FAQs

What is the main difference between Endorphin Speed 5 and other models?

The Endorphin Speed 5 features a newly designed nylon plate combined with PWRRUN PB cushioning for a fast, responsive ride with smooth transitions. It's optimized for speed days and racing while maintaining everyday comfort.

Is this shoe suitable for marathon racing?

Yes, for neutral runners who prefer a nylon-plated shoe, the Endorphin Speed 5 is excellent for marathon racing due to its lightweight, responsive cushioning and propulsive feel.

How does the SPEEDROLL technology work?

SPEEDROLL is an engineered geometry that creates a propulsive sensation, working with the shoe's rocker shape to propel you forward more easily, reducing braking forces and encouraging a faster stride.

Can I use these shoes for daily training?

Absolutely. The PWRRUN PB cushioning provides comfort and protection for daily runs, while the lightweight design and responsive plate make them ideal for faster workouts and even recovery runs when you want a lighter feel.

What kind of support does the Endorphin Speed 5 offer?

The Endorphin Speed 5 offers neutral support. It is designed for runners with a neutral gait who do not require additional stability features to correct overpronation.

How do I clean my Endorphin Speed 5 trainers?

Gently brush off dirt, then use a mild soap and cold water with a soft brush or cloth. Always air dry them away from direct heat.

What is the weight of the Endorphin Speed 5?

The Endorphin Speed 5 weighs approximately 7.2oz (204g) per shoe in a women's size.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight or uncomfortable

Ensure you have the correct size and width. Try lacing them differently to adjust pressure points. The engineered mesh will adapt slightly over time, but a fundamentally poor fit may require a different size.

Reduced cushioning or responsiveness over time

The PWRRUN PB foam may naturally compress after significant mileage. Ensure the shoes are kept clean and dry, and avoid prolonged exposure to extreme temperatures, which can degrade cushioning faster.

Outsole appears to be wearing quickly

While the outsole is optimized for durability, aggressive running mechanics or running on abrasive surfaces can accelerate wear. Ensure you are using the shoes for their intended purpose on roads or tracks.

Nylon plate feels too stiff or not propulsive

This can be subjective and dependent on individual running form and expectations. Ensure the shoe has sufficient mileage for the plate to flex naturally with your stride. If still uncomfortable, consider a shoe with a different plate material or flex profile.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Delivers a fast and propulsive running experience.
  • Offers a good balance of cushioning and responsiveness.
  • Lightweight and breathable upper enhances comfort.
  • Durable outsole design for extended use.
  • Smooth transitions due to SPEEDROLL technology and gait groove.

Cons

  • Neutral support may not suit runners needing pronation control.
  • May feel too firm for runners preferring maximum plush cushioning.
  • Nylon plate might be less aggressive than carbon plates for some racers.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: The Endorphin Speed 5 requires no specific setup. Simply ensure they fit correctly before your first run. For optimal performance, it's recommended to use them for their intended purpose – speed work, tempo runs, and races.

Compatibility: These trainers are designed for road running and track use. They are compatible with most running socks. While not designed for technical trails, they can handle light gravel paths.

Care: To maintain the shoes:

  1. Cleaning: After runs, gently brush off loose dirt and mud. For deeper cleaning, use a mild soap and cold water with a soft brush or cloth. Avoid machine washing or harsh detergents, as this can damage the materials.
  2. Drying: Always air dry the shoes. Stuff them with newspaper or a towel to help absorb moisture and maintain their shape. Keep them away from direct heat sources like radiators or direct sunlight, which can degrade the foam and adhesives.
  3. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use. Avoid storing them in plastic bags or airtight containers for extended periods, as this can trap moisture.
