Industry Expert Review by Run Moore

Real Runners

Why Runners Love Veloci

★ Our Favorite Customer Review Real runners. Real results. "I am a two-time full Ironman finisher. Somehow this no-name company has beat out Hoka. They are light as a feather, stiff enough to protect, have the drop to take strain off the calf, and have a wide toe box which Hoka does NOT have. I was blown away by the best running shoe I have ever worn." Mark C. — Texas Individual results may vary. This shoe is not intended to treat or prevent any medical condition.

A Letter From The Founder

"Half of all runners get hurt every year. I was one of them. So I built the shoe I wanted for myself."

As a former Division I runner, running shoes hurt the front of my feet from the narrow toe boxes of traditional shoes. Barefoot and minimalist shoes offered a more spacious toe box, but left my calves and Achilles aching.

While working in running stores, I saw the same thing every day: people leaving in the best available shoe, but not the right one. So we built the one I’d been looking for, with modern cushioning and support, paired with a toe box shaped the way your foot actually is. We can't wait to hear how you love your pair!

Great sneakers

I was waiting to give a better more factual review, I’ve ran in these sneakers a few times now and they are really comfortable. Love the extra space in my toes and my Achilles is not screaming after my runs.. besides they look really cute

Best. Shoe. Ever.

I was already a fan of Veloci, but when the Mesa style shoe came out I became an even bigger fan! I love the colors and more importantly how my feet feel after a run! No pain and the stability shoe seems to be the perfect fit(pun intended) for my feet! I love Veloci and highly recommend to runners and walkers of all levels!

Unbelievably impressed!!

I’m 62 and I’ve never written a review, but this is worth taking the time for. I have been running for years and constantly struggle with finding shoes I can run in because of my bunions. Even though I felt it was a huge risk. I went ahead and purchased these shoes based on the reviews. For the first time in a long time, I have no pain when running. That was starting with the very first run. I used to have to wear thick socks with a gel Band-Aid over the bunion. Now I am able to wear regular running socks. I cannot express enough how grateful I am to have found these shoes.

Great running shoes!

Great running shoes! I run 7-8 miles 7 days a week and my feet and legs love the stability and wide toe box. I have really enjoyed wearing these!

I was surprised by how much my feet hurt!

I was surprised by how much my feet hurt after wearing them for the first time. Especially my heels and arches. Maybe I wore them for too long? I will now try to ease into them only wearing them for a couple of hours at a time.

The only shoes I'll wear now

I'm not a runner, but I wore these shoes on a rigorous, several week walking tour in Europe. They also became my go-to shoes for a major bike trip! I now wear these shoes daily and have bought a second pair in fear that they will stop making them! That's how much I value these shoes. I have problem feet--bunions, occasional plantar fasciitis, also sometimes shin splints. Finding a shoe on the market that is wide enough; supportive enough; durable; and also attractive is difficult to nearly impossible. No matter the brand, it seems that most running/walking shoes are the SAME shoe and do not work for me. There is no question that Veloci shoes are different. I do wonder why the shoes aren't available in running shoe stores or other shoe stores yet and if they soon will be especially since they exceed so much that is on the market. It will also be great, if the company expands, to make the MESA available in darker colors. Thank you Veloci! You're doing something unique and truly right! I'm enjoying recommending your shoes to others as well.

When I originally bought these shoes I purchased

When I originally bought these shoes I purchased the wrong size & had to exchange them. The customer service that I was provided was exceptional. They dealt with all my questions & were very understanding of the stress I was under with receiving the new pair prior to me relocating to another state. The shoes didn’t arrive unfortunately before I moved and after letting them know they replaced those shoes and sent them to the new address. I bought these to wear for work as I work in a hospital and am on my feet all day and tried them there and was happy. I’ve since started running again after a very long hiatus and the fact that my feet and knees don’t bother me has gotten me really excited and looking forward to the next run.

I have been a runner for years and have constantly had issues with my bunions. These are the first shoes I have felt not only no pain, but actual comfort! 200% recommend!

Great shoe!

I have been dealing with heel pain for a year. I have gone through PT and had new orthotics made. I gave these shoes a try and I can now go on walks, stand for several hours and have little to no pain. I am not using my orthotics either.
I do wish they came in darker colors and a waterproof version would be a great addition.

Not for high arches

I love the look and feel of these, but after wearing for exercise walks the shoes were killing me on the top of my foot, right where my arch is. I cannot wear them anymore and unfortunately I threw the box away that they came in so cannot return them. I would also follow the recommendation to go up 1/2 size

This shoe works for me. I am at an unhealthy weight gor my height and started walking the recommended 10K steps. B/c of my weight, my feet hurt, my ankles hurt, i had blisters. I didnt give up. I tried every name brand out there but they were either too hard or too soft. As Goldilocks would say, “These are perfect” This shoe is perfectly engineered. I can do 10K with practically no pain (each lb lost decreases pain). Ty to whoever engineered these. One suggestion: can you make a pure white one?

Perfect fit

Perfect fit , comfort, and support.
My toes say, “ahhh”. Fantastic right out of the box. Great for many foot and leg ailments. Found out through a running store in Galveston. Happy that a Texas Based company. Will be buying more. My 2nd pair in 3 mos. Im addicted. Need more colors.

I am usually disappointed in new shoes but THESE ARE GREAT!!

I am usually disappointed in new shoes. As I've aged my feet have changed (along with other body parts) and now along with high arches and narrow heels I need a wider toe box. In the past, that has always meant a shoe that was overall too big. If I bought for width and heels, it was squeezing my toes.

But I decided to give these a try (after buying Hokas, Brooks, etc.) and have been so pleased! My toes are happy and not rubbing together. My heels are staying in place. My knees and low back are happy.

BTW, I am NOT a runner, but I am on my feet ALL DAY everyday (I work with dogs, am in the kitchen, etc). I am bowlegged and have spinal stenosis, so when I say I'm not in pain it's kind of big deal.

Looking forward to buying another pair! I need colors! Pink! Blue! Please!

Poor customer service

The shoe has promise but the customer service is not good, especially for a smaller company. Although I am an athlete with a neutral gait I was advised to try the Mesa with the idea that it would be better for other activities in addition to running. The shoe forced my foot to evert which led to knee pain. I have never had knee pain before wearing this shoe. I am not sure if I it was AI responding to me but the customer service was seriously lacking especially after recommending a shoe to me without considering my gait.
