Comments about Aeris Aeris Velocity Full Foot Fins:

These were the fins I purchased from my LDS when I first started my certification class 10 years ago. I've been diving with them 2-3 times a year ever since and they still work great.

I've used them in cold water and warm, for drift dives, shore dives, cave dives, and boat dives, as well as for snorkeling and body surfing.

I always wear them with my dive boots, and find they're extremely comfortable. They don't rub or pinch in any way, I've never gotten any blisters or tenderness even after multiple days of diving.

The bright yellow color is highly visible under water, which makes it easy for my dive partner to spot me out of the group, or in poor viz.

They're not as powerful or fancy as some of the more experienced divers I see on the boat, but they've met my needs perfectly.

Comments about Aeris Aeris Velocity Full Foot Fins:

These fins surprised me. I bought them at a closeout price. When I first opened them, I thought the angle of the fin was too much. They are not flat like many fins are. The rubber did not look pristine to my eyes. However, when I put them on and used them... wow! These fins really make me move through the water fast. The fit was very comfortable. I have read others say to buy them small, but I bought them for my size and thought they fit perfectly. I do not like full footed fins like these to squeeze my feet. The size was very comfortable and stayed on my feet while swimming just fine. However, I could easily fit in the next size smaller if I wanted a tighter fit.

I liked these so much, I ordered severl more for when I have friends visit. Then after that, some neighbors tried them out in the pool and loved them, so I ordered yet four more pairs. These are great fins.

rubber foot seems quite substantial/flexible and should last quite a while

Love the comfort. I wear 14 shoes and these in 12-13 fit perfect, so I checked the box saying they were bigger than as marked. They are not powerful but super light for travel. Beware: replace them at the first sign of rubber degradation before they split at the toe or arch. You'll still get your money's worth.

Good Quality and are perfect for warm water snorkeling.

I've spearfished in lakes with my old Velocities for 5-6 years. They are still good despite having to patch a couple of heel splits with Shoe-Goo last year. They are quick and effortless allowing long swims without any leg fatigue. Provide best surface swimming of any fins tried. Split fins, jets, stiff blades, hinged blades - all require much more effort and quickly tire my legs or hurt my ankles. Since they have no buckles, they never drag seaweed or other debris; but the holes in the blades sometimes get caught on small fixed objects.

he product is an excellent compromise for traveling -- very good for snorkeling but I prefer a larger fin for diving.

Bought these for trip to BVIs as a complement to my SCUBA fins. Used them off a boat and shore just to snorkel. Very comfortable and moved nicely through the water. Were a little limp for my taste but I never got a cramp or got tired. I'd buy again and recommend.

Comments about Aeris Aeris Velocity Full Foot Fins:

This is a good fin for snorkeling; I used it for three weeks out in Maui this year. It probably does not have enough "oomph" (propulsion)to be suitable as a SCUBA fin, especially if you need to swim against any currents.

I have a pair, my daughter has a pair, and I have purchased this pair for my wife.
These are excellent warm water reef diving fins.
They are so responsive that I can feel a significant difference between these and 2 other pairs I own. I feel like a fish with these on.

Comments about Aeris Aeris Velocity Full Foot Fins:

We used these several times on vacation in the carribean and loved them. Size is very true to fit and loved how little work we had to do to move with these fins. The best I've had for the money. Would definetly recommend to others.

this is the first pair of fins i've ever purchased, and i use them for snorkeling and swimming in oceans and rivers. the full foot is very comfortable and the pair are light weight, which has made them good for travel. i purchased the size Small and I normally wear a women's size 7.5 shoe.

Very efficient and comfortable fins.

Comments about Aeris Aeris Velocity Full Foot Fins:

I'm a size 9 in mens shoes and the 9/10 size fits perfect when I wear either 2mm or 3mm sock like booties; without the booties they still fit well but with a bit of slop. I bought these from a LDS as replacements when I lost one of my SP Twinjets to the ocean. I was so happy with them I bought a second pair as my backup/loaner set. I snorkel about 5 times a week and commonly swim 1-2 miles in a session and I have no complaints about these fins; which I can not say about every other fin I've tried.

I have not used these for scuba, but I don't think they would be good for it. They do work okay for light free diving (been down to about 40fsw with them).

Got these for warm water Scuba to lighten the gear I bring on Caribbean trips and leave the boots at home. I found that they did not provide the propulsion needed to conserve energy. My legs felt fatigued toward the end of a 45-50 minute dive.

Comments about Aeris Aeris Velocity Full Foot Fins:

LOVE THE FINS, VERY COMFORTABLE, FAST, AND LIGHTWEIGHT, REQUIRES MINIMAL EFFORT. I AM NO EXPERT BY NO MEANS BUT I FEAL LIKE A HEAVIER PERSON OR HEAVY GEAR WOULD REQUIRE A STIFFER FIN. AND MAYBE NOT. LIKE I SAID, I AM NOT A PRO. FINS DO FLEX A LOT WITHOUT ANY GEAR. USER WEIGHS 185 LBS.

These are very nice fins--they do provide a bit of speed and you could kick around in them all day long. But if you have strong legs and a stong kick, they are too flexible. I wish I would have bought a stiffer type. These are fine for recreational use, but why not go with something a bit more challenging?Maybe I am too picky?They move me where I want to go, and with speed if I want it. They are good for snorkling, and excellent for body surfing. Side kick is very good. My dolphin kick with these fins is excellent--I can get some speed out of them, but I suspect this also has to do with the fact that I am slim and have a storng kick. I feel I might get better results with stiffer fins.The angle of the fin to the foot is striking, and at first I was skeptical, but this didn't seem to be a factor when I had them in the water. According to someone I talked too, this angle is supposed to help people who don't point their toes straight enough. Not an issue for me.I checked on-line and these fins have received good reviews. They have received at least one "best buy" award. These reviews are why I bought them (and the fact I got them at a very good price).If you can get a good deal--buy them. Otherwise, I am not so sure. I have heard some reports that earlier production runs of these fins had some difficuties with the foot tearing. I also heard--from the manufacturer, actually--that the problem had been corrected.[*]

I wear a women's size 8 shoe and found the fin size 7-8 (MD) too large and had to reorder the next smaller size.
