Review on Explore The Depths With Seavenger Voyager Snorkeling Fins/Flippers by Eric Teshome

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Very nice swim fins in Periwinkle Blue.

I ordered the small, for up to size 7. I wear a size 7.5, and these fit fine for me, they are soft, flexible and comfortable. I thought the medium might be a bit of a jump for me and be too large since they fit up to a 9. I like the shipping insert that helps to keep the fins well shaped during shipping or travel. Remember to remove this before you put them on, or they'll be uncomfortable. Keep the forms for storage and travel if you like, I'm going to do that so the foot bed and top arch stay well shaped when not in use. See photos 2 and 3. The clips are a bit stiff for my hands but otherwise the fins fit well are comfortable and are easy to put on, adjust and remove. I took a photo of the size embossed on the heel. I believe the European sizing is incorrect. I wear a 38 in European sizing, and this shows 40 as the top end of sizing, which I know is too big for me. I'm not sure what's going on with the interpretation of European sizing, but I've noticed an issue getting the story strait. You'll want to look at the US size for accuracy. 40 is around a 9.5 US. 41 is about a 10, and so on according to my real life experience. I've had issues with these sizes on line though. I hope that makes sense.The color is perfect, it's one of my favorite colors. Periwinkle Blue! Perfect. The materials are soft, flexible, no rubber or chemical scent/odor and strong. There are embossed treads on the soles of the fins as well. That's nice is you do have to push off rock or reef while snorkeling. Many times I've slipped when trying to push off. I like this compact size which will be better for boating, airline travel and packing purposes and they are long enough to be functional in the ocean as well. These fins are a bargain if they hold up over time. That's one thing I can't comment on. I'll update. These fins are as advertised. At the time of this review they are priced at just under 19 dollars including prime shipping. Great value.

Pros
  • Nothing look great
Cons
  • The lack of adjustable straps or clips means that the fins may not be suitable for people with wider or narrower feet, limiting their customer base
