Customer Reviews Saucony Endorphin Edge

The fit and size of these shoes were perfect, just like every recent pair of Saucony Endorphins I’ve tried. My foot locked in place effortlessly without having to cinch the laces to the point of cutting off circulation. Then came the trail run... oh boy! It was like running on a cloud with traction. Despite the cushiness, the shoes felt stable. On the downhills, the heel cushioning absorbed the impact while the cleats gripped the ground, making the descent feel solid. On the flatter parts of the trail, the carbon plate really shone through, making me feel like I was wearing my Speed 3s. Uphill, the traction excelled, and the carbon plate returned energy to my stride, encouraging me to push on even when my calves were screaming, as if the shoes were saying, "Come on, we’re in this together!" They didn’t feel overly disconnected from the terrain, so they should handle technical trails well, although I haven’t had a chance to test them there yet. My initial runs were on some slightly muddy trails in the Pacific Northwest. I opted for the black/gold colorway, which looks nice without screaming for attention like the pink version. They’re purpose-built trail running shoes, so while they’re not exactly a fashion statement, the color combination I chose wouldn’t look out of place with casual wear. I really can’t imagine much room for improvement with these shoes and can highly recommend them to anyone looking for super comfortable trail running shoes that feel like they disappear on your feet and get the job done!
