Customer Reviews Saucony Endorphin Speed 2

Excellent shoe was quite surprised how lite it was.

Initially, some of the stitching on the tongue was not sewn correctly. Saucony customer service was awesome. The shoe has held up well after running in different terrain. This is my training shoe for everything up to a 1/2 marathon. Excellent shoe that will give you many many miles.

I like these shoes. I've been in Saucony for most of my adult running time, and there's always been a model that I can depend on. Until they discontinued it. And then I'd have to go searching for a fill-in while waiting for the next in line. These were part of a fill-in session. I got a pair of Ride 14s, underwhelming but fine workhorse shoe, if a little flat a little soon. Then there was a decent deal on these shoes, putting a plated trainer at about the same price as my old Liberty shoes on slight sale. So I jumped, figuring it couldn't be that bad. These shoes are lovely. I run my long runs in them and these days that means marathon-pace intervals at the end of 20+ km. The Endorphin Speeds respond beautiful to effort, gliding forward, and definitely taking the ouch out of all of the kilometres before the final push ones. The reflective overlay on the instep of the right shoe has already started peeling, but it's the only sign of wear other than the sole. The sole is thick enough to take many miles. The shoe feels true to size though a little narrow, and I am still in my usual 9.5. (My Endorphin Pro 1s are size 10.) The shoe feels narrow when combined with the high stack height, so is not something I would wear for a course with a lot of turns or sharp turns - too ankle-risky. Easy to topple. I bought my daughter Freedoms because they're lower, and she has a tendency to roll her ankles spectacularly. I have only about 100k or less on the Endorphin Speed 2, but it's a good shoe that I would buy again. I would likely not buy the same Ride 14s again. Not enough shoe for the cash. And why are shoes so expensive now anyway? You do realize that a lot of people replace them in a matter of months?

Very comfortable, but stick to hard track almost to soft for single track trail shoes

Nice , bouncy and light shoe. A little light on stability but a great overall running sneak.

Really Good Shoe, good responsiveness, great price. They last alot of kilometers! (2000+)

Great runner. I wish they were a bit more stable. Not sure if plate helps with 78 kg weight.

This is my second purchase in the Endorphin series. The Pro was first. I have only wore this model twice. ( I tend to squirrel running shoes under my bed for next years wear) Very comfortable and fast shoe. I'm a serious runner and looked at the endorphin series for performance and cushioning with a price point that wasn't too outrageous. So far so good. Saucony shoes has been my go to for years and seldom disappoint.

Nice and lightweight with a pronounced forward roll, I noticed right away that these shoes had a way of propelling me forward. The laces stay put and the cushioning is good. Only complaint is that the toebox is a bit wide, and my toes tend to slide forward to the front unless I'm wearing thick socks.

Been running on these for couple weeks. Love the cushioning and incredibly light. I do wish the had a bit more stability as with the added cushioning the are a bit "wobbly". Other than that, great shoe.

The shoe is amazing and fits me well. I spent a week running with my team and tested it thoroughly. I use currently 3 pairs which I rotate and leave to dry for freshness. My only issue is with the goofy Saucony color scheme available. It feels like the brand hired a Barbie fashionista to select them.

Shoes fit like a glove. There is nothing that's "too much" or "too little" about its features (feature, weight, stiffness, responsiveness). Great for LSD, uptempo's, marathon pace.

It is a versatile shoe that can go fast and can be used for speed/tempo runs and also versatile for long runs. It can be unstable at times.

Shoe is great and supportive. Only issue is that the decal logo on one of the shoes is peeling off after my first run.

Love the comfort , the ride and the fit However perhaps partly because the weather is currently very hot, Im getting hotspots in the forefoot after about 7 miles or so. Is there anything you can do to the sock liner to reduce or prevent this?

fast comfortable easy to run and breathable so you dont get hot

Like running on a cloud with a wind behind my back

Awesome running shoes. This is my second pair. The toe box is a little too narrow for me. It takes some time to get them wide enough.

Great shoe for speed workouts. I like the energy return i get from every step u take.

Perfect shoe for speed work. My only complaint is that the forefoot is drenched with sweat after a few miles. Feels like I'm running on a sponge. Never had this issue with other Saucony's (ie. Guide 15, Endorphin Shift, or old Saucony's)

Great shoe - Love the cushioning and the responsiveness - Just a little narrow compared to the first generation Endorphins

Great everyday shoe. Nice and light with good cushioning.

My feet are slightly wide so I'd appreciate a slightly wider toebox, but overall I'm getting used to these and they feel pretty good so far.

Great fit, lightweight, great return. The quality is fantastic and I expect they will hold up well for several hundred miles. At first, the soles were very loud on the pavement, and it took a minute to get used to turning sharply in them because the ankle support is not as stiff, but they encourage speed for sure. I now have 2 pairs to alternate between!

I've used mizuno wave riders for years but their sole is too stiff lately so tried these. Just 20 or so runs in at this point. Pros: good cushion, fast shoe. Cons - heal strike is low and with Achilles issues it seems to exacerbate those. Heal pad is narrow - low stability. I wouldn't want to try trail running in them.
