Cute and Comfortable

I bought these fins for my 7 year old daughter for her first snorkeling experience. She wears a US girl size 13. They fit perfectly and she can easily put them on and take them off by herself. We haven't tried them in the water yet, but I'll update this review as soon as possible.

Pros
  • Industry Best
Cons
  • Crumpled Packaging

Great for teens with special needs

Purchased for teens with mobility/connected spinal cord, for pool use only. The adjustment is not difficult for him, sometimes he needs a little help. Glad they last longer than a season. Not too long and not too short gives him a little extra power without making him too confident to take too many risks. I think they're more for diving, but they're great for swim training.

Pros
  • Best
Cons
  • Expandable

Adult quality fins for sport

These are fantastic fins, just like the ones I dive with. My 5 year old granddaughter puts them on with no problem and walks pretty well. She swims very fast in the water. The presence of fins improved their swimming. The fins are made of softer material than adult fins and do not require diving boots. I'm so glad I found these fins for kids. I bought the next size up for my eight year old grandson

Pros
  • Comfortable to use
Cons
  • Not the best

after using the Quick-Fix function

Warning: does not spring open. Would have given 5 stars if it wasn't for the fit. My daughter is 10.5 and these puppies were in the tightest position. After 2 minutes in the water on Bonaire (our first mission!) one broke off and quickly sank to the bottom. (Sorry for the nonsense, Bonaire!) They both turned on correctly when using the excellent quick shot feature. Therefore, landing in the water was bad; They are great out of the water.

Pros
  • Excellent design
Cons
  • Negative impression

Falls apart almost immediately.

upon receipt of these fins they are of good quality. However, after the first use, the clips on both straps came off completely while my daughter went swimming. One was confiscated and the other was never found. Now they are useless. I hope that the manufacturer will either send us a new clip or better yet replace the entire product as there is no guarantee this will not happen again. This is so frustrating because it was a birthday present my daughter was looking forward to this summer.

Pros
  • practical item
Cons
  • so far so good

Great for picky kids!

I bought these for our 7 year old daughter and they really made our week in Clearwater Beach more enjoyable. Her remarkable efficiency in doing this allowed her to stay with us much longer without getting tired. She learned to snorkel and the next thing we knew was snorkeling for clams. Excellent quality and comfort. Be sure to explain to your child that they won't show up. I just watched her put them on and take them off until she got used to the process. The Cressis' thigh pockets are better…

Pros
  • Great overall performance
Cons
  • Doubtful

Incredible finning fun

Bought this for my 9 year old son. I remember how much fun I had swimming with fins when I was younger and he was able to experience the same thing with them. I like the adjustable healing band, easy to put on or take off and comfortable because it's made of the same flexible material. The colors stayed vibrant despite being sun dried - they held up too, which I think says a lot about the price. Would definitely recommend these fins at a great price for hours of pool fun!

Pros
  • Great for a small home
Cons
  • Questionable purchase for seniors

Conclusion - great fins!

My daughter uses this with her Cressi 'swim mask' every day in the pool and it has opened up a whole new underwater world for her which in turn has made her a MUCH stronger swimmer. It really helps her to push herself down to find things that she has struggled with on her own. She saw another child with her and wanted the couple to swim like a mermaid. We bought her the smallest size when she was 2 and in the tightest of circumstances they fit really well (she has size 7 toddler shoes). They…

Pros
  • Everything is fine!
Cons
  • Price

Swim faster and more efficiently

Bought these fins for my 9 year old son for winter swimming and I have to say they are much more efficient and effective compared to traditional style fins. I watched the boys train for an hour and while the other boys using traditional fins were fast I was amazed to see how fast my son was compared to other kids. At first I thought he was just fast but then after practice the parents came up to me and asked how my son got so fast and I said huh? I don't know, I just bought him a new set of…

Pros
  • Stylish and modern design
Cons
  • Slightly wrinkled
