The top choice of lifeguards, bodysurfers, and watermen around the world, DaFin swim fins provide power and comfort in the most extreme surf conditions. The rigid blade works in conjunction with the strakes to give maximum power on the down stroke while the soft rubber foot pocket provides the ultimate comfort, preventing blisters and chafing without the need for fin socks or booties. Originally designed with the ocean lifeguard in mind, DaFin is the official swim fin of the United States Lifesaving Association (USLA) and standard issue for the Hawaiian Lifeguard Association.

DaFiN Sizing
DaFiN/Kicks sizes are based on US Men’s Shoe Sizes. The size chart below shows conversion to Women’s, EU and UK sizing. Length is the most important measurement: heel to longest toe.
We do not make ‘narrow’ or ‘wide’ versions of DaFiN. The foot pocket is soft, comfortable, and stretches to accommodate width.
Increase your size selection if you plan to wear a bootie, however, our foot pockets are so comfortable a bootie is not needed for comfort.
