I started off with the Caddis flippers, They worked okay, but they chewed up my wading boots (I wear Simms wading boots because I also fish rivers) and the boot on my hippers

So then I moved on to the Browning. Very long and flexable like the scuba gear. The rubber strap on the back will break at the most inconvenient time. They too were hard on my boots.

Finally, two years ago, I bought the Force Fins. Keep in mind there are a bunch of different styles of force fins and bunch of different prices. I went with the ones in the middle that have Neoprene heel gaurd and neoprene for the top of your foot. Slide your foot in, adjust the neoprene and clip. Done. They do not wear on my boots at all, the flex, they scoop, and I can move quickly and easily and I am not a strong person.

It is a personal preference. But, I am sold on Force fins.
Don't forget TEATHERS
