No i am in a disperate need of a pair of Pathos footpockets but i have the size issue.....
I would prefer the 44/46 with thinner socks if they fit but everyone is telling me to buy the 46/48, but I would hate them if they are really big and i have to use 5mm socks.

Any comments.

OMER Millenium foot pockets 41-42 (with Special Fins)
US size 8 or 225 in Asia
I have a pair of Arena (just random pool swim fins) of the same (41-42) size, which fit like gloves. The OMER are a bit loose, and rub badly on the back of my heels without socks.

Pathos 42-44
My foot is 42.5-43 wide, high arch and low instep. The Pathos footpocket seems to be quite wide but length is good. I have to wear a 5mm sock to keep the footpocket in place.

Hi all,
been reading this thread with much interest and I'm hoping one of you can help me out to find the best footpocket for my feet.
I've got the following sizes:
Length: US 8.5 / 26cm
Width: 4.33 inch / 11cm
Narrow/normal heel
High arch
5mm fin sock
The OMER Stingray 9/10 - 43/44 fits but it feels a bit uncomfortable. Anyone got any suggestions please?
Thanks!!!!!

Hi folks,

been reading this thread and found it helpful! Here's my add:

Foot size: USA 10.5/11 EU: 44/45
Fins: Sporasub Kelp
Fin size: 43/44 (9/10)
Neoprene socks: 3mm Mares Classic

Fit: very good with socks. A bit loose without. Haven't tried 5mm ones.​

I find the foot pockets pretty nice, though the blades (polymer) are quite soft, probably best in winter/shallow dives. But my freediving/spearfishing level is just beginner (at the moment!).

Regards,
Gino
