Mares Bungee Fin Strap (Pair)

Mares Bungee Fin Strap (Pair)

Mares Bungee Fin Strap (Pair) are created as a smart alternative to the steel spring straps, relegating adjusting a fin strap to the past.

Simple yet innovative and 100% compatible with the Mares fin line

Bungees exceed steel springs in all aspects: higher elastic properties, unaffected by sun, salt and chemical agents, lower weight and lower cost, and Mares has 40 years of experience using bungees as a key element in spear guns. With the new Mares bungee strap donning and doffing a fin is a breeze, and the comfort during the dive is guaranteed by the new ergonomic heel cover.

The bungee strap system is tailored specifically to each fin size
The length of the bungee is 18, 21 and 24 cm, respectively, and in this configuration will fit the vast majority of divers.

However, there may be instances when an extension may be welcome, such as when the user is at the upper limit of the foot size range for the given fin size and/or is using thick boots (dry suit or sneaker sole type wet boots).

For this purpose Mares have included one extender per bungee, which increases the length of the strap by 1.5cm (hence splitting the difference to the next size).
Mares strongly suggest first using the bungee strap system without the extender and verifying the fit in this configuration first.

Only if the bungee seems excessively tight do they suggest to mount the extender.
It is irrelevant whether this extender is mounted on the right or the left side.
