Product Information

Full details

The Under Armour Velociti Distance Trainers are designed for adult male runners seeking optimal cushioning and flexibility on long runs, suitable for any climate in dry conditions. Their key benefit is the new, full-length UA HOVR+ foam providing a lighter, softer, and superior underfoot feel. A potential caveat is that the translucent mono mesh upper, while breathable, exposes the internal cage, which may not appeal to all aesthetic preferences.

FAQs

What type of runner is the Velociti Distance trainer best for?

These trainers are best for adult male runners who need a balance of flexibility and cushioning, especially for long-distance runs in dry conditions.

How does the UA HOVR+ foam differ from previous foams?

The new, full-length UA HOVR+ foam is specifically designed to be lighter and softer, providing a superior cushioning experience on long runs.

Can I use these shoes for racing?

While they offer excellent cushioning for long efforts, they are primarily designed for training runs. Their weight and cushioning profile are geared towards sustained comfort rather than pure speed.

Are these shoes waterproof?

The shoes are designed for any climate in dry conditions. The mono mesh upper is breathable but not waterproof.

What is the offset of these shoes?

The offset is 6mm, which is typical for modern running shoes and promotes a balanced feel between the heel and forefoot.

How should I clean my Velociti Distance trainers?

Clean with a damp cloth and mild soap, then air dry. Avoid machine washing or tumble drying to preserve the materials.

What is the weight of the shoe?

The weight is approximately 10.5 oz.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight

Loosen the laces, adjust the tongue position, or consider replacing the insole with a thinner one if space is limited.

Reduced cushioning after many miles

The HOVR+ foam may naturally compress over time. Consider replacement if significant performance degradation occurs, typically after hundreds of miles.

Upper material feels flimsy

The translucent mono mesh is designed for lightness and breathability; this is normal. Ensure the internal cage provides adequate support and the laces are tied correctly.

Slight rubbing or discomfort

Break in the shoes with shorter runs. Ensure socks are appropriate and consider if the lacing needs adjustment to relieve pressure points.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Exceptional cushioning for long-distance comfort.
  • Lightweight and breathable upper design.
  • Secure and comfortable fit due to traditional collar and tongue.
  • Durable construction suitable for various dry conditions.
  • Aesthetically unique with visible internal components.

Cons

  • May not offer sufficient stability for overpronators.
  • Translucent upper's internal cage may be a style deterrent for some.
  • Primarily designed for dry conditions, performance in wet weather is not specified.
  • Standard tie lace system may require frequent adjustment for some users.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: These shoes are ready to wear out of the box. Ensure they fit comfortably before your first run. The standard tie lacing system allows for personalized tightness. The removable insole can be replaced with custom orthotics if desired.

Compatibility: Designed as neutral running shoes, they are best suited for runners with a neutral pronation. They are recommended for dry, paved surfaces and various climates. Their performance in wet conditions or on trails is not their primary design focus.

Care: To maintain the trainers' condition:

  1. Remove insoles and laces.
  2. Brush off loose dirt and debris with a soft brush.
  3. Use a damp cloth with mild soap and water to clean the upper and midsole.
  4. Air dry naturally away from direct heat.
  5. Do not machine wash or tumble dry.
