Product Description
 
Traditional Design! There’s a reason U.S. Military Personnel have made IST’s exclusive F1 Deep Sea Scuba Diving Military Rubber Rocket Fins their choice time after time. IST puts it all together in a no-nonsense fin: fit, style, speed, thrust, propulsion, power and price. The F-1’s special blade curvature and tapered blade flexibility produces super-positive thrust and unheard-of flexibility. Even more thrust is attained by 3 deep vents which force water backwards, emulating the effect of three synchronized water jets.

The F-1 is excellent for open water dive missions, but also shows its skill in assisting diver- maneuverability within confined spaces. As you would expect and demand of a military fin, the F-1 is durable and long-lasting; compatible with IST’s famous Universal clamp stainless steel coil spring fin strap.

Time after time, U.S. Military personnel, and the U.S. Navy call on Seavenger to deliver their fin of choice, the F1. Find out why for yourself!

Question with the rocket fin's, can you wear neoprene socks? Or is it better to wear the boots with the rocket fins.
Answer It's better to wear the boots with the rocket fins.


Question I wear a size 8 in boots. I know you have a size chart but I am not sure what I will need for this Style fin (Rubber rocket). What size fin would you recommend for a size 8 and what size booties what you recommend? Along with this do you wear boots with these fins or just booties? Thanks
Answer If by boots, you mean high cut booties with a toe and heel cap, you would take a size XL. Or, if you mean a thinner low cut neoprene small bootie without toe cap, you would take a size L in this fin. Either way, you can wear a small or large bootie.


Question I need a pair of these for pararescue training. I wear a 12.5 shoe. What size fins and boots should I get? And brand of boot?
Answer http://seavenger.com/classic-open-heel-with-larger-foot-pocket-p-1173.html

Your foot size will not fit the fin you reference; we recommend the above fin which has a bigger foot pocket, size XXL. We also recommend a big bootie with toe cap size 12. Here are examples of boots that sound like they would work:

http://seavenger.com/65mm-titanium-vulcanized-sole-with-toe-heel-caps-p-1328.html


Question I just got my order in the mail and these fins are VERY wide. Should they be so wide? Or do I need to go down a size? I'm size 9 and I got the XL because my booties are thick.
Answer We recommend a size XL if you are a size 9 and using big booties with a big toe cap and thick sole. If the size 9 is loose on you, you may want to exchange them for a size L, or consider a boot such as this if yours are not as substantial:

Question I am having trouble finding Shipping charge to Area Zip Code 75838 Donie Texas.
Do you have fin's for child size 11-13 for 5 year old.
Answer http://seavenger.com/sea-diver-classic-rubber-swimming-scuba-diving-fins-p-179.html
We have these fins, closed heel versions of what you were looking at, with an open toe, and super comfortable. Size 4XS would fit child size 11-13. Here are your shipping options for Texas, 75838.
Flat Rate Shipping (2-7 business days) (Best Way) $9.95
USPS USPS (Priority Mail: Estimated 2 - 4 Days) $17.05
FedEx FedEx (Overnight (Morning)) $44.25
FedEx FedEx (2 Days) $26.80
FedEx FedEx (3 Days) $21.61
FedEx FedEx (Ground Home Delivery) $16.51


Question I wear a size 9 in boot. What size should I wear in fins?
Answer If you are wearing big booties with a big toe cap, then we recommend size XL. If you are wearing small booties, without a lot of toe and soul, then we recommend size L.


Question I'm looking at purchasing these fins to use with my float tube to fly fish. I plan to put the fins over my stocking foot waters (no boot) and I wear a size 11 shoe. Will this fin work over my stocking foot waders and what size should I purchase.
Answer We don't carry stocking foot waders, but from what we can tell from research, the stocking foot is like a neoprene sock and, if so, the size XXL should accommodate the fin and stocking foot in your size.


Question What is the difference between the big and small booties?
I wear a 9, 9.5 in shoes so what size fin and what size booty would you recomend?
Also when you order the fins do the booties come with it?
Answer We recommend an XL in the fin, and L in the bootie.


Question I'm going to order a pair of the Short Rocket Fins this week along with a pair of boots with rubber soles. I like the 3mm Low cut tropical boots on your web site. My feet measure 10.5" long. What size should I order in the 3mm Low Cut Boots and what size should I order in the Short Rocket Fins.

Thanks

Steven Hanson
Answer We recommend size XXL in the fins, and XL in the booties.


Question I would like to order the F1 fins for my son who is leaving for BUDS in August. He wears a 10 shoe. If I'm looking at this right I need to order him the XXL fin. What bootie would you recommend for these fins?
Answer We recommend the XXL size for him. As for booties, here are two very sturdy choices:
http://seavenger.com/5mm-titanium-8in-height-cold-water-scuba-diving-p-1301.html
http://seavenger.com/5mm-titanium-vulcanized-sole-with-toe-heel-caps-p-264.html


Question Are boots required for adjustable strap fins or would I be ok to go barefoot?
Answer Yes, you will need boots or socks with adjustable strap fins.


Question I wear a large aqualung rocket fin. What size would you recommend for this fin?
Answer If you scroll down under the product photo and product description, there is a size chart to show you what size you would wear with booties.


Question I am looking for fins to fit over size 11 and size 12 Manta 6.5mm Deep See boots. What do you recommend? How do these fins compare with Aqua Lung Rocket II?
Answer If you are using this for the military, we get lots of orders for this fin. Also, you would take a XXL size.


Question I wear a size 12 do these fin fit over combat boots,
if so what size should I get?
Answer This fin that your looking at, the biggest size is a XXL, and we have tried to fit a size 11 boots in it, and it is way too small, So a size 12 will not fit, Here is a very similar one,

http://seavenger.com/classic-open-heel-with-larger-foot-pocket-p-1173.html

This one is same as the one your looking at, but this one is a lot bigger in size, a XL for this will fit a size 12 boots, if you think your boots are very thick, then i would recommend a size XXL for this one.


Question Im trying to get some fins and booties for training for the navy, what size and kind of booties and fins would i need if i wear a size 11 shoe
Answer You will need a XXL if you are going to get the big booties with toe caps, if you are wearing small booties, then a XL will do,

Thanks,

Even though I've only been swimming with these twice, I can already feel how great these fins improve my speed without fins. At first, my ankles hurt after 500m in the pool and it took me a long time to swim the distance since they are reasonably heavy. Yet, the second time I jumped in the pool, my ankles weren't hurting as bad and I was going much faster. Of course I wear socks instead of boots. Overall, these are great for improving speed, cardio, and muscular strength. I look forward to more swims with these in the future.

So far so good. I am taking a UTD technical diving certification, and they are very particular about the equipment used. They were very impressed with the quality as well as the affordable price.

For all those traditionalist out there, why change something that still works? These Rocket fins are still a favorite among many dive professionals, and they last forever!

I bought two pairs of these fins.One set for me and the other for my son for an abalone dive trip.They were to replace my now 20 plus year old jet fins which I loved and hated to get rid of.The new fins worked great and fit nicely.Actually fit better the my old "one size fits all" by Scuba Pro.Very manueverable with good thrust when needed.Much like the military uses in rescues,etc. My son also agreed and said they were much better then the longer,stiffer fins for freediving.The straps could be a little more beefy,but all in all a great fin for the money.I'm 63 years old and have had well over 400 freedives and tanking.This was my sons(24yo) first abalone dive.We both did great using these fins.They are a good affordable all around fin.
