VJ Ultra 2 Trail Running Shoes – the same, but better. One of the most popular VJ shoes gets an update! The new Ultra 2 offers more protection, more stability and more durability thanks to the new sole pattern and rock plate.
Developed with input from elite runners, the VJ Ultra 2 is outstanding for longer distances, as the name implies. It is also an excellent choice for shorter distances when you want a little extra cushioning and comfort. To ensure exceptional grip, the Superior Contact outsole is made of VJ’s own famous butyl rubber.
The last is a medium +, which is suitable for most runners. The added toe space gives you some extra balance and comfort.

Rock plate & redesigned sole pattern
As a new added feature to battle the unpredictable and rough terrain, the shoe now includes a rock plate which protects the foot from sharp rocks and sticks and makes the shoe torsionally more rigid.
Durable mesh-upper with aramid fibers
Durable and breathable upper is a mix of aramid fibers and nylon. It excels in the toughest of terrains and endures all conditions.
Fitlock ensures fit
VJ’s innovative Fitlock-system offers an optimal fit for the shoe by locking the foot from the arch. It also protects the arch from the impacts the foot is facing while running.
If you are looking for a well-cushioned trail shoe, but are not willing to compromise on weight or responsiveness, the VJ Ultra 2 is for you.

[accordion-item title=”▸ How to measure your foot”]
For the best fit, measure your foot at home before ordering. It takes 2 minutes.
Place a sheet of paper on the floor against a wall.
Put on the same socks you would wear with these shoes.
Stand on the paper with your heel touching the wall, foot straight.
Ask someone to mark the tip of your longest toe. Repeat both feet — use the longer measurement.
Measure heel to mark in cm. Use the size chart below to find your size. If between sizes, always go larger.

[accordion-item title=”▸ Shoe fit scale”]
VJ have graded the fit on all shoes from 1 to 5 to help you find the perfect fitting shoe.
Wide
Grade 1 represents the most precise and narrow fit. Grade 5 has the widest fit.
The lower the number, the narrower the fit — essential for fast technical running where minimal foot movement matters. Higher numbers suit wider feet or those wanting extra comfort, and are often preferred on longer distances as feet tend to swell.
