Maybe ok for occasional recreational use, but not for swim workout
By swmat from Norwood, MA on 5/19/2012
Size: Feels true to size
Bought these fins for my 6 and 9 year old kids for swim practice.  Unfortunately the velcro heel strap did not do a good job of staying in place.  The fins kept falling off in the water.  Granted, the kids may not have tighten the velcro properly, but if they can't do it, then it's not worth the trouble.  Bought new fins with the full rubberized heel - those stayed on for the full workout.

Almost perfect
By Jeanie B. from Alice Springs, Australia on 1/16/2012
Size: Feels true to size
The fins fit my 7-year-old well, and he is delighted with his new ability to speed through the water. He is developing a better position in the water as he learns to swim because the fins force him into a horizontal position, rather than the foot-dragging 45 degree angle that is killing his speed. The strap on the back of the fins does slip off his foot constantly. I improvised a fin keeper with some stretchy velcro straps and now they work perfectly.

DON'T GET THESE!
By Donna from STUART, VA on 7/27/2011
THEY WILL NOT STAY ON YOUR KIDS FEET.  THEY ARE A JOKE.  I CALLED TO SEE ABOUT EXCHANGING AND THEY SAID SORRY...THEY HAVE BEEN IN THE WATER.  THAT IS WHAT HE GOT THEM FOR  IS THE WATER. THEY FIT FINE OUTSIDE THE WATER. GOOD I GUESS IF YOU ARE NOT WEARING THEM IN THE WATER.

Good flippers!

I got these for my 6yo to use in our pool.  They work really well and I expect to use them for quite awhile.  The velcro works just fine IMO.

Not sure
By Chelle from murrells Inlet, SC on 7/18/2011
Size: Feels too big
Not sure if the size is just too big for my 5yr old. the fins do not stay on her feet, it may be that she has to learn how to use them, but they also fall off on my neighbor whom is 7yrs old.

Continues to fall off
By JMGORDON from Collegeville, PA on 7/7/2011
Size: Feels true to size
The fins continue to fall off and the velcro does not secure the foot in to the fin

Great kids fins
By Betty from North Carolina on 6/22/2011
Size: Feels true to size
Our five year old is really enjoying his new fins. They are not as stiff as some adult fins, which is great. They stay on well and fit securely with the adjustable heel strap. My only concern is that the velcro is a very thin piece, so I may replace it with a wider one to stay on even better.

Awful
By Mstwenty from Phil pa on 4/24/2011
Would not stay on my son's feet, when I tried to ajust the strap he said his feet hurt.

velcro a little whimpy, but very comfy
By kbw from bellevue, wa on 1/26/2011
we had a hard time getting the velcro to stay stuck for the first few uses, but with extra effort (that shouldn't really be neccessary) they kept on his feet and did what they were meant to do comfortably.
