Does anyone wear booties while wearing full foot pocket fins? I tried to and horrible foot cramps.
 
You might want to try socks instead of booties. They are very comfortable if you get the right size.
 
You need to wear the wetsuit socks or booties without soles in closed heel fins -you should try fins on with them when you buy if you did not you can get 1.5mm wetsuit socks that may still be OK your cramps may have been from too tight a fit ? I dived yesterday and today and got cramps because I left socks at home and feet got cold or fins were too loose -silly enough to forget yesterday but today as well:( also got my foot bashed by gun when a wave drove it into my foot on the rocks after I got out a bit of neoprene would have softened the blow.
