Need fin recommendations

I love using my fins for part of my workout, but am getting increasingly frustrated with finding a fin that lasts for more than 2 months. Not sure if I can say what brands I've tried, but, I'm looking for a fin that is not really heavy (causing cramps in feet and calves), that is not too short and not real long. Hopefully, a fin with these simple dimensions will last for more than a month or two. Thanks for any input.

    Hi Anna, thanks for the video. I watched it awhile ago, but it was good to take a "refresher course" again. I really appreciate that you all took time to review all those fins for us swimmers! I must be mistreating my fins--I really loved the Speedo Optimum training fin, but when they changed the fin, they barely lasted a month before the toe pocket would split. Switched to the TYR Crossblade--they feel heavier on my feet--they split within 2 to 3 months. In the past, my fins used to last until they fell off my feet from being so stretched. I'm mystified as to what's happening now that is causing them to split like this.
