Built tough for rugged terrain, and it offers a dual density EVA midsole for motion control.
For off-road running that goes beyond the soft surface paths at the city park, the rugged Vasque Women's Velocity Trail Running Shoe gives you the protection and support necessary to hop up and over boulders, jump across streams, and grind up narrow ridge routes. For intense workouts such as these, support and stability is needed from all of the shoe's components. The 1.2mm synthetic nubuck and breathable airmesh upper with welded thermoplastic urethane (TPU) reinforcing offers support without causing the foot to overheat. Underneath the foot a TPU plate provides protection from gnarly roots, jagged rocks, and torsion control over uneven terrain in general. This plate sits immediately above the Vasque Mako outsole and gives you confidence when running on rock slabs, descending switchbacks, or making your way up a pebble-strewn logging road. And above the TPU plate a dual density molded EVA midsole offers cushioning and motion control that becomes increasingly important as the mileage piles up. The Vasque Velocity Trail Running Shoe for women includes a Beneke-Ceroprene rand to provide even more protection from the wilderness floor, and a gusseted tongue to help shed debris.

Great Shoe
I bought the blue color when they had it in stock. The shoe is very comfortable and didn't need anytime to break in. I would definitely recommend the shoe to friends. Altrec customer service is awesome!
Excellent shoe!
These shoes far exceeded my expectations. They have great support, run true to size and are very high quality. The sole looks extremely durable and has great traction that will work under muddy conditions. The dusty blue is a muted tone that will not make larger feet look bigger, will not clash with other gear and the styling is attractive. I agree with others that this shoe will not need to be broken in prior to wear, very comfortable from the start.
Great Shoe!
The Velocity is SO Comfortable while also offering great support, and they are nice looking too! Compared with the AMP, they are just a bit longer in length, but I still order my true size.
Different sizing
I ordered the Vasque Velocity after trying on the similar Vasque Velocity VST. This shoe has a smaller toe box and the 8.5 was too small, so I had to return them. Also, the arch support is much better in the VST. I think Vasque has a great product, I just think that the VST is the better shoe for me.
Love these shoes
I just purchased my second pair. I run trails 4 to 5 days per week, 4-6 miles each time. I cross all types of terrain...gravel, dirt roads, sand by the river, dirt packed trails and have to manuever over roots and climb over rocks. These shoes have never let me down and have probably prevented broken toes on more than one occasion. The grip is excellent and allows me to cross large, sometimes wet rocks without slipping. Very comfortable...zero break in period. Both times my new shoes arrived I put them on and went running.
