I think they are great boots and have used for 4 seasons, 300+ dives. They show little real wear, though the rubber covering the front half of the boot is starting to detach. More cosmetic that anything else, and easily repaired. These boots are tough, really tough, and the ridge on the back heels is great for keeping the fin strap or steel springs in place. Would rate as perfect, if not for the following problem.

I have a large foot and wear the largest size boot. With my Mares Avanti Quattro fins, it's always been a snug fit. Have never been able to get my boot in as far as I wanted, and extremely difficult to remove in the water at the end of the dive. Of course, no worry of losing fins with a broken strap. [Other boots were never a problem.]

They will not fit into my new Atomic fins at all, though the opening width seems no different. Interior cut must be slightly different. Both these fins are pretty wide, so I think anyone buying the 2X-large is likely to have problems. I'm going to keep the Atomic fins and get a different brand boots. It's an easier solution that trying to find bigger fin pockets.
