Cressi Rondinella Full Foot Snorkeling/Free Diving Fins (Made in Italy)

I bought these along with the Cressi Sirena mask and snorkel to make the most a day out to the beach so i could do some casual freediving. They are absolutely fantastic! The design is excellent, they are light, comfortable, made of specially selected materials to give the best comfort and performance, and they work brilliantly. They require minimal effort to swim with but provide a massive boost for underwater swimming which is an essential combination for holding your breath for long periods of time, minimal effort with maximum speed. Of course, they won't be as good as professional freediving fins but the professional ones are several times longer and about four of five times more expensive. If you just want to make the most of the odd day out and do a bit of casual free diving then these are the best option. Very well designed, all the right kinds of strength in the right places, they feel durable and you can tell they are very well constructed and made to a high standard. I don't doubt that these will last years.One thing i do recommend is to measure your feet and check the official Cressi website to make sure you get the right size. These flippers seem to have a slightly loose fit (very slight) which i assume is so you can wear them with diving socks. Diving socks prevent rubbing and keep your feel warmer in colder water. I didn't use diving socks though and i had no problem with them, I'm a size 11 in normal shoes so i got size 45-46, and they fit very well. They felt slightly loose when i first put them on, only very slightly, but they are comfortable and and didn't feel like they were going to slip off at any point in the water in a whole days swimming, they felt very secure in the water and didn't rub at all. At least i know there's a little room for diving socks if i want to use them with a wet suit in colder water. So if you're a bit unsure of the sizing measure your feet and check Cressi's website just to make sure.I'm so glad i bought these, just wish i'd have bough them sooner so i enjoy casual diving to it's fullest!

I found these fit my feet PERFECTLY and were great to go snorkeling on holiday. I ordered a 33/34 and I'm a size 2 UK. I had no problem with them being too tight and cutting off circulation or being too loose and slipping off. They are great quality and really no complaints other than the fact that the toe opening bit rubbed against my toe on the first day I wore them and left me with a cut. I'm not sure if I got some sand stuck in them or something and it didn't happen again, but it was a bit annoying as it was pretty sore to get into salty water with a cut on my foot.All in all though I'd recommend.

Brilliant

This a good for what you pay. Just getting into freediving and didn't want to spend a fortune until I'm sure it's a real thing, so thought I would go cheap .... Blades are firm but have good flextion ... rubber is comfortable to wear ... and the size fits well.

well made, and light - easy to put on

I love the fins because I love swimming inches sea. As I'm an amputy they help me to swim better so I guess they perform very well. The bag that they came in make very easy to transport them to the beach.

These fins are pretty easy to put on, especially if you wet your feet and the fins at the start. Large blades give really good propulsion and they are comfortable to wear for a long time. Good value.

I've been a fan of Cressi fins for years, and these are incredibly good value. They are perfect for snorkelling. They are nice and soft and bendy, giving you good manoeuvrability and helping you get in and out nooks and crannies. They're lightweight and comfortable, and the translucent blue looks fantastic. Highly recommended.
