Fabulous shoes. Like floating on air. But the shoe laces are too short

Comfortable and light.
I found the size to be on the small side so ended up going up a full size,
Great shoe

So a decade ago I was running marathons and halves then took a long break now getting back. Shoe tech has come a long way. Energy return foam is something new so I’d say this… save it for either racing or your tempo days. This isn’t a do-it-all shoe and if you’re not at 8min/mi pace you’re better suited to look at something else.
As for sizing I am a 10.5 and needed to size up to 11 in these. I looked at the insole and stamped on it was sz10 while the tongue said 10.5 (the 11 had a 10.5 insole). The big thing is the base. The 10.5 felt like balancing on a ball while the 11 felt more stable. The difference is only 3/16th of a inch but it’s noticeable.

Excelent shoes very comfortable and great support for your feet. Also they are very light.
I rate them 4 starts because they are not good in the heal support. I wish They have the Hurricane ISO support Frame in the heal part of the shoes. My foot move to the side every time I step on it.

Great shoe, but the black has a blue hue to it that I wasn't anticipating. Still looks good and feels good. I have the original speeds, and these feel similar.... Possibly better, but they are still breaking in.

Super SOFT and CUSHY ride yet surprisingly springy with the nylon plate. I picked these up for my marathon prep but during the short walking warm up the right shoe seemed to be softer on the inside heal compared to the left. This caused my foot to roll in a bit. Because of this I ultimately decided to send these back. I also ended up with some serious pain near the 5th Metatarsal after running 4mi and removing the shoes. Maybe that was a coincidence but it was also on the right shoe. I'm thinking there might be a defect in this pair but I'm going to try another model for now. Thankfully the Zappos return policy is fantastic!!

I have 51 miles on my pair of Speed 2s. The weight is great. The slightly firm ride is fine. I actually use then for an everyday shoe. My only criticism is that the toe box is a bit narrow. I hope in the Speed 3 Saucony makes the toe box a bit wider. Otherwise a first class shoe. I went true to size. Maybe I should have gone a 1/2 size up.

Great shoes out of the box. Ran only two miles just to get a feel for them and was impressed. Unfortunately, they run a 1/2 size smaller than my normal size. Will be exchanging

Love the shoe, went from 5:30 to 5:10 min/km. Only criticism is the shoe is narrow, would be nice if it came in wide sizes.

I love the shoe for short and fast miles, but for anything over a half marathon they suck, way to tight around the sides of your front, not wide enough for your toes to take the swelling that comes with longer miles. To narrow in the toe box, other then that not a bad shoe, just keep it short.

Great shoe! Really doesn't get much better than this for clipping along a road. The campfire colour is awesome as well. Tried to order them through our Saucony dealing shoe store in town and I guess they weren't allowed to purchase it for me. Was a little disappointed I couldn't support a small town shoe store (that sells Saucony), but other than it's a fantastic shoe and I'll be back for the 3.

This is a comfortable shoe that meets a lot of my needs as a ~20 miles a week runner. As a speed, I enjoyed the cushion vs the firmer support in the Endorphin Shift. It's a sharp looking shoe; I wasn't caught off guard when I received them by any means, but Saucony deceptively never marketed them with models wearing them because as soon as I put them on I realized I look like I'm wearing bowling shoes haha. Make sure you don't want to wear these with pants because you'll probably get ribbed by your friends

I love the shoe but I find fit a little weird. Depending on how I lace it, it sometimes feels like I'm already angled towards overpronating.
No problems with the Runshield version but starting to get plantar aches because of the fit.

Almost 100 km in. Way more reflective than I thought they would be. Great bounce. These are my 4th speeds (also 2x first version and 1x runshields). Only problem, these run noticeable tighter in the toes as opposed to version 1. I wish I would have upsized 1/2 for more comfort, but they're still usable. Great quality, as usual for Saucony. Don't hesitate to try.

A light weight and very stable running shoe. It is very supportive. I does seem a little more abrupt on landing but is good for runs of 3-5 miles with no major discomfort in legs or feet.

Saucony Endorphin Speed 2s Mens work well in rotation with my Hoka Cliftons and New Balance 1080s. All have lots of firm cushioning. I slightly prefer the other two brands as the Sauconys are slightly narrower. All in all in great shoe.

Love the feel and extra spring when I run. My only complaint is that I wish you made this in a wide. I typically wear a 9, ordered a 9.5, as these run a tad small.

I've ran about 100 miles in these and love'em. I love the cushion and the slight propulsion forward. If you want to drop your mile times, this shoe is for you. If you're happy what you're running, then stay with your Kmart specials. ; )

A comfortable and cushioned shoe that has a nice spring. I have only ran on the treadmill with them so I don't know how the foam will hold up outdoors. Nice aesthetic look to the shoe. I gave it 4/5 because it is an expensive shoe and overpriced.
