Saucony  Endorphin Trainer Road-Running Shoes - Women's

It takes me a lot to get me this excited about a new pair of sneakers, especially ones that have only been launched by a brand recently. This Saucony Endorphin Trainer is amazing! I wore mine on the treadmill (knowing that I could ship them back if I didn’t like them) and did a slow few miles. Originally I thought that there was too much room in the toe box and worried how sloshy my foot would feel- two miles later these have been by far my favorite shoes ever straight out of the box. They are responsive, structured and easy all at the same time. I felt like I was wearing the Endorphin Speed 3’s only with far more power. True to size and more grip than ever before. If you love Saucony then you must grab a pair of these and feel them for yourself!

I’ve owned two pairs of the endorphin pro and it’s my favorite shoe I’ve ever run in. Very fast, lightweight, and reactive. However, as a training shoe it’s not durable. In under 100 miles the upper has separated from the sole on the inside of the arch on both pairs. I purchased the endorphin trainer thinking that it would feel like the pro underfoot but have a more durable upper . Unfortunately the shoe is wide and clunky, kind of reminds me of a Hoka Clifton. I’ve also owned several pairs of the endorphin speed and the peregrine trail shoe, and they’ve all fit my foot similarly. This will just be an expensive dog walking shoe for me.

I have been running in saucony's for over two decades and I have never disliked a shoe before until I ran in these. The cushion of the shoe is intense and I thought this would be great for long runs however the actual shoebox is so wide I feel like I'm going to roll an ankle. No matter how I tie them my feet slide around inside of them and I have pain in my knees and ankles afterwards. It always takes a while to adjust to new shoes but I have ran in these a handful of times and I just cannot run in them without pain and fear of injury. I have most of the endorphin line and these are just very different than any of the other shoes. I would compare them more to hokas and I am not a fan of those! If you have narrow feet these are definitely not the shoe for you.

I don’t normally write reviews but after seeing so many negative reviews for this shoe I had to give my experience! I’m obsessed with this shoe!! I’ve used the Saucony Triumphs for years, but recent models (20-22) gave me random arch pain and have been mainly running in older triumphs models and Brooks since. I needed new shoes and ended up trying out these shoes in store and instantly fell in love. The energy return from the plate is amazing, but the cushioning gives me enough support for long runs too. The first time I did a speed workout in them I felt like I just kept accelerating and accelerating. These have been my current go to for marathon training. Can’t wait to wear these on race day!

This is my absolute favorite trainer to date! This shoe is GOLD! Not only are they so incredibly comfortable, but boy are they fast! Please don’t ever change these, they are perfection!

I love this shoe. Plenty of room in the toe box. The cushion feels just right and I can log double digits run without pain. I’m doing most of my Chicago marathon miles on these!

I LOVE THESE SHOES!! i’ve had them for a couple of months now, and they are so reliable! i love the cushion they supply, and they’re so comfortable!

Just finished a half marathon, sooooo glad I got these

I purchased these, hoping for the advantages of an endorphin shoe while also providing cushion that doesn’t weigh me down like the Triumph. I had complicated foot surgery and could no longer wear the endorphin speed shoes. This is the only shoe I can currently wear that my foot has no pain….none at all! I’m so happy to be pain-free and getting back to running finally. I just wish I had bought a pair or two more prior to the price increase!
