Step
The So iLL Step is the perfect shoe for climbers who want an advanced beginner shoe. Designed with a focus on comfort and accessibility, it offers a slight downturn that helps with precision without the aggressive foot-cramp of a high-performance model.
Featuring a durable and breathable synthetic upper, the Step ensures a consistent fit that won't stretch out over time. Its large hook-and-loop strap makes fastening easy, while the split-sole provides the stability needed for long gym sessions and outdoor vertical faces alike.
Reliable Grip
Equipped with high-friction rubber that performs reliably both indoors and outdoors.
All-Day Comfort
A regular-volume fit designed to be worn for extended periods without discomfort.
Street RV/LV
The So iLL Street is an intermediate shoe designed from scratch using a custom-shaped, downturned last. Crafted with insights from climbing legends Jae Jung and Fred Nicole, it strikes a perfect balance between precision and durability.
The upper is made from unlined, vegan microsuede, providing a comfortable yet secure feel that won't lose its shape. Featuring a dual-strap closure with D-ring integration, the Street offers a locked-in fit essential for technical intermediate climbing both indoors and at the crag.

The shoe features a unique molded midsole board along the outer edges, in the shape of a goat hoof, providing optimal stiffness and support where it's needed most. With Vibram XS GRIP rubber on both the toe and heel, it is engineered for high-level sensitivity and overhang routes where heel hooking is needed.

Adjustable Velcro strap allows for personalized tension from the ankle to the base of the forefoot.
Precision Edging
Toe rubber thickness is balanced for maximum stability on small holds without losing feel.
Stay RV/LV
