Customer Reviews Saucony Endorphin Shift

I have logged over 100 miles on my (first pair of) Shifts. I just ordered a second pair because I'll be in peak marathon training come November, and after running in these, I don't want to train in anything else. I was using Kinvaras for my daily trainer prior to the Endorphin line release, and nothing against Kinvaras (they're great), but the Shift is in a different league. They're solid with the perfect amount of cushion. The upper fits like a dream. It's seriously like driving a Lincoln Continental luxurious and comfortable, but some serious pep under the hood. The Shifts don't feel like 10.5 oz on your foot. I'd give this shoe more stars if I could. Saucony has gone to bat with the big boys and they're winning if you ask me. Please don't ever stop making this shoe!

Cmodos muy buena la pisada!!! Y amortiguacin!!! Seguros

I am an avid runner and have been running with Saucony running shoes for the past 3 years now. I originally started with the Ride ISO and then organically, upgraded to the Ride ISO 2.0, which I thought was a nice improvement from the original Ride ISO. I was a little bit skeptical to make the switch to the Ride 13 because of the fundamental changes Saucony did to the shoes; different upper, smaller midsole/outsole, which I thought would impact what made the Ride ISO 2.0 such a great shoe with perfect balance between plush cushioning and performance. I have to admit that the Triumph 18 is hands down my favorite Saucony running shoe. A little bit more cushioned than the Ride ISO 2.0 but also very receptive. I highly recommend it to anyone who is looking for a good daily trainer.

Great running shoe, soft, lightweight, no brake in time, great for a daily running shoe

These shoes are so comfortable, that I had to get two pairs. They are perfect daily trainers that can also go faster. I already set my personal best in them. SpeedRoll technology is what sets them apart from other brands, and the midsole foam is great. It helps keep up your cadence effortlessly. Did I say these shoes are perfect?

After a few runs I am loving these more and more! These truly are quite cushioned; are pretty comfortable; and somehow the Speedroll design works unobtrusively. I love these for their mild stability features, especially when I pair them with a set of footbeds to help my overpronation. I rotate these with the Hurricane 22 and can't believe how well the combo works for me. I love the White Mutant colors, although I struggle to keep the white portions looking new. I am very happy with these and look forward to more miles in them!

I wouldn't confuse this with a racing shoe, but the Shift is really comfortable and turnover is smooth and responsive. The shoe also provides great protection for those long training runs.

Love the features on this shoe. I feel like I'm floating

This is a great shoe. The cushioning is just right. The heel area has perfect all around lock fit. I have multiple shoes and after trying the 'Shift', I never went back to any other pairs. The white sole does get dusty but that's expected. Hope they can come out with an all black pair.

I have appreciated the quality of Saucony shoes for a long time but never have found one that fits all of my needs due to old injuries, a large body frame, and an accommodating toe box (I admit I'm finicky). The entire endorphin line is fantastic but, in my opinion, the Swift is the best (and cheapest) of all. A max cushion shoe with stability. You definitely can feel the rocker (in a good way) and the upper truly is customized. This shoe keeps your foot stable and provides the best lateral support of any max cushion shoe I have tried. It is incredibly comfortable and very light considering the amount of cushion. Not too soft and not too hard. You'll roll through you miles in comfort. Just a great shoe! IMO, the best Saucony has put out.

Amazing shoes! Rolls me faster on my slower longer days with less effort. I highly recommend!

Great comfort Excellent design.

This shoe looks big and bold, and it's all comfort.

My favorite shoe to date! Works great on every surface and at every pace.

I have ran in Saucony for nearly all my "running life"... Guide, Ride, Kinvara, and 1 Hurricane. I had recently tried the Brooks Launch 6 and I liked it. It became my "speed" shoe. Then the Shift came out. First run today was completely unreal. I didn't feel the effort of my pace at all. The cushion was amazing, best ever really. The speed roll tech is really awesome. I will wear these 99.9% of the time for sure.

I love the feel of these shoes! They feel so natural, and I am loving the support I get. My times have definitely been quicker with these shoes, even if I don't really feel like I run faster. I'll say my stride has definitely improved a bit, and so has my balance. These shoes look amazing enough, but they feel incredible!

Fits true, taking into account Sauconys have, for me, always needed to be sized up .5 Expensive, but worth it. Haven't had them long enough to see how long they last. Love both Endorphin models I have, the Pro and Shift.

Very comfortable easy day shoe. A bit heavy, but well worth it for how my legs feel after running in them. Great cushion. Love the low drop. My other shoes are the Kinvara 11s, and they just aren't enough cushion and support for every day. Mixing these in keeps me going with fresher legs for hard days.

For a brand new shoe, I'm very happy with it. Due to injury, I haven't run with it yet but very much looking forward to using it as a longer run shoe, given me max cushioning but a lightweight feel.

My experience with the Endorphin line has been incredible so far. I started off like many purchasing the Pro and I instantly fell in love. My next purchase was the Shift, which was actually a mistake when I had meant to get the Speed. After working with the Saucony team to correct the issue (before I had received the Shift), I was informed that I would have to send them back once received. Well that didn't exactly happen. I've never had a true "rotation" of running shoes before so I decided to keep them... and I'm sure glad I did. These fit perfectly into the rotation when my legs are barking at me from all the work I do in the Pro and Speed. Great job to the Saucony team on this incredible Endorphin line. Thank you, Nick K.

Great fit, look outrageously cool.

I have had my pair of Shifts since July 7 and have put 35 miles on them. I am in the middle of a marathon training cycle (hoping all the fall races are not cancelled) and running about 40 miles/week. The miles I have run in this shoe so far are slower long and recovery runs. The shoe is phenomenal. The cushion is soft, responsive and stable and provides a lot of energy return. I have run some 20 second strides in them and was surprised by the pop at faster paces. I look forward to running some tempo pieces in them soon. The SpeedRoll technology is real and helps me roll through my stride. The shoe fits true to size (I wear a 14 and my foot width is normal) and the upper fits well. Great shoe Saucony. I have also purchased the Ride and expect to receive my Endorphin speeds today.

A great, innovative shoe. Significantly reduces impact while providing a resilient, bouncy ride.

Shoe is a solid 10 out of 10 for long distance runs.

My first 20 miles on them have been great. More stack height than I'm used to, but it disappears when running. So much cushion but not to the point where you feel like your waisting effort. I can't say they make me feel like I'm running faster but my times were quicker without thinking about it. I can't wait to put more miles on them with longer runs.
