NEW CLIMBING SHOES + FREE SHIPPING OVER $150

Roam Rigid

  • Designed and built on a hand-shaped, downturned last by Fred Nicole, ROAM Rigid is a semi-stiff slipper developed with Jason Momoa as part of the So iLL x On The Roam collection. ROAM Rigid features a three-way stretch knit entry with an elastic band stitched to a durable, comfortable, unlined vegan microsuede upper. This shoe is tensioned from under the toe to the back of the heel while the laser etched rand generates tension as well. The midsole is composed of a thin proprietary fiberboard with a center cut out for the flexibility/edging. The outsole is split and outfitted with Vibram XS Grip Rubber which extends in a wide band to the top of the heel. ROAM Rigid is ideal for all types of angles and perfect for those who like a sensitive slipper with a little more support (than ROAM Soft). This shoe is also more adaptable to sport climbing with good edging and great heel/toe hooking abilities. It is, perhaps, the best shoe in our lineup, to date, for edging overall.

Create/Design

We’ve spent the last three years (and maybe a little longer) concepting, designing, and sampling with Fred Nicole – a true climbing hero and expert in the field.

Testing

Extensive testing in the field, including in Fred Nicole's home of Switzerland, have been poured into the Roam Rigid.

Industry Defining Rubber

High performance Vibram XS GRIP climbing rubber is great for long wearing grip, good shape stability, edging, durability, and excellent performance in all around climbing conditions.
