Your cart is empty.The Palau long adjustable fin (LAF) opens the way for a new type of snorkeling and swimming fin. It has been designed for two specific purposes. The first was to have a foot pocket that could easily adapt to at least three or four consecutive foot sizes. This would enable the same fin to be used by all the members of a family, or by a group of friends. It would also make it great for rentals in a diving center or on a charter boat, without requiring an infinite number of sizes. The second purpose was to guarantee extreme comfort and an ease of fit in a strapped open heel fin even if it is to be worn barefoot. The result is a fin that is extraordinarily practical, that adapts to practically any foot size, and that allows for very quick fitting in any situation. The blade is made from a lightweight, yet responsive material that assures a fluid and effortless kick, yet at the same time quite powerful. The fin blade extends from the top of the foot pocket to maximize the surface area. The strap has a strong pull tab ring to allow quick reversal of the strap for ease of donning and doffing or to clip the fins to the body or equipment. The fin pocket is made from a soft elastomer for added comfort. The Palau is designed and manufactured in Italy by Cressi, a brand pioneer in Scuba Diving, Snorkeling and Freediving equipment since 1946. The product is covered by a 2-year limited warranty.

Do not bother. Strap tore exactly like every other review I should have seen and heeded the warning for before buying. When I say strap tore, I mean within 1 minute of putting the fin on in the water. Ridiculous. Outside of return window. Contacting Cressi. The vendor shouldn’t eat the manufacturer’s quality control issue.

After one use I thought these fins were really nice. As I am putting them for my second snorkeling trip, one of the straps broke. I have used many fins in my life and never had one break so easily. Really disappointed.

Bought two sets for me and my son for a recent trip based on the listing sizing chart. I managed about 3 minutes before on strap snapped, my son didn’t even make it to the water before both of his snapped. Mine worked well until the break. Also had a couple buckles disappear in the process so that mirrors what I saw on some other reviews about them coming off easily. Going to source replacement buckles and straps

The fins seem to run a little small. First time putting them on and two minutes into snorkeling the strap snapped into. Thankfully my buddy had an extra set of straps and the day was great. Otherwise they seem decent

En primer uso se rompio la correa, el uso fue suave y nunca me habia pasado incluso con marcas genericas, muy mal para Cressi.

So disappointed in this product from a reputable brand. Bought these for my son for our vacation. He didn’t even make it into the ocean and one of the straps just split in half. He tried to make do with one flipper and the other strap broke in multiple spots and even the brackets that attach the strap to the flipper broke off! Don’t waste your money.
