The Under Armour Velociti Elite may have been the new kid on the super shoe block when it first released, but it quickly proved the running world it belonged thanks to Sharon Lokedi's victory in them at the NYC Marathon in '22. The second version looks to continue that winning pedigree. With upgrades in key areas and even more midsole cushioning than before, it will come as no surprise to see the Velociti Elite 2 leading the pack at a race near you.

As mentioned, the biggest upgrade we see in version 2 is the added cushioning. Despite featuring the same dual-layer setup, the Velociti Elite 2 gets 3.5 mm more stack in the heel and a whopping 9.5 mm more stack in the forefoot. Not only are runners gaining more soft and responsive cushioning, but the update's lower heel-toe offset provides improved efficiency and delivers a smoother turnover. Additionally, the foam is paired with a more scooped-shaped, full-length Thermoset Carbon plate. The result is an even more explosive ride than in the first version making that PR more attainable than ever.

Returning in the Velociti Elite 2 is the Supercritical Flow foam outsole that delivers durable traction while keeping weight as low as possible. And wrapping this shoe up is the Warp Upper that features reduces tape lines for a lighter and more anatomical fit.

Overall, the Under Armour Velociti Elite 2 is ready to push the limits by delivering a racing product that produces podium finishers and offers marathon racers the opportunity to run the race of their lives.
