You are right about the boots being not Latex, dive shop monkey was wrong. I was also wondering about the fit in my fins so I went back to the store with my Jet fin in hand and put a 1/4" wet suit sock over my 9 1/2 D size foot, then a size 10 "rock boot" and was able to fit it in my XL Scubapro jet fin, just barely. Thanks to all who replied, 6 in favor, 2 against. I'm going with the "rock boot" when I order the suit, if I don't like it I after a few dives then I guess I'll have to send the suit back for a refit.
