FAQs

What is the main benefit of the nylon plate?

The winged nylon plate provides torsional rigidity for a stable ride while maintaining flexibility in the forefoot, contributing to snappy transitions and overall responsiveness.

Who is the Endorphin Speed 5 best suited for?

It is best suited for adult male runners looking for a fast, responsive shoe for speed days, race days, and tempo training. It's ideal for neutral runners.

How does the SPEEDROLL technology work?

SPEEDROLL technology is an advanced geometry that creates a propulsive feel, rolling you forward effortlessly and ensuring a fast, natural stride at any pace.

What is the drop of the Endorphin Speed 5?

The shoe has a heel-to-toe offset of 8mm (36mm in the heel and 28mm in the forefoot).

Is this shoe good for long-distance running?

Yes, while designed for speed, the PWRRUN PB cushioning and efficient geometry make it capable and comfortable for long, moderate training sessions and marathon distances.

How do I clean these trainers?

Clean them using a soft brush for dry dirt and a damp cloth with mild soap and water for tougher stains. Avoid machine washing or harsh detergents.

What is the weight of the shoe?

The Saucony Endorphin Speed 5 weighs 8.4oz (238g).

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too stiff on first wear

The nylon plate and SPEEDROLL technology might require a short break-in period. Try wearing them for shorter runs or around the house initially to allow them to adapt to your foot.

Reduced responsiveness over time

Ensure the shoes are clean and free from debris that might impede the cushioning or plate function. Check for excessive wear on the outsole, which could affect performance.

Discomfort in the forefoot

Verify that the lacing is appropriate. Ensure the shoe's flexibility is not being restricted. If the issue persists, consider if the shoe's geometry suits your natural stride.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: The Endorphin Speed 5 is ready to wear straight out of the box; no specific setup is required beyond lacing them to your preferred tightness.

Compatibility: These trainers are designed for neutral runners and perform best on asphalt surfaces. They are compatible with most standard running socks.

Care: To maintain the shoe's performance and longevity:

  1. Cleaning: Gently brush off loose dirt with a soft brush. Use a damp cloth with mild soap and water for more stubborn dirt. Avoid machine washing or submerging the shoes in water.
  2. Drying: Allow shoes 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 in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Ensure they are not compressed or stored under heavy objects.
