I am absolutely stoked to see y'all are back! I noticed REI was carrying the Stay's and just ordered a pair. I love that your company cares about aesthetics not just functionality. It looks like more research went into these on the functionality front, so I am excited to try out the Stay's.
Just a quick note: we (WeighMyRack) are not affiliated with SoiLL or any other brand. We’re just a climbing gear information resource. Just wanted to make that crystal clear. But the brands do read these comments from time to time :)
They look so sick. Nice step up for So ILL. Will try them for sure when they available in Europe. Also great that you get Vibram. Sidefact: I like the idea with different models from different designers. For me Fred Nicole is a legend.
@@ThijsFTW They will be available in Europe. The current estimate on availability in Europe is 2024. Just stay tuned on our social media platforms. We try to share everything there. Thank you for asking!
I know it’s hard but so ill really need to get there shoes on more pros feet. unparrelled done the right thing and threw there shoes at every RUclips climber they could and now they have a decent following in the UK. so ill need more than Jason Mamoa I’m sad to say. just my 2c
I think the Street and the Unnamed Vanilla Slipper look the best aesthetically? For some reason the Torque looks a little unbalanced to me. But otherwise yeah excited for these!
I wish we had that information. Most of the shoes aren't yet finalized so I imagine SoiLL doesn't even know yet, I think we'll have to wait until the shoes are released to know for sure.
I have never got a So Ill shoe, its always hard to move to a more unknown brand when these products cost so much (climbing shoes in general) the way this company is marketing, developing and working on the product is super impressive. Cool to see vibram on a no european shoe, i do wonder why for the bouldering shoe the 'stay' why xs grip 2 wasnt the selection? having had tanaya on the same rubber it is noticable on the slab wall. excited for the stay as a longer lasting boulder shoe for training. They should last longer on that rubber. very keen on the stiff ones for indoor lead where the choice in rubber is less of an issue. Butora, madrock, ocun and EB have a bit to learn off of the marketing. keep appearing infront of videos as more info on these shoes the better. Love the way So iLL are handling the marketing and research front very impressive there. would be amazing to see some world cupo atheletes rocking these aswell, if So iLL gain the performance rep of even just evolv or tanaya they will be a big deal in a few years
@@thesii213 where do you find what shoes he's designed, on his linked in it says he worked at butora and evolv but can't seem to find what shoes he's done? I suppose brands can be a bit secretive!
@@v0atmygym734 Yeah, the last and shape is really the critical thing here. I like Scarpa, but some of their recent offerings have had some bizarre lasts (looking at you enormous Quantic heel).
So... idk if anyone else is thinking this but the look/ esthetic is what initially drew me in to SoIll. After seeing everyone at the gym rocking La Spo's and other popular brands, I wanted to find a brand that wasn't as popular. Discovered So Ill and man oh man, what a breath of fresh air. For once, there were climbing shoes that looked dope and not like someone picked designs out of a child's coloring book. I got really stoked to see the collabs that they were doing at the time with REI and TOMS. But... to see the direction they're heading, I feel disappointed. Every single one of these shoes looks... ugly? I'd like to see So Ill get back to their more fashion conscious look. Anytime I went to the gym or outdoors, I felt "cool" wearing their shoes. I can't say I'd be stoked to pull up wearing any of these models.

@@WeighMyRack yeah I understood that. Just figured I would show support for SoiLL.
Just wanted to say how nice their booth is. As someone whose been to a lot of trade shows this is a serious step above.
SoiLL has always nailed the branding in my opinion
Psyched on the torque as an outdoor boulderer!

These are looking awesome. When does the line come out?
The Street: snp.link/6f5ba546
and
Stay: snp.link/50e2d227
are available at REI now. The other models are going to be dropping throughout the year
@@WeighMyRack Are they coming out in Europe too?

If you're talking about the upper middle shoe, it's called Catch :) It's a light "Bog" green :)
@@TAKEHOLD It's the one at 7:08! And yep, looking forward to trying these!
What will be the largest size of the LV models? (as a man with low volume I always struggle that the women lasts are available only in smaller sizes)
I wish we had that information. Most of the shoes aren't yet finalized so I imagine SoiLL doesn't even know yet, I think we'll have to wait until the shoes are released to know for sure.
Our regular volume and low volume shoe model size range is Men's 4.5/Women's 6 to Men's 13/Women's 14.5. Thanks for asking!

Xs grip 2 is an exclusive compound to la sportiva and Scarpa.
You've got just two minutes of empty black screen at the end there.
Thanks for the feedback!!! It's been removed.
It'll be hard to win me back to So ill after my experiences with their other shoes. I'll wait to see what others say before I consider them again.
Same, but... I think Jae Jung is the man. Guy designed my favorite shoes at Butora.
@@thesii213 where do you find what shoes he's designed, on his linked in it says he worked at butora and evolv but can't seem to find what shoes he's done? I suppose brands can be a bit secretive!
@@tiktian Ah there might be an NDA there actually. So let me just say the best ones at Butora?
"our shoes were a bit shit" Now they are average...
* the only thing we have to do with those shoes was we picked the colours* oioioii....
Love Fred Nicole ❤
Comapred to the technolgy behind some of the scarpa and la sportiva shoes it just seems lackluster; the shoes just seem rather basic
Just wait on it. People live and die by the original pre-adidas five ten hiangle and those were pretty minimal aggressive climbing shoes.
@@v0atmygym734 Yeah, the last and shape is really the critical thing here. I like Scarpa, but some of their recent offerings have had some bizarre lasts (looking at you enormous Quantic heel).
So glad it's now vibram over dark matter!!
