Best Swimming Training Fins of 2025

"I've been using these fins for about a year, and they are sturdy and do exactly what I need them to do. Even though they are a bit snug on my size 12.5 feet, I have no problem wearing them for 40-45 minutes in the pool."

"I love these fins! They feel fantastic compared to my old fins, which made my feet cramp after just 20 minutes. With these, I can swim for 50+ minutes comfortably. I found that applying a bit of sunscreen on my feet makes them super easy to put on."

"I bought these fins for my daughter’s swim training, and she said they fit perfectly. They work great in the pool and have really improved her freestyle training."

"I tried several options before finding these fins. I really like them! They are lightweight, fit like a glove, and provide great propulsion. The fin length is just right."

"I ordered based on a size chart, but they arrived larger than expected. I got a women's 8/9 instead of 7/8. Despite that, they are comfortable in the water and offer good resistance."

"These fins were perfect for my kids who are on a swim team. They are lightweight and have lasted for two seasons with heavy use. I highly recommend them!"

"I recently bought these swimming fins for my child, and they are fantastic! The fit is just right and incredibly comfortable, allowing my kids to swim for hours without any complaints. They’ve really boosted my child's swimming speed and performance, making them feel like little fish in the water. Plus, the bright colors make them easy to spot in the pool. I highly recommend them for young swimmers!"

"I purchased these fins in size xxxs(9-11 green fins) and size xxs(11-1 orange fins) for my 5 1/2 year old daughter. The green fins fit her much better, as they run a little large. I want my daughter to have a snug fit while swimming. These fins are recommended by her swim coach and are durable, which is great. However, I was a bit disappointed with the cosmetic imperfections on the orange pair."

"I love these swim fins! I have three different pairs, and these are by far the most comfortable. They are easy to put on and take off, and I swim a mile in the pool twice a week. I really feel like I can shred the water with these!"

"I've been using these fins for about six months and absolutely love them. Initially, I thought they were a bit tight compared to my previous fins, but they turned out to be durable and the color is great. They are just the right size to work my legs effectively while making turns at the wall easy."

"After years of using long fins, I decided to switch to these short fins to enhance my kick strength. Although I don't swim as fast with them, I can feel my leg strength improving, and my kicking without fins has become much more effective. The fit is perfect for my size 12.5US feet. There was some initial rubbing on my heels, but by the third swim, they felt much better and I could hardly feel them."

"As a competitive swimmer, finding comfortable fins has always been a challenge, especially with my wider feet. I was excited to try these silicone fins and right away, I noticed they don't dig into my feet. They fit nicely without any sharp edges, and they are much lighter than my old rubber fins. I can finally swim comfortably without worrying about discomfort!"

“As a skinny triathlete, I wear a 10.5 or 11 size running shoe. I ordered the 8.5 to 9 size fins, but they felt loose and moved around too much. After sending them back, I ordered the U.S. size 7-8 (Euro 41/42), and they fit perfectly! These fins are definitely an upgrade from my old Speedo fins, and they work great for my swim workouts.”

“At 79 years old, I'm teaching myself to swim. I got these fins to add buoyancy to my legs, and I was pleasantly surprised by how they improve my kicking. They provide smooth propulsion through the water with little effort, and are super comfortable. I highly recommend them!”

“I love the Cressi light fins! They're by far the best fins I've ever owned. As a 62-year-old, I swim about 5k a week, and these fins have made my kicks incredibly powerful. They’ve helped me swim faster and are even good for snorkeling. Just a tip: order one size smaller than your shoe size for the best fit.”

"I find these fins to be the best for exercise swimming. As an open water swimmer, they help balance the effort of my arms and legs. Without fins, my legs wouldn’t get much workout, and these are just right. They also keep my body aligned while swimming, which greatly improves my stroke. Highly recommended for daily use!"

"I absolutely love these fins! I replaced my old TYR crossblades, and these feel stronger and thicker where my old ones tore. They give me a nice speed boost and work my leg muscles well. No rubbing or blisters, and they fit true to size. I’m a women's 7.5 and got the S size. Super happy with this purchase!"

"I am a triathlete using these for swim training. The flex and propulsion are just right. I purchased size XL, but my toes do hang out slightly, so if your feet are larger than a men's 12.5 or 13, I recommend going for the XXL. Overall, they work great for me!"

"I struggled to find the right fins, but I finally found the Speedo ones. I’m a size 9.5, and I ordered the L 11-13, which fit perfectly. They provide excellent push and have the right flexibility. Plus, they look great!"

"I've been using my fins regularly for a few months now. Initially, they were a bit uncomfortable between my big toes, but I got used to it. However, I'm disappointed that one fin is tearing after such a short time. I expected better durability based on my previous Speedo experience."

"My kids absolutely love these fins! They arrived a bit dirty, but they work perfectly. Great for kids' training!"

"I've been using these for ages and they are well worth the money; they're built to last! I recently got a new pair for a friend who started lap swimming with me. The snug fit is exactly what you need for swimming longer distances. They help to ease any foot strain that other fins might cause. Plus, they fit easily in my pool bag. If you're new to using fins, you might notice some stiffness at first, but that goes away quickly. An added bonus is that you glide through the water like a dolphin, which was a dream of mine as a kid!"

"I bought a pair for my son after using mine for over 12 years. I've used them in both chlorinated and saltwater, and they are very durable and easy to care for. Just a quick rinse and air dry is all it takes. I recommend using a mesh bag for transport instead of a gym bag."

"I really like my fins; they provide a great leg workout, but I do wish the rubber around the ankle fit a bit snugger. Overall, they are a solid choice!"

"I recently tried TYR fins after my old ones wore out. They fit snugly and are comfortable, staying on during flip turns. While they help with propulsion, they aren't meant for snorkeling or scuba diving. Perfect for lap swimming!"

"Initially, I worried that I ordered too small, but once I got in the water, they fit like a glove. I swam half a mile without any blisters. Wonderful fins that feel like an extension of my feet!"

"These fins really helped improve my kicking and form. Although they were a bit snug and peeled some skin off my toe, I still think they are a good product overall."

“I find these fins very comfortable and true to size. I've been using them at every practice and they don't chafe at all.”

“As a novice swimmer, I noticed these fins are quite heavy right out of the package. Just something to keep in mind.”

“I really like the design and flex material, but be cautious with sizing as there are no overlaps.”
