FAQs
What type of runner is the Velociti Elite 2 designed for?
These trainers are specifically designed for neutral runners who need a balance of flexibility and cushioning. They are ideal for adult, unisex runners participating in long and mid-distance races like marathons.
What is UA Flow technology?
UA Flow is Under Armour's newest cushioning technology. It eliminates the rubber outsole, creating a more lightweight, seamless, and grippy ride with enhanced ground feel.
How do I clean my Velociti Elite 2 trainers?
You should wipe the trainers clean with a slightly damp cloth. Avoid machine washing or using harsh detergents to maintain the integrity of the materials.
Are these shoes suitable for trail running?
No, these trainers are best suited for road running and track surfaces. The UA Flow outsole provides good traction on these surfaces but is not designed for the demands of trail running.
What is the offset and weight of these trainers?
The shoes have an 8mm offset and weigh approximately 8.2 oz.
Do these trainers offer good visibility in the dark?
Yes, they feature 360° reflectivity, which enhances visibility for runners in low-light conditions.
How does the carbon fiber plate benefit my run?
The full-length carbon fiber plate is engineered to deliver explosive lift-offs with every stride, providing a propulsive and efficient running experience.
Where are these trainers made?
These trainers are imported.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight or loose
Adjust the lacing. For a tighter fit, pull the laces more firmly; for a looser feel, loosen the laces. Ensure you are wearing the correct size, as these are designed for a standard fit.
Reduced grip on wet surfaces
While UA Flow offers good traction, performance on very wet or slick surfaces may be reduced. Exercise caution in such conditions. Ensure the outsole is free from debris.
Discomfort during runs
Ensure the shoes are broken in properly. If discomfort persists, check your sock choice and lacing. These shoes are designed for neutral runners; consider if your gait type is compatible.
Accelerated wear on outsole
The EVA outsole is designed for lightweight performance. High-mileage runners or those who frequently run on abrasive surfaces may notice faster wear compared to traditional rubber. Focus on smooth surfaces for optimal longevity.
Pros and Cons

- Responsive cushioning and propulsion from the carbon fiber plate.
- Breathable upper keeps feet cool during long runs.
- Excellent ground feel and grip due to UA Flow technology.
- Increased safety with 360° reflective elements.
Cons
- Best suited for neutral runners; may not provide adequate support for overpronators.
- The rubberless design might offer less durability on abrasive surfaces over extended periods compared to traditional outsoles.
