Product Information

Full details

The Saucony Endorphin Speed 5 is designed for female runners seeking speed and a smooth ride, ideal for track nights or chasing personal bests. Its key benefit is the combination of a new nylon plate and responsive PWRRUN PB cushioning for snappy transitions. A potential caveat is that while built for speed, its versatility might mean it's not the most specialized shoe for extreme long-distance comfort if that is your sole focus.

FAQs

What is the primary purpose of the Endorphin Speed 5?

The Endorphin Speed 5 is primarily designed for speed sessions, tempo runs, and race days, offering a fast, responsive, and smooth ride thanks to its nylon plate and PWRRUN PB cushioning.

Is this shoe suitable for beginners?

Yes, while it's a fast shoe, its SPEEDROLL technology and balanced cushioning make it suitable for beginner runners looking to improve their speed or wanting a more dynamic feel for their runs.

What is the difference between PWRRUN PB and other Saucony foams?

PWRRUN PB is Saucony's most responsive and lightweight foam, offering high energy return. It's designed to provide a springy feel, distinct from more traditional or firmer cushioning foams.

How does the nylon plate affect the ride?

The winged nylon plate provides torsional stiffness for a stable feel and enhances the responsiveness of the PWRRUN PB foam, contributing to a snappy and propulsive toe-off without being overly rigid.

Can I use these shoes for daily training?

Absolutely. While built for speed, the Endorphin Speed 5 is versatile and comfortable enough for daily training runs, especially if you appreciate a lighter, more energetic feel.

What is the weight of the shoe?

The shoe weighs approximately 8.4oz (238g) for a men's size, with women's sizes typically being slightly lighter.

What is the heel-to-toe drop?

The heel-to-toe drop is 8mm (36mm in the heel and 28mm in the forefoot).

Troubleshooting

Shoe feels too tight or causes discomfort.

Ensure you have the correct size. Try different lacing techniques to adjust the fit around the midfoot and ankle. If discomfort persists, consider trying a half-size up or a different model.

Reduced responsiveness or cushioning after many miles.

While the PWRRUN PB cushioning is durable, its responsiveness may naturally decrease over an extended period of use. Consider replacing the shoes after approximately 300-500 miles, depending on your gait and running surface.

Slipping during wet conditions.

The outsole provides good traction on dry surfaces. For significantly wet conditions, exercise caution, as increased rubber coverage doesn't guarantee grip on extremely slick surfaces. Ensure the outsole is clean of debris.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Offers a fast and responsive ride suitable for speed work and racing.
  • Combines cushioning and a plate for a snappy, propulsive feel.
  • Versatile enough for various training paces beyond just speed work.
  • Lightweight mesh upper ensures comfort and breathability.
  • Durable outsole provides reliable traction and longevity.

Cons

  • May not be the ideal choice for runners seeking maximal cushioning for very long, slow runs.
  • The plate design, while versatile, might feel less aggressive than carbon-plated shoes for some racers.
  • Specific fit may vary, requiring a proper try-on for optimal comfort.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: These shoes are ready to wear straight out of the box. No specific setup is required beyond ensuring they fit correctly.

Compatibility: Designed for neutral runners, these trainers are suitable for road and asphalt surfaces. They are ideal for speed training, race days, and general running.

Care:

  • Cleaning: After runs, brush off loose dirt. For deeper cleaning, use a damp cloth and mild soap if necessary. Avoid machine washing or drying, as this can damage the materials.
  • Drying: Allow shoes to air dry at room temperature. Do not place them near direct heat sources like radiators or in direct sunlight.
  • Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use.
