Mares Hermes - Training Flippers, Short

Excellent! Fit perfect, worked really well for snorkelling, and you can fit them in hand luggage. I would have liked a hole or tab for some fin savers, which would put me off using them for bodyboarding (there is nowhere to attach them), but for snorkelling and swimming, really good. Provide a boost when diving etc. Used without socks and no rubbing, even with first use. I wear a UK 11, and they fit well. My wife wears a UK 6.5, and she could wear them over her beach shoes, they fit perfectly :) Highly recommended

These fins offer the perfect balance between performance and comfort.Key Highlights:Great for Building Strength and Technique: These short fins are excellent for improving my kicking technique and building leg strength. They provide just the right amount of propulsion without over-relying on them, which helps me focus on refining my form.Comfortable Fit: The foot pocket is soft and comfortable, even during longer swim sessions. I’ve had no issues with blisters or discomfort, which is a huge plus when training regularly.Compact and Lightweight: The short design makes them easy to carry to the pool, and they don’t take up much space in my swim bag. They’re also great for travel since they’re lightweight and portable.Perfect for Pool Training: These fins give me an extra boost in speed while allowing for more control in the water, making them ideal for pool drills and laps. I’ve noticed a definite improvement in both my endurance and overall swimming performance since incorporating them into my routine.Durable Build: The material seems to be quite durable.

Bought for my son to use in his swimming club, he likes them, they are not too big and are not hurting his feet. Really pleased

I loved these. Being a newbie to snorkeling I was unsure if I would have a need or benefit from these fins.They saved me a lot of hard swimming when we were against the tide hubby was amazed I didn't have to tow me to keep up. Being older and not as fit as some I was pleased how these helped.Small and light for packing easy to fit on and a good fit I am a wide size 4 with toe rings on too and they fit perfectly and we're comfy.

Great for swimming training - like all fins, a bit slippy on the pool but really nice fit when liner was removed and they have a good propulsion. I'd use these in sea water. Nice mesh carry bag

Good quality items. Very comfortable and sizing accurate. Excellent for holiday snorkeling. Light weight & easy to pack in hand or hold luggage.

Very disappointed,struggled like hell each time I put these on ..I’m size 12,too tight ..only wore them 3 times .

I was disappointed with these fins. I bought size 5-6 as I’m a 5 but these hurt my feet along each side and across the tops. They felt very rigid and uncomfortable. Returned fir a refund

Las Power Fin que tenía antes eran ideales para trabajar más los brazos pero cuestan casi el doble. Estas tienen una pala más larga y más rígida, así que nadas más rápido y trabajas más las piernas y menos la parte superior del cuerpo. Al ser más largas hay que ser más cuidadoso al caminar con ellas sobre rocas, pero de todas formas se pueden utilizar sin problemas para entrar en el mar y no resbalas porque tienen algo de goma en la suela. También ocupan más sitio en la bolsa. A la hora de comprar un segundo par dudo entre estas y las Power Fin u otras que tengan una pala más corta y flexible.

Vielen Tauchern und Wassersportlern wird die Marke Mares ein Begriff sein. Sie steht schon seit vielen Jahren für herausragende Qualität.So auch bei diesen Flossen. Ich habe mir Kurzflossen zum Beintraining angeschafft, damit ich meine Kraultechnik verbessern kann.Die Flossen passen entsprechend der Größenangabe wie angegossen.Es werden Schuhstützen aus hartem Kunststoff mitgeliefert, so daß das Gummi seine Form nicht verliert.Das Material erscheint hochwertig und weisst keinerlei Ermüdungserscheinungen auf.Durch Beinschlag aus der Hüfte erreicht man sowohl Auftrieb als auch Vortrieb, so dass man bei isoliertem Beintraining (mit dem Kickboard) sehr gut vorankommt.Dadurch, daß es sich um Kurzflossen handelt, ist der benötigte Kraftaufwand gut zu bewerkstelligen und sie passen in meinen überschaubaren 30l Schwimmrucksack von Arena problemlos hinein.Klare Kaufempfehlung.

Buongiorno a tutti, cosa dire?Che non capisco assolutamente le recensioni negative di persone che magari non sanno neppure nuotare.E pure i consigli di prendere una misura più grande, e le critiche per essere rigide sono veramente assurde.Ho il 40 e preso il 40-41 Eu e direi perfette nella calzatura.Qualità ottima, ho pure le pinne lunghe e la maschera Mares.Logicamente non sono adatte per le immersioni, ma solamente per pinneggiare in tranquillità.Voto 10 per la qualità e per il prezzo veramente ottimo.Arrivate con la retina a corredo, made in China magari NI peccato che non si produce più nulla in Italia, e questo è vergognoso.

Un produit qui semble de bonne qualité mais qui malheureusement est trop petit il faut prendre une pointure ou deux de plus7

Gute Qualität, passt alles
