I want this kit to dive, I would use every day, serves a very continuous use?. My shoe size is 8, which size I use?

Chart was accurate for shoe size. Personally i would go to a dive shop if i was diving daily. It is a great set for the price and i would not be afraid to even do a tech dive with that equipment. If i was diving daily i would spend a little more and get sea vision mask and tusa flippers. If you are just snorkeling for oysters and such definite buy. I say med or large.

The medium should fit a Men's 7-10, Ladies 8-11. The fin has adjustable strap so should be no problem.

I typically wear a 10.5 to 11 shoe. I purchased 11 and it fits just about right. If you are not sure, I would go up to the higher size...if an 8 mens is a 6 women's...go from there

I wear a 10.5 men's shoe. I use a medium. It's tight and tough to get on and off, but it does the job perfectly. I wear them for about 3+ hours at a time.

Hi, best way is to call O'Neil and give them your dimensions and take their recommendations. 800-538-0764. That's what I am glad I did, almost ordered a medium, which would have been way too big. And, I recently found out that if you get sick of wearing wetsuit boots with it and having cold feet, you can get rubber boot conversion kits at Andy and Bax in Portland OR. You take your Oneill dry suit and cut the ankle gaskets and glue them on. Then you wear socks under them and your wetsuit boots over. I have not done this yet with mine, looks tricky to do, and will probably bribe the folks there to install them. I bet you can get kits to convert to/install relief zipper openings too.Hope this helps.Mason Hi, best way is to call O'Neil and give them your dimensions and take their recommendations. 800-538-0764.

If you have a large foot the flippers will be extremely tight. I wear a 10.5 shoe. I ordered the largest size available. They were so tight I had to take them off after about 15 minutes.

I used these as I wear a 7 1/2. I ordered size eight and they fit perfect. Hope you find what you need.

I wear an ll man's shoe, and their 'large" size is a really tight fit. you might be ok, a bit loose, they SAY you can fix by wearing a sock. i could not swim any faster with them than with large scuba fins, and I had to work much harder with the aqua fin. I am not, however, training to really swim, just to endure, lose weight, and built leg muscle. If your goals are different, they might work for you.

I found the 8 perfect for me (a male 8 1/2). The product has enough expansion & measures 10.5", toe-to-heel, sonot tight on the foot (my foot is 9.75"). Too loose in water activities is not a good thing.

The SIZES are TRUE size to each fitting. If you are exactly US 8.5, perhaps order a Size 9, but it is WIDE cut, so it does not fit narrow cutting shoe. But if you are slight under 8.5, then buy Size 8. Good luck.

Well, I wear a size 12 shoe and my foot fits fine. Like I said in my review though, the bucket isn't very comfortable for both feet at the same time. A size 13 is 11.69 inches. If the bucket is only 11 inches, then your foot might be a hair big for it. But if you're only soaking one foot at a time, then you could place your foot at a little bit of a angle and it should fit just fine. I think you can make the bucket work for you. It's a good bucket, and the handle makes it easy to carry and dump the water. Hope this helped.

I wore size 12 so you'll want a large. The straps adjust. I actually wore scuba shoes with mine and were fine.

I bought the exact same size as the shoe size. Seems like they are true to size. Good luck, and have fun!

I am an exact men's 11 shoe size. The "G" fins fit me perfectly. (FYI, I have normal-to-narrow feet).

I did not use foot sox/booties. I have male 8 1/2 shoe size and followed the web page sizing chart. The flippers fit perfectly.Be sure to fully tighten the heel straps before swimming.

I am your height with 48" chest and size 12 shoe. I went with XL. At 11.5 shoe size for L, you may be hard pressed to get a comfy fit for your feet. I would consider a larger size. If your feet are uncomfortable, the rest of you will be uncomfortable. Don't forget to get your wading boots in one size larger than your shoe size so the extra material of the neoprene stocking foot will fit. I have seen others who have called Caddis for advice. Having some extra room will also accommodate thermal garments in very cold waters. good luck! Ted

Ok I read some of the other post an I must state I use mine on my Nike shoes if you plan on using boots it mite require one size larger tho from what I got is you should use a medium size for you an I would think you would still have some stretch room for a bigger boot sole

Hi, I don't know if this help much but the pair of boots that I bought like these I ordered a size 8. I generally wear a size 7 shoe but these size 8 boots fit like a glove. I would not have wanted anything any smaller. If I were a size 10 I think I would order an 11 wet boot. I like the boots but I use them for kayaking and not diving.
