Velocity NITRO 5
A neutral road trainer for recovery runs, mileage building and longer weekend efforts. Version 5 widens the NITROFOAM platform and adds forefoot cushioning compared with its predecessor. Engineered mesh emphasizes breathability and stretch, while PUMAGRIP rubber provides multi-surface traction. Its everyday-training role is not limited to a particular pace or distance.
