Endorphin Speed 5 Running Trainers

Bought these shoes in preparation to running a Half Marathon. I had been switching from New Balance 1080 (too heavy) and Asics (not much support). From the moment I tried these Endorphin Speed 5 on, I felt the comfort and support. I have now used them to run my long runs (7, 8 , 9 and 10 miles) and honestly they have not disappointed, I feel the comfort and support throughout the runs and love the spacious width on the toes. Just like all of you out there I was SKEPTICAL! and I know now every shoe is for everyone, but I definitely recommend these. By the way! these will be the ones I will use to run the half marathon.

The Saucony products following the Kinvara 15s all smell like PCBs and VOCs. The smell is intense like cheap plastic shower curtains. The smell penetrates the socks too. I'd like to write management a letter to provide feedback, however, I can only find this product-specific feedback form.

Feel less aggressive than the speed 4's, but absolutely love them. Good balance of support and responsiveness. Will be buying another pair when mileage hits. Saucony needs to keep producing bright hot pink shoes for guys. Look fast be fast

PR'd my half time without trying. This shoe is like riding an ebike.

I wanted to love these shoes they’re light as advertised and feel fast underfoot… but for me they just didn’t deliver where it counts. First off, the weight is insane. You really feel like you’re flying, and they make easy miles feel effortless. But here’s the kicker the cushioning is way underwhelming. I only had them about a month and ended up dealing with plantar fasciitis symptoms that I never had before. That tells me the stack & rebound just weren’t protecting my feet on my typical runs. For a daily trainer that’s supposed to handle volume, that’s a no-go for me. They’re great for short, fast efforts, but honestly, I expected more comfort and durability for the price. Light ≠ supportive, and these leaned too far on light for my feet. If you want fast and light for short workouts, they’re decent. But if you’re looking for a shoe you can run lots of miles comfortably, steer toward something with better cushioning, these just weren’t it for me.

I am very pleased with Saucony Endorphin speed 5. I owned a pair of older model. I enjoy the updated version. I have a wide foot and the fit great! I enjoy the lightweight foam. I have been purchasing Saucony’s since the 80’s. I enjoy the brand
