Product Information
Full details
These Under Armour Velociti Pace trainers are designed for adult female runners seeking a balance of flexibility and cushioning. Their key benefit lies in the responsive UA HOVR™ cushioning, which reduces impact and returns energy for a forward-moving feel. A potential caveat is the neutral support, which may not be ideal for runners needing significant pronation control. Key features include a single-layer mesh upper for breathability, a midfoot and forefoot internal cage for support, and a full-length rubber outsole for reliable traction.

FAQs
What type of runner is the Velociti Pace designed for?
The Velociti Pace is designed for neutral runners who need a balance between flexibility and cushioning. It is suitable for daily training, tempo runs, and shorter race distances.
How does the UA HOVR™ cushioning work?
UA HOVR™ cushioning creates a 'zero gravity feel' to maintain energy return, helping reduce impact against the ground and returning energy to help you move forward.
Can I wear these for cross-training activities?
While they offer good comfort and support, these trainers are primarily optimized for running. For intense cross-training involving lateral movements, dedicated cross-training shoes might be more suitable.
How do I know if I have a neutral foot type?
Neutral runners typically have feet that roll inward a normal amount. If you're unsure, consult a running specialist or observe your wear patterns on older shoes (even wear on the ball of the foot and heel often indicates a neutral gait).
Are these shoes waterproof?
No, the Velociti Pace features a breathable mesh upper that is not waterproof. They are designed for breathability in dry or mildly wet conditions, not heavy rain.
What is the main benefit of the internal cage?
The internal cage in the midfoot and forefoot provides targeted support and a secure lockdown, enhancing stability during your runs.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight or too loose.
Adjust the lacing system for a more customized fit. Ensure you have selected the correct UK size based on Under Armour's sizing guide.
Reduced cushioning effectiveness over time.
While HOVR™ cushioning is durable, its responsiveness may decrease with extensive use. Consider replacement after significant mileage (typically 300-500 miles).
Traction feels slippery on wet surfaces.
The full-length rubber outsole provides good traction, but performance on extremely wet or slick surfaces may be reduced. Clean the outsole of debris for optimal grip.
Feet feel too warm during runs.
The mesh upper is breathable, but if excessive heat is an issue, consider wearing moisture-wicking socks. These shoes are best suited for mild to warm weather.
