Love these! Speed is easy. Would suggest going up at least a whole size. Normally go up half size, but feel a full size might be better for the toe box. Recommend highly.

It looked like a nice shoe and my daughter reported that it was very well cushioned. However, it did not provide the stability that she needs to run, so I had to return it.

The Saucony Endorphin Speed line consists of some amazing shoes that I would recommend to anybody, but I think that the original shoe in this line was perfect and the 2.0 model just didn't check all of the boxes for me.
The original shoe had a much softer, more springy sole, and I find the 2.0 to be stiffer. I think it's all preferential, but for me the spring in the shoe makes all the difference.

I am happy this shoe. The roll heel to toe feels good and the cushion is good. I am making improvements on my speed workouts. Only complaint might be the shoe squeeze by the toesbut my speed workout distance is around 3.2 miles once a weeklonger runs multiple times a week it might become more of an issue. As of right now I would purchase again. Size seems to veryI used to be an 8 in running shoes but would recommend the 8.5. I am not a narrow foot but definitely not wide.

Like others, I found these shoes to be small even after sizing up. I usually wear a 6 dress shoe, 6.5 running shoe. The 6.5 was too small in the toe area. I sent back, considering a larger size. Otherwise the quality and feel of these trainers are excellent! Light weight, amazing cushion and gorgeous color. Very impressed & prompted by excellent reviews online.

Pretty comfy and lightweight. The only complaint I have is that sometimes I feel like the cushion on the bottom is throwing me off center. But I'm still loving them.

Love the color/look and springy sole, but the box of the shoe constricts the forefoot and gives me a lot of discomfort as soon as I stop running. I am hoping they break in and stop doing this after a few more runs because everything else is great.

I got these when an elite running acquaintance recommended them. They are SUPER light, super comfy! I've never put on a pair of shoes before and noticed they feel like a whole different level of comfort and responsiveness.
The downside is that they cramp my toes- I have narrow feet and consistently wear a 7 in nearly every shoe, sometimes even a 6.5. I ordered these in a 7 since that my regular size and sadly, I should have gotten a 7.5. After an 8 mile run I had a blister under one of my big toenails and every run causes pain in my big toes.
Another downside is that the super elevated sole is kind of narrow and I have rolled my ankle a few times while running in these. Overall a great shoe but the sizing seems to be a big off,

Took a couple runs to get used to, definitely run faster with these on but stiffness tends to hurt my legs, wish I could use more but just not a daily use shoe. Would use for competitions.

This was a Christmas gift. They were perfect except the shoestrings were so short they could not be tied except in a knot. So disappointed.

I was looking for a shoe to alternate with the Kinvara (also and awesome shoe), I love the feel of the Endorphin, the speed-roll really works. I'm a forefoot striker and the from landing to take off feels snappy. It's great! They do run small, I'm having to buy a second pair a half size bigger. I'm finishing my long runs with numb toes. I'm consistently a size 7.5 but not in this shoe. It says a lot though that I'm willing to invest on a second pair.

I love this shoe and have converted over to the Speeds for the past year. I am on my seventh pair and I cannot say enough great things- wonderful fit, fast, easier on my joints, they dry quickly, and they look great. Unfortunately, similar to the other commenters, the Endorphin 2 runs small. I found this out after a toenail loss and a trip to a podiatrist due to a painful callus that formed under my pinky toe that needed to be cut off. It was a result of too much pressure due to the tight shoe. I sized up half a size and ordered two new pairs, but my previous shoes still have some good miles on them but I can no longer wear due to the tight toe box.

I recently bought the Speed 2, a splurge and change from my usual triumphs and hurricans that I've alternated between over the past 8+ years. (I buy new ones every 5-7 months due to wear from running every day.) These shoes look good, are good quality and have great action when running or even walking, rolling your foot and propelling you forward. BUT be warned, if you have longer toes like I do, these do NOT fit like the triumphs or hurricans in the toe box. I have lost a toe nail on both feet because of the shorter space, even though there isn't as much padding as the other models. To clarify, size up. I am a 9.5, but for this shoe, I'll need to buy another pair in size 10 to save the rest of my toe nails.

While they did have a lot of cushion and we’re comfortable, I felt uneven on my feet, almost like I was on a platform

I ordered my normal "running" shoe size of 8.5 (I wear a size 8 in my regular shoes). These are very small. I will not be using for work out - just casual.

Look and fit great. There was a big curve at the ball of the foot, then the toes dropped down.

I tried on this style in the store and needed to go up half a size. I ordered a half size up and they are big. I should have sent them back, but I am trying to make them work. These shoes are very cushy, almost to the point of being a little off balance when I walk. They are the priciest athletic shoe in my closet and the least worn.

It feels fevery small and tight. The shoe bottom also feels like it rolls your feet inwards towards each other, which I'm not a big fan of. My calves end up hurting after about 3 miles in these shoes. I'm going to keep trying to break them in, but these will likely become yard shoes or walking shoes.

Comfortable shoe, great cushion. Decent arch support. However, the black is basically just painted on the foam and less than a month in of wearing them 3x a week and the black is flaking off. I first nocied slight cracking in the black and figured it would stay but once the flakes started they likely won't stop. Very disappointed in that aspect. Would not buy them again solely for that reason as they are going to look terrible by the end of month two.

This shoe has enough cushioning but it turns my step inwards even though it's supposed to be a neutral shoe. Would not purchase again.

Usually don't have to size up but with the Vizioro I had to go a half size larger. Also, one foot has an area that rubbed which is unusual with my previous purchases of Saucony's

I have 2 pairs of the Endorphin Speed 2 and 1 pair of Endorphin Speed. I have worn through the original Speed's and 1 pair of the Speed 2's with no issues. They fit great and really improved my running. I've just broken out my 2nd pair of Speed 2's and they are MUCH smaller than the other two pairs. I thought maybe they'd stretch, but after a few runs my toes are still sore. Disappointed as the first two pairs were amazing. All are size 9.5.
