- Ideal for advanced-level climbers
- Downturned shoes help maximize performance on more aggressive terrain, such as overhanging walls, or during movement that requires meticulous footwork
- Very soft shoes with downturned, 35° medium asymmetry are ideal for vertical and overhung climbing, and give enough support for small edging or slab
- 6-piece, vegan microsuede uppers with a single-strap closure system and D-ring integration provide a precise fit
- Dual nylon webbing pull tabs at the heels make on/off easy
- Thin fishhook midsoles
- Elastic gore tongues with pull tabs
- Split outsoles outfitted with high-performance Vibram XS Grip rubber for edging and durability; generous toe rubber coverage for all your hooking needs
- Custom-molded heel outsoles, heel rands and toe rands with integrated toe patches
- Rubber thickness: 3 mm heel outsoles; 2.3 mm heel tension; 2 mm toe rands; 2.5 mm toe patches
- Thinner rubber generates sensitivity and a large contact patch when smearing on slab
- So iLL recommends ordering your regular U.S. street shoe size
