Full details

FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for marathons?

Yes, many runners find the Endorphin Speed 5's mix of cushioning and propulsion ideal for long-distance training and racing.

Is the nylon plate too stiff?

The nylon plate is designed to be more flexible than carbon, making it more comfortable for daily training while still providing a snappy feel.

What is the primary material used for the upper?

The shoes are constructed with lightweight, durable nylon, providing a balance of breathability and performance.

Can I put these in the washing machine?

It is not recommended. Machine washing can damage the foam cushioning and the structural integrity of the shoe's adhesives.

How do I determine the right size?

These trainers generally fit true to size. Ensure you have about a thumb's width of space between your longest toe and the front of the shoe.

Troubleshooting

Foot fatigue on long runs

Ensure your arch support needs match a neutral shoe or consider adding an aftermarket orthotic insole for extra structural support.

Difficulty keeping the laces tied

Use a double-knot or a runner's loop (lace lock) method to improve tension security during high-intensity training.

Material showing surface wear

Wipe down the nylon exterior regularly with a damp cloth to prevent grit and debris from abrading the upper fabric.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Exceptionally lightweight for faster training runs
  • High energy return from responsive foam midsole
  • Unique, artistic design inspired by Japanese teahouse aesthetics
  • Versatile performance suitable for both tempo runs and daily mileage

Cons

  • Neutral platform may not offer enough support for overpronators
  • Nylon plate performance requires adjustment period for some runners
  • Distinctive floral pattern may not suit all personal style preferences

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your shoes remain in peak condition, perform a standard lace-up check before your first run to ensure the tension is distributed evenly across the bridge of your foot. Since these are high-performance nylon trainers, avoid using high-heat laundry machines or tumble dryers, as this can degrade the foam integrity and glue bonds. If the shoes become muddy or dirty, clean them by hand using a soft-bristle brush, mild soap, and cold water. Always air-dry in a cool, shaded area away from direct sunlight to prevent material discoloration and brittleness.
