Product Information

Full details

The Saucony Endorphin Speed 5 is designed for female adult runners seeking speed and a smooth, responsive ride for track nights or personal record attempts. Its key benefit is the combination of a new nylon plate and PWRRUN PB cushioning for snappy transitions, offering reliable speed. A potential caveat for some users might be its neutral ride, which is ideal for efficient biomechanics but may not offer additional support for overpronators. This shoe features a lightweight mesh upper, SPEEDROLL technology for effortless forward motion, and enhanced durability in high-wear areas.

FAQs

What type of runner is the Endorphin Speed 5 best suited for?

The Endorphin Speed 5 is ideal for neutral runners who want a fast and smooth shoe for speed days, race days, tempo runs, and even moderate daily training. It's particularly good for those looking for a responsive feel and an effortless forward motion.

How does the nylon plate differ from a carbon plate?

A nylon plate is generally more flexible and forgiving than a carbon plate, offering a good balance of propulsion and comfort. It provides snappy transitions without being overly stiff, making it suitable for a wider range of daily training and speed work.

What is the weight of the Endorphin Speed 5?

The Saucony Endorphin Speed 5 weighs approximately 204g (8.4oz) for a women's size, contributing to its lightweight feel for speedy efforts.

What is the heel-to-toe drop?

The heel-to-toe drop for the Endorphin Speed 5 is 8mm (36mm in the heel and 28mm in the forefoot), providing a balanced feel for most runners.

Are these shoes good for long runs?

Yes, while built for speed, the balanced PWRRUN PB cushioning and comfortable upper make the Endorphin Speed 5 also effective for longer, moderate-paced training runs.

What does 'SPEEDROLL Technology' do?

SPEEDROLL Technology is an advanced geometry that propels you forward, creating an effortless and energetic ride that encourages a faster cadence.

Is this shoe suitable for marathon running?

Many runners find the Endorphin Speed 5 to be an excellent choice for marathon racing and training due to its combination of speed, cushioning, and efficiency. It provides a propulsive feel that can help conserve energy over longer distances.

Does the shoe contain recycled materials?

Yes, the Endorphin Speed 5 is a vegan model and contains recycled materials, aligning with sustainability efforts.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight or loose

Adjust the lacing system to achieve a secure yet comfortable fit. Ensure you have selected the correct UK size. Consider thicker or thinner socks based on your preference.

Reduced responsiveness over time

The PWRRUN PB cushioning and nylon plate are designed for durability. However, like all shoes, their performance may decrease after extensive mileage. Ensure the shoes are clean, as debris can affect the feel.

Squeaking noise during runs

This can sometimes occur due to moisture trapped within the shoe or between components. Ensure the shoes are dry. If the noise persists, it might be a minor manufacturing anomaly and usually does not affect performance.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Provides a fast and smooth running experience.
  • The nylon plate and PWRRUN PB cushioning offer excellent energy return.
  • SPEEDROLL technology contributes to an effortless forward momentum.
  • Durable construction with increased rubber in high-wear areas.
  • Lightweight and comfortable mesh upper for extended wear.

Cons

  • Neutral ride may not suit runners needing pronation support.

  • Nylon plate might be less aggressive than carbon plates for elite racers.
  • Specific sizing might require careful attention for optimal fit.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: The Endorphin Speed 5 requires no specific setup; simply ensure the fit is correct for your foot. It is ready to wear out of the box.

Compatibility: These trainers are designed for road running. While they can handle light, well-maintained trails, their primary compatibility is with paved surfaces and tracks.

Care Instructions:

  1. Cleaning: After runs, use a soft brush or damp cloth to remove dirt and debris from the upper and outsole. Avoid harsh detergents or soaking the shoes.
  2. Drying: If the shoes become wet, allow them to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not place them near direct heat sources like radiators or in a tumble dryer, as this can damage the materials.
  3. Storage: Store the shoes in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight when not in use. It's recommended to loosen the laces slightly to allow air circulation.
  4. Rotation: For optimal longevity and performance, consider rotating your Endorphin Speed 5 with other running shoes.
