Notable differences
- Format is identical (both Slim), but moisture isn't: Velo is Dry and Fre is Moist.
- Strength range: Fre now runs a flat 3-15mg on all six flavors — well past Velo's ceiling of 9mg (reached by seven of Velo's ten flavors). Both brands share the same 3mg floor on most flavors.
- Direct flavor overlap: both carry a Wintergreen, though Fre's now reaches 15mg while Velo's stops at 9mg. Velo's Watermelon Chill and Fre's Watermelon are close but not an exact name match, and Velo's Peppermint isn't the same as Fre's Mint.
- Flavor count and exclusives: Velo carries 10 flavors to Fre's 6. Velo adds Citrus Chill, Spearmint, Wild Berry, Cappuccino, Smooth, Dragon Fruit, and Tropical Heat, none of which Fre carries; Fre's Lush, Sweet, and Original have no Velo equivalent.
