Skinnier means faster sprints up climbs.
The only difference between So Ill''s Runner LV Climbing Shoe and its bluer brother is the lower volume that accommodates a skinnier foot. Ideal for boulders and routes at the gym, this shoe sports a moderate downturn with thin midsole so your toes can feel the subtlest jibs on vertical to overhung climbs. Its Dark Matter rubber comes from So Ill''s Unparallel Rubber family, which the US Navy Seals use for reliable traction during covert missions, and its non-marking convenience ensures long-lasting durability. The synthetic upper features a padded tongue, and since it won''t stretch much, So Ill recommends sizing this shoe like a regular street shoe.
