Shopper How long are these fins? What size should I order for a size 10--11 shoe?
BEN M My son wears a 9.5 shoe and we got him the 9-11 and it seemed to fit fine dry with a 3 mm neoprene sock. We have yet to try them out but they seem like they will work for him. Length is approximately 25"
For those with larger feed I wear a size 15 shoe, I ordered the 12-13 and it seems to fit just fine dry. The 12-13 fins I bought are about 25.5" long.
RUSSELL G i ordered the large and they are a little loose with no neoprene sock underneath. i wear a size 11 mens in all my shoes. it was strange because the size chart says large is for size 10-11
RICHARD M THE FULL FOOT TUSA FF-19 SPLIT MEASURES 25 INCHES FROM TIP TO BACK OF THE HEEL IN A STRAIGHT LINE ALONG THE UNDERSIDE. IT MEASURES 26 INCHES ALONG THE TOP OF THE FIN BECAUSE OF THE BLADE ANGLE. THIS FIN IS ONE INCH SHORTER THAN THE FULL FOOT OCEANIC CARIBE, AND THE FULL FOOT SNAP FINS THAT I OWN. THEY ARE BOTH PADDLE FINS. ALL THREE HAVE THE SAME BLADE ANGLE AND ARE ALMOST EXACTLY THE SAME BLADE WIDTH.
I HAVE A SIZE 12 FOOT AND WEAR THE XL 12-13 FINS BARE FOOT. THE TUSA FF-19 IS A PERFECT FIT FOR MY FOOT. YOU SHOULD ORDER THE SIZE 10-11 FIN UNLEES YOU ARE WEARING A THIN RUBBER SOCK. THE FOOT ON THE FF-19 IS A LITTLE BIT SMALLER THAN THE OCEANIC CARIBE AND THE TUSA FF-9.
I HAVE NOT HAD A CHANCE TO TRY THE FINS IN THE WATER YET - THEY ARE CLEARLY WELL MADE AND SEEM TO BE THE EVOLUTIONARY NEXT STEP FOLLOWING THE FF-9 SPLIT FIN. BETTER MATERIALS, QUALITY AND CONSTRUCTION WHILE BEING BASICALLY THE SAME DESIGN. THE FIN IS ALMOST AS SOFT AS THE FF-9 WHICH FELT LIKE WEARING NOTHING ON MY FEET - EFFORTLESS - WHILE BEING THE FASTEST FINS I OWNED. FASTER THAN THE OCEANIC CARIBE AND SNAP FINS - WHICH WERE RATED AS VERY FAST.
I BOUGHT THE FF-19 TO REPLACE A 6 YEAR OLD PAIR OF TUSA FF-9 SPLITS THAT TORE ALONG THE UPPER BOOT WITHOUT WARNING THIS SUMMER. THE FF-9 WAS A TERRIFIC FIN FOR BOTH DIVING AND SNORKELING - READ THE REVIEWS. I WAS GOING TO GET ANOTHER PAIR. THE FF-19 SHOULD BE AN IMPROVED VERSION OF IT. I HAVE A BAD KNEE - AND CAN NOT USE A REALLY STIFF FIN. I EXPECT THE FF-19 TO BE SOFT, COMFORTABLE, EFFORTLESS, AND FAST LIKE THE FF-9 WAS. THE FF-19 IS EASY ON AND EASY OFF - HAS HEEL TABS AND A GOOD RIBBED SOLE TO AVOID SLIPPING. AN EXCELLENT VALUE.
I HOPE THIS ANSWERS YOUR QUESTIONS - BUY IT - SIZE 10-11 - YOU WILL LOVE IT - GREAT PRICE.- SHOULD BE A GREAT PERFORMER.

L T I own the fins and they are the same standard size as my non full fit split fins. The fins fit true to shoe size as outlined on the Tusa site or Liesure pro.
MICHELE G They aren't as long as most fins (which are perfect for me because I only do carry-on) - they fit in my 22" bag. I have a small foot (size 5.5) so I cannot tell you what size to get for your shoe size. On a side note, these were quite comfortable when I used them in the Caymans (diving) and suited me very well.
Brett H In the size lg they are 25" long and for your foot size lg would probably fit the best.
LARRY D They are about 23 inches or so long will not fit in standard carry on bag size luggage . Fit true to size I wear a size 8 dress shoe and size 8 in the fin fits well
