Wide fin blade, open hole at the toes, flexible silicone and dual-channel drainage on the sides make these Shimmer fixed heel fins our most popular fins for recreational, beginner and kids swimmers in particular
The Shimmer fixed heel short swim fins are made from two types of silicone to maximize propulsion - the fin blade itself is made from a stiffer silicone, while the foot pocket is made from a softer silicone. This difference provides the necessary flexibility at the ankles, forcing them to stay stretched, while the blade itself is stiff enough to provide the most resistance to the water and thus propulsion for you.
The swim fins have a classic design that you probably know from the typical fins in swim fins - but here in a subdued dark blue and grey colour.
The fin blade itself is also made wider than usual to allow you to go further on each leg kick.
The Shimmer is made with a fixed heel, which provides the necessary support that especially recreational, beginner and kids' swimmers need and does not overload the joints around the ankle.
The two fins are made asynchronous for the most natural leg kick, which you can easily transfer to regular swimming without fins on. This means they don't bump into each other when you wear them.
On each side of the fins you'll find the hydrodynamic cylinders, which ensure that the water moves backwards during each kick and you move forward.
Underneath the swim fins, non-slip silicone modules have of course been added, so you can safely walk to and from the water - even on wet surfaces.
Swim fins are one of the most effective pieces of swimming equipment for improving your swimming, both technically and in terms of speed. With the Watery Shimmer short swim fins on, especially newer swimmers can solve a typical challenge - getting their legs up in the water with the aim of lying more straight in the water and thus creating less water resistance. Not only does this increase propulsion, but it also ensures that you can focus on other technical aspects of your swim, such as breathing or arm stroke.
The swim fins come in a black nylon net with holes that you can use for storage and transportation over and over again.
