Customer Reviews Saucony Endorphin Pro 3

Excellent shoe with great response time. My only complaint is that the insole does not come out easily. It is glued down but will come out. I have spoken with a local running shop in town and the owner has told me that he has very carefully removed the insole without damaging the inside of the shoe.

Unsurprisingly, compared with Pro 2, the Endorphin Pro 3 offers a higher level of ride comfort during a long-distance run. It's softer and more responsive, and the Carbon plate is more reactive during the gait cycle. However, the tongue design is a failure. The tongue doesn't grip the foot well, and tends to slide forward, which causes the shoelace rubbing the foot to bleeding. The tongue should be longer. The tongue length falls short. Highly recommend to use the tongue of Pro 2. Pro 2's tongue is far more comfortable.

They are very durable and give a good feel on the 4 foot More firm than the Nike's I've ran in but a excellent experience

Nice shoe, definitely an improvement over the endorphin pro 2. Not the fastest shoe I've worn but great for long runs

I've ran a couple 5ks in these and im looking forward to running my next one in them

I bought these shoes for some upcoming half marathons. I really enjoy my ASICS Novablast 3s as daily trainers and wanted a similar feeling shoe for race day. I was not disappointed. The foam is soft yet springy. It feels like I'm running downhill even though I spend the majority of my time running on a flat road. The upper is also light yet supportive. I feel the upper is pretty true to size although the toe box is a little tight.

While the quality of these running shies is high; performs r good; great spring - I never had to bend down and tie the laces more often than with the saucony brand. Previous Endorphjn had laces were 4 inches too long as virtually no one uses the two upper holes.

Love this shoe love the cushion but quick bounce back

Love the cushion and comfort overall. It is a bit narrow for me but I thought it might be. I haven't had any Saucony in years so I wasn't sure. I do love them and would recommend.

The good: Springy stride, comfortable ride, and a nice design. I work in these shoes and use them as a race shoe. The bad: Shoe tongue bleeds color onto socks. Heel cushion is taller than ankle socks causing blisters. I had to get quarter socks with band-aids on my achilles for relief after my first half-marathon in these.

I've put about 50 miles on these in a month, longest run so far has been 16 miles. Mainly for my half marathon race pace long runs. Ran the NYC half in these over the Alphafly v1, had a 30 second personal record. My pinky toe doesn't love the toe box, fits true to size for my US size 9. I don't know if I'd take theses to the marathon distance. If I didn't get these on sale I wouldn't feel comfortable training in them. Not to say they aren't worth the tag price! Just like keeping my training shoes below a couple hundred.

A little tight in the toe box for my neuroma but otherwise great.

I am not a professional athlete. It has no support, so really a race day shoe and for athletes, it does help with improving timing but not having support has a down side of hurting yourself. I would not buy these again. I do use them and it's amazing when I run in them but I have to make sure it's a known route; I wont use it on unknown route as I would definitely get hurt.

I have a pair of the Saucony endorphin speed 3 and decided to get the pro 3 as a possible race day shoe for my upcoming half. Pros - After running a short 5 miler, I can say these live up to my expectations. I own pairs like the Alphafly V2, vaporfly next 2, Adios pro 3, Strung X and Metaspeed sky v1, but I still think these provide a better fit, gait cycle and foot form for my body type (5'10" 195lbs). The cushioning is adequate though I found it a little more dense than the Speed 3. Also, if the new Elite is said to be firmer than the pro3, it will not be my race day pick. Cons - I only wish Saucony made shoes for commoners (non elites) with slightly more accommodating toe box and wider underlying midsole. I'm normally a 11 in rest of the brands, but had to get a 11.5 on these. Overall, I love the shoe!

amazing shoe I feel like I am flying with it but unfortunately even though I have always been a 9 with every Saucony shoe I have purchase including the pro1 in here it seems like it runs half a size too small and I can't run with this anymore.

great pair of shoe but not wide enough. I wished you had that option and somewhat disappointed it wasn't offered.

I like the original Endorphin Speed best thus far. For my feet, they were the absolute best shoes. Speed 2's were too narrow for me. As far as the Speed 3, they are too long and the width is good but the extra foam on the sides and back just make my feet look like monster feet in my opinion. I've had people comment on that fact as well.

Realty great shoe. I have a very wide foot and wide footed racing shoes are hard to come by. After doing some homework the endorphin Pro 3 was rated high in this years best carbon-plated shoes for wide feet, so decided to take plunge. Shoes fit snug, but I am still in working them in phase (30-40km logged).

Vast improvement over Pro 2! Now it's a super shoe. But... I have wide feet, even a half size up is still painfully narrow. I've unlaced the bottom two eyes and it's STILL too tight... Either have a wide size, or widen the toes back out please.

Great bounce and stability in wide size as well, great for races

Extremely plush ride. You really sink into it.. Very comfortable right out of the box. Light weight despite all the cushioning. Felt a bit squishy. Tongue slid around a bit as well Probably gets better the more you use it.

Rubs your Achilles pretty badly but can be mitigated with bandages. Otherwise amazing shoe. Very fast.

Smooth, cushioned ride. When you hit the perfect stride, these shoes keep you at a great pace.

I never liked the Endorphin Pros; they are stiff and boring, and always felt pain after the run until I met the Pro3. I got it last week, and I wore it on all of my six runs. It's amazing. It's comfortable, lightweight, incredibly energetic, and smooth-rolling. It's even nice as a recovery shoe; if Saucony makes a black one with a black midsole, I will buy it and wear it on the weekends. Thank you for the upgrade Saucony; it's worth it.

Great improvement over the first gen Pro. Bounce is great, it's like running on cloud. Stability is also better than Speed v1 which I really liked. Only complaint is some issues with my heels. I've run only 30 mins and already have blisters on both ankles (which I don't have with any of my other shoes). The heel collar is pretty high and it rubs heavily when running. Other people have reported the same issue. That's the only reason -so far- for not giving these shoes a perfect score.
