Kiefer Training Swim Fins

I bought these for a 1-mile San Diego bay swim. Usually I don't swim with fins but this time I didn't want to watch all the people with fins go twice as fast as me. I did one warm-up swim with them the week prior in the pool. Both during the warm-up and the bay swim the fins were very comfortable and I didn't have any hotspots at all. The fit on my feet extremely well and it didn't cross my mind that they might possibly fall off. I highly recommend these fins for surface swimming.

These fins are well made, a little narrow for my short and wide feet... I will try them on while in the pool to see if they fit me better...Other wise I will return them...I am returning these and ordering a larger size. These are awesome in the pool!I hope the larger size is not too large!!Got the latter size, they fit much better!! I wear Birkenstocks a wide 6 or a large 4, just in case the helps to order the right size!I like these fins a lot! Nice material, lets see how they hold through the summer!!

I wear a size 5 1/2 Wide woman's shoe. I carefully read all the reviews to see if I could guess which fin would fit me best. The 5-7 Kiefer 800400-C fits perfectly. If your shoe size is closer to 7, you may need a larger size unless your feet are narrow. Also the fin is soft and flexible, so it is very easy to swim laps in. I hadn't swum in a couple of years.

I went through the rounds of ordering and trying fins. Some too heavy, some too stiff. Kind of like the 3 bears, this one was just right. Good flexibility, strong kicking ability, nice fit, heel doesn't slip off like two of the others. I do conditioning and laps in the public pool, these are definitely improving my swim.

i love this product so much I learned how to swim much longer and gave me confidence that you are not going to drown since it keep you up no matter how tired you are, as a new swimmer just learning how to swim and when people see me swim with it, they thought i am a pro.

Very good. It doesn't propel you too fast like the larger fins. These still allow you to work on your strides. Therefore, these fins will give you 50% push as oppose to the long fins, which will propel you to 80%. Gives you a great workout.

great addition to my fitness routine at the pool. Neuropathies in both feet have led me to find alternatives walking/ running for cardio. These help make the workout in the pool in many ways. They add resistance to aqua leg lifts and core exercises. highly recommend. Size chart was perfect.

The training swim fins are light, which was just what I was looking for. I use them a lot and pleased with my purchase.Finding the correct size is a bit of a problem in my opinion. My shoe-size is 40/41 and not 42/43. These fins fit, however, nicely.The distance on the inside of the fins between the heel to the ridge, which your toes are not supposed to cross, is 25 cm. This would be more useful in chosing your size. Other training fins of a different brand with size 38-40 also measure 25 cm between inside heel and ridge. .I had also ordered red/grey Kiefers in the Netherlands and there the 42/43 where a bit bigger than these because the heel was less closely fitting. So regretfully there is an inconsistency within the Kiefer swimming fin sizes.

Following hip surgery you are not allowed to do a lot of the kick used in swimming These shorter fins allow you to use movement that will not damage your new hip, allowing you the movement needed to move along quickly.

Although the fins work great I was surprised by the poor colour on the blue areas of the fins. It really doesn't look professional done.

My wife said they fit well with no rubbing.

Good product, fit well, good quality. Not disappointed.
