FAQs

What type of running is the Endorphin Speed 5 best suited for?

It's highly versatile, ideal for speed days, race days, and long, moderate training sessions due to its responsive PWRRUN PB cushioning, winged nylon plate, and SPEEDROLL technology.

What is PWRRUN PB cushioning?

PWRRUN PB is Saucony's energy-efficient, superfoam cushioning that provides exceptional rebound and responsiveness, helping to reduce fatigue and deliver a lively feel with every step.

Does the Endorphin Speed 5 have a carbon plate?

No, it features a winged nylon plate. This plate provides torsional rigidity and forefoot flexibility for a stable and responsive ride, offering a different performance profile than a carbon plate.

How much does the Endorphin Speed 5 weigh?

The average weight is 8.4oz (238g), positioning it as a lightweight option suitable for performance running.

What is the heel-to-toe drop (offset) of this shoe?

The shoe has an 8mm offset, with a heel stack height of 36mm and a forefoot stack height of 28mm.

How should I clean my Endorphin Speed 5 shoes?

Clean the mesh upper with a soft brush or cloth and mild soap. Allow them to air dry naturally; do not machine wash or machine dry to prevent damage to materials.

Is this shoe suitable for daily training?

Yes, while designed for speed, its comfort, durability, and versatility make it an excellent choice for a wide range of daily training runs as well, especially when you want a responsive feel.

Is the Endorphin Speed 5 available for both men and women?

Yes, the Endorphin Speed 5 is available in specific variants and sizing tailored for both male and female runners.

Troubleshooting

Shoe feels too tight or restrictive

Ensure you have the correct size and width. Try adjusting your lacing technique, such as skipping an eyelet, to relieve pressure over the instep. If discomfort persists, consult a running shoe specialist for a fit assessment.

Loss of responsiveness or 'pop' over time

Running shoes have a finite lifespan, typically 300-500 miles, before the cushioning degrades. A significant decrease in responsiveness often indicates the PWRRUN PB foam is worn out, and the shoes may need replacement.

Slipping on wet surfaces

While the outsole is designed for durability, its grip can be affected by extremely wet, icy, or slick conditions. Adjust your stride and reduce pace when running in challenging weather. The Endorphin Speed 5 is primarily a road shoe.

Unusual wear pattern on the outsole

Monitor your outsole wear. Asymmetrical or rapid wear can indicate biomechanical issues or an outdated gait analysis. Consider consulting a running expert to assess your stride and ensure proper foot mechanics.

Odor build-up

Allow your shoes to air out completely after each run. Remove insoles occasionally to air them separately. You can use shoe deodorizers or sprinkle baking soda inside the shoes to absorb moisture and odors. Avoid storing damp shoes in enclosed spaces.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Sizing and Fit

The Saucony Endorphin Speed 5 is designed for adult runners, available in variants for both male and female athletes. To ensure optimal fit and performance, choose your standard running shoe size. The product features an 8mm offset (36mm heel / 28mm forefoot), which is a common drop suitable for a variety of running gaits. The new mesh upper provides a comfortable and secure fit.

Compatibility

This shoe is compatible with most standard running socks. It is primarily designed for road running due to its outsole pattern and cushioning system.

Product Care

To maximize the lifespan and maintain the performance of your Endorphin Speed 5 shoes, follow these care guidelines:

  1. Cleaning: Gently clean the mesh upper with a soft brush or cloth and a small amount of mild soap mixed with water. For tougher dirt, use a shoe cleaner specifically designed for athletic footwear. Avoid harsh chemicals.
  2. Drying: Allow shoes to air dry naturally. Do not machine wash or machine dry, as high heat can damage the foam, adhesives, and upper materials.
  3. Storage: Store your shoes in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight or extreme temperatures. Ensure they are completely dry before storing to prevent odor and mildew.
  4. Rotation: If you run frequently, consider rotating your Endorphin Speed 5 with other running shoes. This allows the cushioning to fully recover and can extend the overall lifespan of each pair.
