Skin Socks

Simple solution. I was getting blisters from wearing my swim fins while lap swimming.These work great.I reordered to have extras.

Just received my Finis Swim Sock's tonight and I have to say I'm very impressed because I've never owned a pair of swim socks before, I mean I have had half neoprene booties from Dol-Fin Tails, Inc (they come with your monofin) anyway... For those who did get these socks and gave it a 1-3 star review here's what you should have done... Read the size chart first (cuz their skin tight) get the right size, keep your to nails trimed and don't pull or strach too hard, go slow and take you time putting them on, make sure the "Finis" name is on top of your foot, also make sure the seam's are evan. I don't need to do a full usage review cuz I've had nylon, polyester spandex mix blend fabric swim products before. These can be uses as just sock's well cuz they are kinda like normal sock's. To care for them gently take em off, wash them with freash water and "Dawn Soap" (or the "Great Value" brand of Dawn Soap) after each use of swimming (that's to wash all the sea, pool, and lake water off and make sure all the soap is washed out to cuz Dawn Soap is very sudsy) then you squeeze everything out. To dry them don't hang them by a hanger or a hook (that'll streach them out) hang them on your shower pole or over the edge of your bathtub (somewhere) oh and not don't leave them in the sun to dry. I'm not sue if they can be machine washed you should contact the seller, Amazon, SwimOutlet or Finis about that.

I use these with my fins when I swim laps. I swim 3 to 4 times a week for 90 minutes. They are the only thing I have been able to find that keep my feet from blistering in the fins. I slip these on and then an old pair of socks. The socks are added because I buy fins a size too big. If I buy them in my size they tend to tear at stress points in the foot end. I know it sounds strange but the combination of the two fits my feet perfectly. And my fins last for years. However, The problem I have is the sock does not hold up in chlorine. They start breaking down within six weeks. The Lycra just can't take the pool chemicals. For as much as these cost you would think they could make a pair that lasts longer.

This is the 3rd pair I have purchased. The first 2 were good quality and lasted a long time. This pair started stretching within a week and became unusable after a month. I had hoped that I could make them work but it was impossible. By the time I looked to see if I could return them and get a replacement, it was too late to do that. I am looking for another brand!

Have been using these socks about 2 x a week with swim fins during lap workouts in a chlorinated pool. Definitely helps with reducing abrasion on top of foot. Now unfortunately, they bag like crazy; it's as if the elastic fibers are shot. Will have to replace them in the near future. Don't know if I would buy this one again. (Finis products are usually quite good; I am swimming with Finis snorkel and gold fins and very pleased with those items).

My scuba fins were rubbing on my feet and ankles, so I bought 3 different styles of booties and socks. These were by far the best! The other two had a thick sole that would be helpful when walking on hot sand, but I just wanted thin socks to protect my feet from rubbing when I wore my fins. Worked Great and dried quickly!

Felt great with swim fins in the pool for two weeks. Purchased them 03/22/2022 and they failed today 04/8/22022. The stitching of one seam has started to come apart leaving a hole where the continuous seam used to be. Guess I could stitch them up but at $15.00/ par I thought they would be more durable.

purchased a size small for my son who wears a boys size 2 1/3 shoe. He loved the socks. We wore them with fins and these protected his feet and prevented blisters. After snorkeling he liked to keep them on running around the beach. They were not heavy like water shoes, yet provided a little protection. He would also wear them with the splash shoes - so all around he loved them. The seam down the middle did not bother him.
