New Variegated Colour PF3 Range - Bodysurfing Fins, Bodyboarding Fins and Ocean Photographers Swim Fins
Our passionate and experienced POD Ware team are thrilled to introduce our top-of-the-line surfing swim fins.
Our PF3 swim fins stand out with their unique variegated colour, resulting from extensive research and development at the POD rubber fin factory. This level of dedication is unmatched by any other design team.
The variegated colours are one of a kind. They are irregular colour patches that feature on our fin straps and rails. Diverse ocean life has inspired POD surfing fins, allowing us to capture marine species' vibrant and unique characteristics beautifully.
Each flipper conveys its story, just like each marine life's incredible diversity. The distinct characteristics of each fin explore a narrative of individuality, that each customer is subject to their exclusive pair of POD surf fins.
Yet another worldwide first for POD Ware - a Proud Australian Owned Company
Durability and Longevity
No one wants to buy swim fins that fall apart after a few uses; this is common among cheap-grade rubber formulations.
Please don't take our word for it. Here is one hundred per cent proof: a customer has just posted on Instagram a pair of PF3 POD fins that are ten years old and as good as new, worth every cent. Now, that is sustainable manufacturing.
PF3 Design Evolution
This distinctive swimming fin has all the high-quality design features of our PF2s. Still, it stands out because of its asymmetrical design, which delivers a more precise balance to users than existing asymmetrical fins in the market.
Experienced bodysurfers, bodyboarders and surf photographers seek these performance fins.
Our "Point of Difference" (POD) philosophy makes the difference aesthetically and functionally in this leading-edge surfing swim fin!
Swim Fin Comparison

Swim Fins versus Shoe Size Comparisons
One common mistake is comparing your shoe size directly to swim fin sizes. Let us explain why it's not a good idea:
- Different Sizing Standards: Just like shoes, many brands of rubber swim fins will vary in size. A size 10 in one fin brand may be a size 9 in another.
- Lack of Adjustability: Unlike shoes, rubber swim fins do not have shoelaces to help you achieve a snug fit. Instead, they rely on the rubber to stretch to fit your feet snugly and prevent slipping off during use.
To ensure the best fit, always check our specific size chart link above for the fins you're interested in and consider trying them on.
Tips and Advice
*Note: If your feet match the width shown on the foot sizes chart, although slightly longer, space remains. Due to the foot cavity, a versatile length foot pocket provides a comfortable fit.
However, all POD Flippers are not suited to fit more than one foot below the size chart, which will alter the predetermined foot size to blade length ratio.
The wrong fitting will compromise the swim fin's structural wall section by overloading or over stretching the rubber, voiding the warranty replacement.
If you have any doubts, please get in touch with us or visit your local stockist to ensure you purchase the appropriate size.
At POD Ware, we understand that comfortable swim fins are your most important priority, followed by performance and price.
As we often say at POD Ware, "If you have comfort and performance swim fins, they're worth the price you pay."
We highly recommend a common sense approach, that is, walking or running backwards will not compromise the swim fin structure
POD swim fins are for swimming, not forward walking or running (swimming fins are not shoes).

Best Fins for Wide Feet
The pod 2s and pod 3s foot pocket is the best and comfiest out there for wide feet. I am a size 13 double extra wide in USA and the size L fit me perfect. No other fin compares. I love the Pod 2s and Pod 3s have a little bit stronger kick because of the fin blade and I can speed up quick. Been sponging for 15 years and so glad I found this company. Highly recommend!!!!!! Also, Shane is amazing with customer support and quick to respond. Kudos!

PF3 EVOLUTION POD SWIM FINS - NEW VARIEGATED COLOUR RANGE
The PF3 EVOLUTION POD SWIM FINS - NEW VARIEGATED COLOUR RANGE, are great. These are my fourth pair of pods. Over the years I’ve tried so many different brands. But now I am truly satisfied with the pods. Nothing else compares. These fins give so much more thrust when needed, also very comfortable. Looking at the fins and the colour mix, it’s so cool how the colours are along the edge. Must have taken some pretty interesting design and technology to make it look so good. Well done POD . Purchased only, so easy. Once again, well done and thanks for putting in the effort to design and deliver a great product. I highly recommend POD fins to all those who really want to get on top of your surf game.

get a distributor back in Hawaii
Aloha, Your fins are so awesome, you guys gotta get a distributor back in Hawaii. I ordered through your website, shipping was killer but still worth it. I’ve only had them a couple weeks and have had several people ask me about them. Local motion & T&C surf shops are quite big y’all should reach out to them. I’ve used just about every fin out there, and the pf3’s are so dope, super comfortable maneuverable, but also hold you on the face. I love the original vipers, but they aren’t as comfortable or maneuverable. I’ve had all 4 versions you’ve put out over the years, this newest pf3 is my fav for sure. Mahalo

PF3s Absolutely Amazing!!!
Shane, Stefan here: my son and I had three sessions with your PF3s: absolutely amazing!!!! The best fins we have ever experienced! We tested them against a no name and a Dafin Pro: yours are so much more comfortable, more powerful and so much better designed! Glad you made them! Congratulations! What we like: the ease of slow pace propulsion, the power in a burst, the wide foot pocket, the drainage cutout and the wide ankle band!!! All top design! Something else: I find it absolutely ingenious to design a full length sharp edge down to the fin tips on both sides, so that don’t lose water sideways. And apart from that, these colours are awesome.

PF3 Fins
Great fins had a few pairs now and they work awesome and the most powerful fins for Bodyboarding that i have used thus far. One word of precaution is to make sure when entering the water or leaving, do not over flex the point where the toe part meets the blade as for over time this will split.

POD 3
These have all the comfort of the 2’s with even more thrust! I own a pair of both and switch off often! These r the best fins on the market!

P3 fins
I’m a regular bodysurfer, for more than 30 years, and these fins are great. The best I have used, I get the extra power I need to catch and stay on a wave. Comfortable as well.

best fins on the market
2 reasons why these fins beat everything else hands down: (1) efficiency of stroke, and (2) fit. I've used podfins since the first PF1's came out and even those were the most efficient and comfortable fins I've used. Previous brands I tried fit poorly (DaFIns, Hydro, DuckFeet) and didn't take Huey much effort at all to remove them from my feet. In approx 16 years I've used podfins, I wouldn't even need all the fingers on one hand to count how many times they've come off; and then it was only because they'd been flogged for years and the heel strap was losing its elasticity. Each model was an improvement on the last, and how any possible future PF4 model will beat the PF3's I can only wonder!
