Customer Reviews Saucony Endorphin Pro 2

Really nice shoe but I seem to like the speed 2 better but that is just after a few runs in each. The Endorphin series is the best I ever bought. Use to really like Addias Super Nova but they went downhill over the years.

Awesome speed. Poor stability. I am curious how long they'll last.

Great running shoe. Stable with lots of cushioning. Prefer the bootof the Triumph more

Very good training shoe for long runs. Could also be used in shorter races but there are better options available. They're also a little louder than other shoes I've worn for some reason. Overall a solid shoe and worth the price.

Great shoe very light and great cushion. Only wish that it came in a wide

Very comfortable shoe but more stiff than I'm used to for a carbon plate shoe. Using more as a trainer rather than a race shoe.

Very snappy, great for a 5/10K effort or your speed work days. It takes a couple runs to break in the carbon plate for a little more flex. Cushioning in the forefoot leaves a little to be desired, especially if your going beyond 10K.

Great cushioning and response in the sole but the shoe does not secure the forefoot well and runs a bit short. Fast shoe, light, but could be better. My toes keep hitting the end. But again, its a fast shoe. Sole/cushion is great.

This shoe is incredibly light, with a comfortable upper and plenty of cushioning for those long runs. The carbon fiber plate provides energy return like you wouldn't believe. You can literally feel the shoe propel you forward. My one complaint is the lacing system. In particular, the eyelets in the middle are spread out farther than your standard setup, making it difficult to really get that snug feeling around the mid foot. As a previous wearer of the Endorphin Speed 2, I found the lacing system on that shoe more effective at keeping my foot locked in. But overall, this is an incredibly light shoe that provides maximum cushioning and energy return.

Comfortable & fast shoe. I haven't put enough miles or races on them for a full assessment. Feels like the Kinvara's with a bit of cushioning. The speed roll is subtle which I like. I'd race 10km and up in these shoes, shorter runs like 5km, Kinvara's. Should pair nice with my latest purchase-Speed 2

superb shoes, however they run smaller than all the other saucony shoes. I am wearing 9.5 in all my other shoes, kinvara 13-kinvara 14, ride 15, peregrine and peregrine ice... those are definitely smaller than the other models. I wish I had ordered a size 0.5 bigger. The bounce back is fantastic and definitively a game changer for your race.

I think they are a little slower than the Pro 1, but that's just personal opinion. Otherwise - the same great feel of lightness and incredible comfort. Great for long runs.

perfect for interval training. Feels great for times under 8min/mile. above that, it feels too aggressive, trying to propel the feet with its aggressive angle faster than then legs want to turn over. i'm 5'5". I train anywhere from 5min/mile to 9min/mile. I am also EE width so both the pro and speed cause my feet to hurt after 10 miles. I really wish saucony (or anyone other than new balance) made plated shoes that catered to wider feet

Great shoe. It is fast, bouncy, durable but It has so stiffness. Good for long runs, tempos, Intervals, 1/2 Mthon or more.

I must say I waited too long for my running shoes. These are worth getting to start running again and with the reflectors!!

A lot to like here. Pros: Fast and springy with great rebound. They have such a smooth transition. They are also so incredibly light. I can't believe the bounce at this weight. Cons: the toe wear is significant after only 30 miles. (Street and treadmill). I'm worried they won't make it to 100. My other issue is just a symptom of ordering online, I received an irregular pair. Right heel sinks in slightly. This makes for a noticeably awkward landing when running straight and even more on right turns. It's bad enough that I can't put too many miles on in a single run or the ankle and knee start to complain from over compensating.

i like the speed wearing these,they offer a good bounce

I can definitely feel a return in energy and do feel faster when I wear the Endorphin Pro 2. It's a bit snug for me, I normally wear a wide but really wanted to try these out. I think these would be great for me in a 5k or 10k but don't think I could wear them in a longer distance I needed to lace them differently for a little extra ankle support but I do recommend them. I just wish Saucony would make them in a wide width.

Great shoe for faster workouts and races. Has a very stiff feel, gives you good spring off the step. Not quite as stable though as the triumph.

Good return on energy. Compared to the Pro1, there is less heel slippage, but it is slightly heavier. The foam is comfortable at most paces, but it does seem a bit too stiff when running longer than half marathon distances. Overall it's a decent and affordable carbon plated shoe that is good for distances up to a half marathon. I would choose something else for longer distances.

This has been my favourite line of shoes for long runs and workouts. While I don't wear them on race day because they seem a little slower than "the other brand", they are by far the most comfortable, natural feeling and enjoyable road shoe available imo.

Straight line speed with no pressure points. Lateral stability it's only weakness. This is not a trail shoe anyways. Best runners I have ever owned.

Training in a comfort shoe normally, the Endorphin Pro 2 is much firmer, with amazing performance. Straight out of the box the shoe was light, springy, and incredibly responsive. As mentioned, I am used to a plush daily trainer - but the endorphin pro 2 was my shoe of choice for the 2022 Brooklyn Marathon... amazing shoe!! I am very happy with it as my race day performance shoe.

The shoes are performing well, although I did not notice a dramatic improvement in my speed. I am a bigger guy (6'2", 225lbs) and I found that the shoes started to feel a little rough after about 12 miles. I like the shoes a lot for half marathon distances or less.

Great shoe, lots of really good cushion, especially for longer runs. The stability around the ankle is a little weak.
