Sporti Neoprene Swim Fin Socks Reviews

12/13/2017 Good fin socks

By Qzcas

These fin socks fit well and provide some extra padding when walking on the pool deck. They also prevent blisters/rubbing when wearing fins. I also use them as shower shoes . My only complaint is that they do wear out and get holes... but I’m sure they would last longer if I only wore them in the pool!

8/31/2013 Great for a day at the beach

By Ann B.

When I first got these, I thought, uh-oh, too tight. But after a couple wears they loosened up a bit and fit perfect. Great for days we spend on Lake Superior on rocky shores. Also good for use on SUPs and kayaks. Definitely recommend.

By william nappa

use it with wading boots

12/20/2019 Great for the winter

By Uki82

I've been using these for years during the winter months, I wear them for the first 10 laps to warm up and prevent my toes from cramping. They are thick and keep my feet warm, the reason I keep using these specifically is that they are cut low and I can move my foot freely. The ones that are higher seem bulky for lap swimming.

The only issue is that they don't last long. They only last for about 3 months (using them every day for an hour at the pool). The part that is on the bottom (red in color, where the toes are) is the material that breaks off, they need to change this part to neoprene to prevent this issue. It really serves no purpose to make it another material.
I order a size small because I prefer a tight fit (I'm a size 8.5 -9).

11/6/2019 Worth buying to save feet from cafing and blistering

By Michael M.

I bought these fin socks because my workouts started involving a lot of kicking with fins; and I tried using a pair of running socks first, only to still have irritation. I figured I would try a neoprene type of sock for extra cushion, and found that I can swim with fins for a full workout without irritation. The downsides are that the material does eventually break down in pool because of exposure to chlorine, they are not easy to put on when wet (so do not take them off until done swimming with fins), and you lose the feel of the water when kicking while just wearing the socks. That being said, it is better to save your feet from chafing and blisters so I recommend these socks if you do a lot of fin work.

7/18/2019 good for my application.

By WARREN BEFORT

Repeat purchase of this item. I use them for a superior fit and comfort of my training (short) fins in lap swimming. They are stretchy as expected. I wear a size 13 shoe (B/D width) and use these socks in LARGE. They fit pretty snug but that is as intended for the application. The ankle seam on the first pair ordered lost its shape in about 4-5 month's time. I do use these 5x per week so perhaps they met their life expectancy.
I have looked numerous places for similar products but selection found has been quite limited so I stuck with these. Overall, I am satisfied and would recommend.

2/19/2018 Happy Feet

By Chuck

Socks are easy to use, keep feet from getting rubbed raw with fins. Makes lap swim a more comfortable time. Would buy this product again.

10/28/2017 Swim fin socks

By Jack

Saw these and decided to give them a try. I use fins a lot and sometimes develop blisters on my feet. I found them a little snug for my feet. I wear a 10.5 or 11 man's shoe. However, they do their job. I haven't had any problems since I started using them. Not sure how long they will last, since I have only been using them for a couple of weeks. Overall, I'm happy with them. The 4 stars is based on the snug fit. A larger foot would be a problem.

9/8/2015 Works against rubbing

By Bpatt

My daughter likes these and they keep her flippers from giving her blisters. She does say they are a little hard to put on.

5/23/2015 Runs Small

By Dennis B.

Have not tried them for functionality yet but if you're looking to buy disregard the "1/2 sizes please size down" comment. I wear a 7 1/2 and barely fit into the M 7-9 size. My boy is 9 1/2 and the heal of the sock was about an inch from the end of his heal.

1/22/2013 Neoprene Swim Socks

By Kathy

Bought the 6-8 women"s since reviews said these ran large. I wear an 8 or 8 and 1/2. These socks fit tight. However the 9-11 would have probably been too big. I will survive wearing them for my trip. Good quality though.

8/31/2012 Sporti neoprene swim socks

By Phillip Levi

Overall feel is nice. They run small. I wear a size 9 shoe and 7-9 sox were barely possible to get on my feet. They felt good under my fins which is why I sought them out. A grandson, shoe size 7.5 likes them and I gave my pair to another size 8 shoe swimmer

5/4/2012 Sporti Neoprene Swim Socks

By Kay M.

I do a water walk exercise class several times a week and these socks work very well protecting my feet from the bottom!

11/7/2011 Comfy water socks.

By Barb

Great for water aerobics. Like the holes on top of socks for water to escape. Comfortable on concrete pool bottom.

10/14/2020 Great Product, Need a XXL

By KG

These are great swim socks. I got the XLs and they’re too snug. I actually would have returned them, but I took a seam out trying to squeeze my foot in.

8/11/2020 Looks small but...

By Joseph R D.

Fits great and feels comfortable to

12/4/2019 swim fin socks

By BJ

fit well with the swim fins. no complaints.

9/22/2019 Bulky neoprene sock

By Bob

The socks are durable neoprene. The heel strap can be hard to keep under the fin strap. You need to buy a larger sized fin as the socks are bulky. I could not use them with Sporti or zoomers fins. The toe box is too tight and the fin strap too short to slide over the sock.

9/18/2019 Runs Small

By Rob

Wish I had sized up. I wear a size 10 US mens shoe and ordered a large and it's a bit too snug for my comfort. For 10 bucks I'll probably go back and order the XL. I'm prepared to give it 5 stars if the XL is as comfortable as I'm expecting it to be based on the feel of the L. Can't speak to longevity as I've only worn them once so far.

11/8/2018 Bought with a Larger Size Fin

By Rick1387

Need to purchase these in conjunction with a larger size fin to accommodate my son's wide size foot
They fit, they work (short term)
Only had them a few weeks so I have no idea how they hold up long term
