The Velocity is built on Vasque's Arc Tempo last, which is ideal for feet with higher arches and features a medium-volume heel.

• Midsole: Dual-Density EVA Ultimate Fit Fit is about comfort, but the fit of the shoe can also enhance your performance. Vasque takes this notion to an art form. By going to great lengths to understand foot anatomy and function, Vasque's shoe designs offer multiple fit options to better address a wider range of foot shapes. This process starts with the last—the mold that the shoe is constructed around. Vasque's lasts are designed for a variety of foot shapes. The fit of the shoe can also affect the biomechanics of the foot and ultimately performance on the trail. Vasque shoes offer the ultimate fit for both comfort AND performance. Arc Tempo Last Vasque's Arc Tempo last creates an athletic fit that promotes quickness and agility over technical ground. The asymmetrical curve is ideal for people with higher arches and also places your foot in a more powerful position during toe off. This aggressive toe spring facilitates rapid obstacle clearance. The tapered toe box offers adequate room without wasted space. And the medium volume heel fits a wide range of shapes. It's perfect for shorter distances on technical trails. Women's Specific Fit Vasque understands that women’s feet are anatomically different than men’s in several fundamental ways. In order to enhance comfort and performance for women, they adjust their lasts to fit them properly. Thus, every one of Vasque women’s shoes is formed on a last adjusted to fit women’s specifically. These lasts are precision contoured differently from men’s in these key ways: Narrower heel pocket, added support in the instep, heel to ball ratio adjusted (relationship between the first and fifth metatarsal heads or flex zone) and higher arches. It allows Vasque to create a more exact and comfortable fit and stronger performance.
