FAQs

Is the Endorphin Speed 5 suitable for beginners?

Yes, its neutral support and responsive cushioning make it accessible for many, though the plated feel may take a few runs to get used to.

Does the nylon plate provide the same energy return as carbon?

Nylon is slightly more flexible than carbon, offering a 'snappy' but slightly softer sensation that is often preferred for daily training versatility.

How do I ensure I have the right size?

Measure your feet at the end of the day when they are at their largest, and ensure you have at least 0.5cm to 1cm of space at the front.

Can I machine wash these trainers?

No, machine washing can damage the adhesive and the structural integrity of the nylon plate. Stick to hand cleaning with a damp cloth.

What does the 'Kissaten' edition refer to?

It is a stylistic edition inspired by traditional Japanese coffee and tea houses, featuring unique prints and color schemes.

Troubleshooting

Feeling discomfort in the arch area

Check your lacing tension; avoid overtightening over the midfoot to allow the plate to flex naturally with your foot.

Excessive wear on the outsole

Ensure you are landing with a neutral strike; if you notice uneven wear patterns, consider a gait analysis to confirm this shoe is the correct stability match.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Exceptionally lightweight design for faster turnover
  • Highly responsive cushioning reduces fatigue on long runs
  • Distinctive and artistic design aesthetics
  • Versatile performance suitable for both daily training and tempo sessions
  • Smooth transition from heel to toe

Cons

  • The specific aesthetic may not suit runners preferring minimalist looks
  • Requires adaptation if moving from a non-plated shoe
  • Limited to neutral pronation support profiles

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure optimal performance, ensure you have correctly sized your shoe to account for potential foot swelling during longer runs; a thumb-width of space in the toe box is standard.

Care Instructions:

  • Cleaning: Spot clean the nylon upper with a soft brush and mild soap. Avoid submersion.
  • Drying: Air dry away from direct heat sources like radiators, which can warp the midsole foam.
  • Rotation: To extend the life of the PWRRUN PB cushioning, rotate these with another pair of running shoes to allow the foam to fully decompress between sessions.
  • Storage: Keep in a cool, dry place out of direct sunlight to prevent material degradation of the decorative floral prints and upper fabric.
