Under Armour Velociti Elite 2 Review: Multi-tester verdict on Under Armour's second gen carbon racer

[@ch4r9ed11]

Hey guys love the stats you have now on your paces and runs so we can compare what your saying to each shoe. Makes it much more relatable and easier to understand 👍👍👍

Ive never ran in any of the other super shoes but i ran a marathon in the velociti elite v2 in march and got a PB and enjoyed training in them as well. The toe box was accomodating but low volume. The midfoot is narrow and snug. No issues with the heel. Upper was very light and breathable. The combination of the foams and carbon plate gave a firm but responsive feel and combined with the rocker i felt like the shoe encouraged me to run faster. Definitely a low drop shoe but i like lower drop. As all the reviewers said my main con would be the weight. I think in the next version they should drop the flow foam and just use the race foam with rubber. That would probably make the shoe lighter and provide better grip. I think this shoe felt best during intervals and tempo runs and would be a great super trainer. If youre a midfoot or forefoot striker I think the mechanics of this shoe would work for you. My advice would be to wait for a sale and pick this shoe up as a super trainer or budget racer for anything from 10k to full marathon. Under armour always has sales and i got my pair for 40% off and at that price I think its a great shoe. If i had to pay full price I would go with some of the other brands.

Heyy...Listening for all the people (like myself) asking for your Stats on the videos. Big thumbs up!! 👍👍

I really enjoy these shoes and recently set a PB in them. One factor worth considering is UA's sales model. At least here in Canada they run promotions all the time. The last 2 races I entered both came with 40% off UA coupons, so I picked these up for less than a mid range shoe, and for that price they're unbeatable.

Update: Love you guys - LOVE this shoe for road tempo runs and very long (25 mile plus) road training. But as a Newton guy, Sub-3:00 marathon in the Newton Distance Elite in my 50s, I congratulate UA for creating a non-squishy, lower drop shoe. I would love an Ultra Road-Trail version with the same 2.0 drop.

[@bmdecker93]

I'm definitely impressed. I've tried almost a dozen carbon platers and these are rock solid racers.

[@JDeezle21]

Agreed. I like these Elite 2's and the Velociti 3's & Altra Torin 7's my daily rotation.

[@stevenlennie]

Really enjoy the v1 of this shoes for my speed session/intervals, especially as you can pick them up for £100 now

[@JDeezle21]

These V2's feel like road spikes ❤

[@TrailrunnerTroy]

Really enjoying as a training shoe! But not a racer for me. Definitely the best UA running shoe to date.

[@burntorangehorn]

I found some colorways under $81 USD today. Would it be better than the Mach 6 for tempos and intervals?

[@petekadenz9465]

Are there any low drop super shoes that focus on comfort?

[@Kalvi]

Under Armour website states it as a 8mm drop 🤔🤔

[@JDeezle21]

Got these for a good deal and they are good for me but I'm more of a sprinter and 5k-10k runner

[@JDeezle21]

Great for speed training

[@carlstoakes6240]

Quite heavy then compared to other CF racers.

[@LakeMinnetonka]

The fella with the black hat never has a good experience with any shoe 😂 buddy needs to stick to stability shoes

[@TheHutchRuns]

Sounds expensive if it will only appeal to a niche market

[@antoinejacques9310]

Design is so inspired by Puma, it's border line copy at that point

[@eternalbliss3487]

What? How? They’re so distinct. Which Puma is similar to this?

[@hamshipey4279]

it's an ugly show
