FAQs
What type of running is the Saucony Endorphin Speed 5 best for?
The Endorphin Speed 5 is highly versatile and ideal for speed training, competitions, and long-distance runs, especially on asphalt surfaces.
What is PWRRUN PB foam?
PWRRUN PB is Saucony's premium lightweight foam that provides exceptional cushioning, high energy return, and a bouncy feel underfoot, making every stride feel more energetic.
How does SPEEDROLL Technology work?
SPEEDROLL Technology is an always-forward geometry that positions the foot for an energetic, lively, and rolling sensation, promoting a smooth and efficient transition from landing to toe-off.
Does this shoe have a carbon plate?
No, the Endorphin Speed 5 features a winged nylon plate. This plate offers a blend of stability and flexibility, providing a natural and less aggressive feel compared to a carbon plate, making it suitable for broader training applications.
What is the drop of the Endorphin Speed 5?
The Saucony Endorphin Speed 5 has an 8mm heel-to-toe drop, which is a common and versatile drop for many runners.
How should I clean my Saucony Endorphin Speed 5 shoes?
Always refer to the care label inside your shoes for specific instructions. Generally, hand wash with mild soap and cold water, gently scrubbing with a soft brush, and then air dry away from direct heat or sunlight.
Is this shoe suitable for runners with pronation issues?
The Endorphin Speed 5 is designed as a neutral shoe. While it offers stability, runners with significant pronation issues may benefit from shoes specifically designed with stability features.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel less responsive or bouncy than new.
Foam cushioning, especially performance foams like PWRRUN PB, naturally compresses over time and mileage. If your shoes have significant mileage (typically 300-500 miles), it may be time to consider a replacement. For newer shoes, ensure they are thoroughly dry after runs.
Discomfort or rubbing during runs.
Check your lacing technique to ensure it's not too tight or too loose. Experiment with different lacing patterns. Also, ensure you are wearing appropriate running socks that wick moisture and provide cushioning. Verify that the shoe size is correct, considering slight foot swelling during runs.
Lack of grip on certain surfaces (e.g., damp roads).
While XT-900 outsoles provide excellent traction on asphalt, extremely wet or slick surfaces can still reduce grip. Adjust your stride, reduce pace, and be cautious on such conditions. The shoe is optimized for asphalt, so performance may vary on other terrains.

Care
To ensure the longevity and performance of your Saucony Endorphin Speed 5 shoes:
- Refer to Care Label: The most accurate and specific care instructions are found on the shoe's internal care label. Always consult this first.
- Cleaning: For general cleaning, gently remove loose dirt with a soft brush (e.g., old toothbrush). Hand wash using mild soap and cold water. Avoid harsh detergents or hot water, as these can damage materials.
- Drying: Allow shoes to air dry naturally at room temperature. Avoid direct sunlight or using artificial heat sources like radiators or tumble dryers, as this can cause materials to shrink or warp.
- Storage: Store your shoes in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use.
