PUMA Velocity NITRO 5 • PUMA White/Ultra Red/Light Lavender
The women's PUMA Velocity NITRO 5 in PUMA White/Ultra Red/Light Lavender is a versatile neutral shoe for the miles you run most often. NITROFOAM cushions your landing and adds a responsive feel, while the engineered mesh upper helps air circulate. PUMAGRIP rubber gives this daily trainer a practical foundation for everything from an easy jog to a longer road run.

Why you’ll like it
- NITROFOAM cushioning: Nitrogen-injected foam provides a responsive buffer underfoot without the tall feel of a maximal shoe.
- PUMAGRIP traction: A durable rubber outsole helps the shoe grip paved routes through your stride.
- Engineered mesh comfort: An airy upper helps manage heat during everyday training.
- Recycled content: PUMA specifies at least 30% recycled materials in the upper; this applies to the upper, not the entire shoe.
Fit & feel
PUMA lists a regular fit with a lace-up closure. This page uses women's sizing and B (regular) width. The medium cushioning offers a useful balance of protection and connection to the ground. Try it with the socks you will run in, checking space at the toes and a secure heel.
Where it fits your day
A versatile choice for easy runs, run-walk sessions, everyday mileage and longer road training. Walkers, commuters and travelers may also appreciate its cushioned feel. It is a running trainer rather than a purpose-built shoe for heavy lifting, court sports or technical trails.
