Closing the Gaps - PF3 Fins, Socks and Deluxe Fin Savers
The POD PF3 Evolution Swim Fins, Neoprene Fin Socks and Deluxe Fin Savers build a close fit around the most flexible fin in the PF Series. The PF3's asymmetric blade is the longest in the range, and it keeps the load centred over your foot rather than the outer toe edge. Its asymmetric pocket stretches unevenly by design, so the 3mm sock fills any loose spots and pulls the fit in tight. At the ankle, the Deluxe Fin Savers keep each fin on in the surf and moving water where the PF3 does most of its work.
PF3 Evolution POD Swim Fins
The PF3 Evolution has the longest blade in the PF Series and the most flex. Its asymmetric blade carries the load over the centre of your foot instead of the outer toe edge, so the fin follows your kick rather than working against it.
The PF3 shares the vertical rails design as the PF2. They run right to the blade edge and grip the wave face, helping your legs hold their line instead of drifting down the wave. The asymmetric foot pocket traces the natural shape of your foot, so the connection stays tight when you drive hard off the bottom.
Choose the PF3 if you bodysurf or bodyboard and want a fin that answers the small changes in how you move. It comes into its own on waves where your timing and position decide the ride. Available in SM to L.

POD Neoprene Fin Socks
Standard fin socks stitch the inner arch, and that stitching is where most of the discomfort starts. The POD 3mm Neoprene Fin Socks use a registered stitch-free construction that leaves the inner arch smooth. The neoprene wraps the medial arch cleanly, with no ridge to press into your foot through a long session.
The PF3's asymmetric foot pocket stretches differently from a symmetric pocket, following the shape of your foot rather than a straight line through it. A fin sock lets you fine-tune that fit. It fills the space where your foot and the pocket don't quite meet, so the connection stays secure when you load up through the kick.

POD Deluxe Fin Savers
The POD Deluxe Fin Savers use a slim-line buckle-adjustable strap system with 6mm webbing that loops around any swim fin strap and sits flat against the ankle. The 4mm neoprene padding reduces pressure and friction without adding bulk between the foot and the fin. They suit ocean use in surf, shore break, and moving water where fin retention matters - exactly the conditions the PF3 is used in.
