How do I clean and maintain my Powerfin Fins?

What is the difference between short fins and long fins?
Short fins like the Powerfin Fin are generally better for developing kicking technique and speed due to a quicker cadence, while long fins are often used for building leg strength and endurance.
Do I need to wear socks with these fins?
Wearing socks is optional. Many swimmers prefer to wear them bare feet for a more direct feel, but thin swim socks can help prevent irritation for some users.
Troubleshooting
Fins feel too tight or uncomfortable.
Ensure you have the correct size. Try wearing them for short periods initially to allow the silicone to mold slightly to your foot. Make sure there are no wrinkles in the sock if worn.
Skin irritation or blisters.
Rinse fins thoroughly and ensure they are clean. If irritation persists, try wearing thin swim socks with the fins. Ensure the fins are the correct size and not rubbing excessively.
Fins feel unstable during kicking.
Verify that the fins are the correct size and fit securely. Practice with them in shallow water first to get accustomed to the added propulsion and stability they offer.
