My fins seemed to have grown some kind of funky mold. I have tried scrubbing them with different mold cleaners and
cant get rid of it. Anybody else have fins that have this? Any recommendations on a way to get rid of this mold.

Hey,
it is mildew - not mold. Not much you can do except try bleach and scrub.
Going forward - make sure the fins are dry instead of sitting in your mesh bag and damp all the time.
One of the reasons I don't use equipment. :)
Thank you! My fellow master swimmers have been making fun of me...they say the fins looked diseased:) I might just have to spring for a new pair and dry them off after practice.
I hang my "toy bag" in the garage so that air can flow thru it till the next use. Never had this problem.
Maybe rinse off with tap water and air dry in the open to prevent future fungi?
