Soft Cushioning and Long-Distance Comfort with a Responsive Feel
The Under Armour Velociti Distance Women's is designed for runners who want to go further with comfort while maintaining a smooth, efficient stride. Built for long-distance training, it combines soft cushioning with responsive energy return to support every kilometre.
The updated UA HOVR+™ superfoam delivers a lighter and softer ride, helping absorb impact while returning energy with each step. Additional cushioning in the heel helps reduce stress on joints, making it ideal for longer runs and higher mileage training.
A translucent mono mesh upper provides lightweight breathability, while the internal midfoot cage improves structure and lockdown. The traditional collar and tongue ensure a secure and comfortable fit throughout your run.
Who This Shoe Is For

The Run That Carries You Further
There’s always a moment in a long run where it starts to feel harder.
Your legs get heavy, your stride shortens, and the distance ahead feels longer than expected.
The Velociti Distance is built for that moment.
The extra cushioning softens the impact when fatigue sets in, while the responsive foam helps you keep moving forward without losing rhythm.
It’s not just about getting through the run — it’s about finishing strong.
And once runners find a shoe that supports them through those longer miles, it quickly becomes a non-negotiable part of their training.
