Product Information

Full details

These shoes feature a highly responsive ride intended to optimize energy return with every stride, though users should be aware that the aggressive geometry may require a brief adaptation period for those accustomed to traditional, flatter footwear.

FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for a marathon?

Yes, the Endorphin Speed 5 is highly capable of handling marathon distances due to its blend of cushioning and energy return.

Can I use these for gym workouts?

While they are designed for running, their stable base allows for light gym work, though they are optimized for forward motion rather than side-to-side agility.

How do I know if the UK 11.5 size is right for me?

We recommend measuring your foot at the end of the day when it is slightly swollen and ensuring there is about a thumb's width of space between your longest toe and the front of the shoe.

Does the black colorway scuff easily?

The black finish is quite durable, but like any shoe, it can show dust and debris; a damp cloth is usually sufficient to restore the clean look.

Is this shoe good for flat feet?

The shoe provides moderate support, but runners with specific orthotic needs should consult a professional or use custom insoles within the shoe.

Troubleshooting

Feeling instability in the arch during long runs

Ensure your laces are tightened correctly to lock the midfoot in place, or consider replacing the factory insole with one that provides your preferred level of arch support.

Excessive wear on the outsole

Check your running gait to see if you are experiencing abnormal pronation or heel striking; rotating your shoes with another pair can also help extend the life of the outsole rubber.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the longevity of your Saucony Endorphin Speed 5 trainers, follow these maintenance guidelines:

  1. Fit Check: Ensure the size is correct for your foot shape; the UK 11.5 provides a standard performance fit.
  2. Break-in: Take a few shorter, easy runs in the shoes before using them for high-intensity speed sessions.
  3. Cleaning: Remove surface dirt with a soft-bristled brush after muddy runs. Avoid using a washing machine or dryer, as heat can damage the foam and adhesive materials.
  4. Drying: If the shoes get wet, remove the insoles and stuff them with newspaper, allowing them to air dry away from direct heat sources like radiators or fireplaces.
