Zusammenfassung:A steering system includes a movable member (45) and a tooth member (43). The movable member (45) includes first tooth arrangements (52L). The movable member (45) is movable together with a column jacket in a tilt direction. The movable member (45) is movable in a right-left direction. The tooth member (43) is supported by a lateral plate (30) of an upper bracket (6) so that the tooth member (43) is located between the movable member (45) and the lateral plate (30) in the right-left direction. The tooth member (43) includes: second tooth arrangements (60L) engageable with the first tooth arrangements (52L); and curved elastic portions (61) supporting the second tooth arrangements (60L), with the second tooth arrangements (60L) inclined toward the upper bracket (6) such that the second tooth arrangements (60L) are away from the first tooth arrangements (52L). When the elastic portions (61) are sandwiched between the movable member (45) and the lateral plate (30) and elastically deformed, the second tooth arrangements (60L) come into engagement with the first tooth arrangements (52L).
