Saucony
Mens Endorphin Speed 5

I bought these for my son (freshman in hs) for track. It's been less than a month and the sole is coming off. I need to call customer service during business hours to see if they will do anything to remedy the situation.

I have run in the Endorphin Speed 1 and Speed 2 in the past and these are my favorite of the lineup. What sets the speed 5 apart from previous models is the stability and the durability. They are some of the snappiest training shoes I've worn, which feels great for speedy days, but I've also loved taking them on long, slow runs as well. The plate does a good job of rolling me onto my toes. The lockdown on the upper is perfect. Great breathability. I have put 220 miles on them so far on the road, and I see minimal wear on the sole of the shoe, even with all the exposed foam. In previous models, the rubber partially separated from the foam after about 200 miles, but these are holding strong. Also with the previous models, as they accumulated mileage, the midsole became spongy and unstable, but these are maintaining bounce and structure. I have gotten no blisters on my feet, and there is plenty of room in the toe box. I am a 175 lb runner and these handle my weight just fine. Great job Saucony, please don't change this shoe too much.

Don't like the fit. Not as happy as I have been with other Saucony.

I am on my 4th or 5th pair of these shoes. Love them!

This shoe seems a bit narrow in the toes. I've worn saucony for years and have never needed a wide shoe. However, I recommend it for this model.

I have been running on and off for over a decade, but never took it that seriously, and never bothered to do any research into shoes. I would often run in regular trainers and not pay too much attention. Last summer, I decided to get more serious about running, in order to run faster and set some new PBs.

Eventually I stumbled on this shoe, and after doing some research decided I would give it a try. To my surprise, the moment I got these shoes its like a whole new level of running was unlocked for me. I set multiple PBs back to back to back. It was absolutely incredible. I never knew how big of a difference a shoe could make for speed.

I've been running in these shoes for over 6 months now, and put over 500kms in them and they are still going strong, no noticeable decline in speed or comfort. I might be able to get another 500kms out of them!

These shoes are a 5/5 for me. That being said in you decide to run a lot more you might want to keep these shoes for your Tempo/Threshold workouts and not use them as a daily trainer. They are fast (which I love), but aren't going to take care of your legs if you run a lot and use them for every workout.

Super happy with my purchase.

Like the weight and the construction of the Speed 5. It did take some time adjusting the shoe and experienced minor issues but nothing from stopping my run or training. Love the feel in the toe box.
