I love the endorphin line and I always buy them. I was expecting the same or at least similar to the speed 4. These are much more stiff and the material is more race shoe material. That being said they do run a touch small, like a typical race shoe does. I bought these in my normal size and my toes are killing me after running in them. I would recommend half size up.
I like fit of this generation but they feel slightly heavier than the 4. I’ve done a few 10+ milers in the Speed5, and while I like them, my biggest complaint is it’s not as peppy feeling and springy as the 4. Still a solid shoe, however it may take some time to adjust.
I bought these, thought they would be like the 2’s But no where near close, I really wish they would bring back the rocker, that is what made me fall in love with them, now I have to find another shoe that has it, so disappointed!!
We appreciate your feedback. Thank you.
I found the 5 to have a slightly more roomy toe box. I loved the 3’s and struggled with the tightness of the 4’s even though I do not have a wide foot.
I feel like saucony ia back on track with these shoes. I really struggled with the 4s and these feel so much more like the 2s.
