I bought one of the Molchanov float and I don't regret, it's big and robust. Unfortunately I've lost the oral inflation tool, so I could top-up the float in air anymore, but Molchanov sent me a new... See more

The CORE silicone monofin is great. Comfortable, easy to put on and take off. I appreciate that it is small enough to use in a shared lane but powerful enough to feel like a real monofin. I purchased... See more

I have reached out to info and to Anna…

I have reached out to info and to Anna for support on a lost package several times and have had very little communication. Extremely frustrating. I would like a refund as I have not yet received the fins.

SHIPPING FEES

I hope you will understand my concerns about shipping fees and customs duties. It can indeed be frustrating when costs add up unexpectedly. While I don't have direct control over shipping fees, I recommend considering the following options:

1. Customs Duties Integration: Partnering with a courier that includes customs duties in the delivery cost could simplify the process for you. This way, we will pay a single fee upfront, avoiding surprises later.

2. Shipping Fee Adjustments: Some platforms, have introduced adjustments to simplify shipping fee charges. For instance:
- Wrong Weight Adjustment: If your parcel's actual weight differs from the declared weight, there might be an adjustment¹.
- Shipping Fee Voucher by Seller: This reflects the cost of your store's Free Shipping promotion.

Remember that shipping fees are influenced by various factors, including parcel weight, dimensions, and shipping method. While we can't directly change these fees, I hope these suggestions help us find a more cost-effective solution. 😊📦

I’m slowly replacing all my old freediving gear…

I’m slowly replacing all my freediving gear with Molchanovs products. I started with the hyper bifins which have by FAR the most comfy foot pockets of any fin around, plus great performance. Then I bought a mono for the same reasons: comfort and performance. The nose clips are the strongest and lowest profile around. Recently I added a sport 2.5mm wetsuit to the collection: way warmer (and cheaper) than my 3mm from another brand, and so soft and stretchy to boot. Finally, I got me a pair of silicone training fins which are perfect for chucking in a shoulder bag when you are going to train after work, or for a quick weekend away fun diving.

My favourite freediving brand

High quality freediving equipment designed for freedivers. The customer service team are helpful and answer questions about product suitability. I also love the Molchanovs Education System (and teach it). It is the most comprehensive freediving education system on the market and the only one that is investing in continued development and updating materials and resources.
