Hi all, I have a set of Rob Allen Couta fins and was wondering if, with summer approaching, they're safe to leave in the car during the day, or if I should be bringing them into work on training days?
 
In brizzy? I'd probably say take them indoors unless you're parked in shade. It'll get DAMN HOT otherwise.
 
Fair enough, thanks mate.
And it does get damned hot, 50+ in a parked car on a bad day, just wondering if they'd hold up. Not that it's a big issue when it comes to protecting your gear.
 
I'd take them out too to be on the safe side - having grown up in a hot country, I know how hot cars get especially if left in the sun - lots of materials don't hold up well in those temperatures.
