So I should have just sucked it up and bought the Rapid, but this was on sale and cute. I got the Aquarious a couple months ago. I stored it well and cleaned it nicely. Yet, I put it on today and somehow between this swim and the one a few days ago the foot pocket tore and one of the straps broke while I tightened it. >.< is it possible to repair it, perhaps by sealing the edge again with caulking?

I can post pics here in a bit of needed.

I'm sorry that happened! I had a foot pocket tear on my rapid after its third use or so and it was not a good feeling. It seems like it just happens sometimes.
Have you tried contacting finis to see if they can do anything for you? They've been pretty helpful for other people.

I haven't actually. I bought it through Amazon so I wasn't sure they could do much. I'll try emailing them! Thanks for the suggestion!

You could remove the rubber parts of the foot pockets and then gluing on water shoes.
