I love these sneakers! I have 5 pairs of them in all different colors! I’ve ran personal best in just about every race I’ve done from 5ks, to 10ks, 10 milers and half marathons. These are great shoes! Excited to see what the 3s are going to be like!
I’ve had maybe 12-15 pairs of Endo Speeds. Best training shoe hands down. Stands it’s ground as a race shoe as well. Excellent energy return, plenty of cushion for long runs, rocker promotes quicker turnover. You will be surprised at your pace for a given level of effort. Good breathability, though your socks will get wet if you run in the rain. Very durable sole and upper - zero issues with durability - and I find the midsole provides good “pop” and cushion for 325-350 miles (for reference, 155 lb runner). Very excited about the upcoming Speed 3!
I really like running in these shoes. In fact, purely while running these are the best I've ever owned. However, they are not holding up well. I have now owned two pairs. I got the first in early July and put about 500 miles on by mid October. The collar started to fray even though there is plenty of life in the sole. I can over look that, but my second pair is already starting to come apart on the tongue after just a few weeks. These are expensive shoes. They really are great to run in, but I am a little peeved at how quickly they are starting to wear out. I am happy to share pictures.
This is a follow up to my previous review. I’ve logged over 100 miles and I can say these are the best running shoes I’ve ever owned. Incredibly comfortable, durable, and stylish. I recently completed the mellow trail half marathon in Austin and these shoes performed incredibly well on the trails. No issues with traction and the sole provided enough comfort to cushion the drops. I will certainly continue to purchase this shoe. Shoes were filthy after the race so I threw them in the washing machine.
Let me start by saying I LOVE THESE SHOES! Sooo with that being said I bought my first pair back in May then I bought 2 more pairs in June. The first pair are my favorite because they are the same colors as my beloved run club logo. Unfortunately, I was running a 13.2 mile workout and the heel on my left shoe became unglued somehow. I only logged about 100 miles on them since I first purchased them. It was a sad moment for me.
Fit is as expected. Nice upper, comfy toe box, heel is a bit narrow but not bad. Overall feels nimble and light. Completed a marathon in these and PR'd, not saying it was the shoes, but...
I have about 215 miles of road and dirt trail miles on these shoes and the outsole has worn off of my left heel, so they need to be retired soon. Other running shoes that I have used on the same routes have lasted closer 275-350 miles before showing comparable wear, so I’m disappointed with the quality of these shoes (my first pair of Saucony shoes). I really like the weight (very light), brightness, reflective spots on the backs, and the springiness of the mid-sole. However, I am not likely to buy another pair of Saucony for now due to my disappointment about the outsole.
I bought this shoe and ran roughly 60 miles on it before the styrofoam midsole ripped open. I am very disappointed in the quality of the shoe.
I’ll start off by saying that these running shoes are very good for what they are. I feel faster when I run in them, and my shin splints went away almost instantly once I switched over. However, the insole thing that came in my left shoe keeps getting pushed back into the heel. It rides up the back like it wants to come out. I’m sure that it could just be the way that I run, but I didn’t have this problem with my adidas ultraboosts.
The Endorphin Speed 2's have become my favorite all around shoe for all my runs. Fast, responsive, just enough cushion and stable. I get 800km in every pair I use and could probably go more. Outsole holds up great and no tears in the upper. Speaking of upper it's comfortable light and the tongue has just enough protection from the laces. Great shoe! Can't recommend enough.
