are an inexpensive preventative solution to blisters on your feet. If you're in and out of the water all day and constantly wet, you know how easy it is to get blisters on your feet. That can ruin a dive trip. I've tried bandages, moleskin, etc. but they all come loose. My wife got a pair of polartec socks and they work but they're about $30 and didn't come in my size. I wear a size 15 and the large works. This is a must have on my pack list now.

Comments about Finis Finis "Lycra Skin Socks":

Ever since I saw dive buddy of mine wearing "dive socks" I have been looking for something like that in size 15. They are supposed to really help prevent blisters, especially when you're in the water all day.

REI has some long socks made from nylon, polyester and spandex with a fleece-like liner. They were too small but I also didn't like the long sock. My wife got some of those, however, and immediately noticed a difference.

So, now I got us each a pair of these lycra socks. We haven't worn them diving yet but they fit and feel great. They're light weight, take up hardly any space and are a stylish blue color.

I am looking forward to wearing them during our next Bonaire trip (in 3 weeks :)

These socks are great inside fins, they make it much easier to slip in and out of booties, and in and out of a wet suit.

A worthwhile buy, I'll buy them again
