FAQs

What is the main benefit of the Endorphin Speed 5 Kissaten?

The main benefit is its combination of a redesigned nylon plate and PWRRUN PB cushioning, which delivers fast, smooth miles with a propulsive feel, optimized for speed.

Who is this shoe designed for?

This shoe is designed for adult female runners who want a fast, responsive shoe for tempo runs, interval training, and racing. It also appeals to collectors due to its unique Kissaten edition design.

How does the Kissaten edition differ from the standard Endorphin Speed 5?

Is this shoe suitable for daily training or recovery runs?

While it can be used for some daily training, its primary strength lies in faster paces. For dedicated recovery runs, a shoe with more plush cushioning might be preferred.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight

Loosen the laces and re-tie them, ensuring they are snug but not overly tight. If the issue persists, consider if the size is appropriate or if the lacing strategy needs adjustment.

Reduced responsiveness over time

Ensure the shoes are clean and free from debris that might impede the plate or cushioning. Excessive wear may naturally reduce responsiveness; consider replacement if significant mileage has been accumulated.

Discomfort during runs

Verify the shoe size and fit. Ensure you are using appropriate running socks. Break in the shoes gradually with shorter runs before attempting longer distances or intense workouts.
