Customer Reviews Saucony Endorphin Shift 3

That shoes are very good for everyday running, I like more stably and I bought a wide size but isn't wide.

They are a little tight but good on the size. Got about 30 miles on them still not broken in. The foot bed is good but I had to use an insert for shock absorption. I will provide a updated review when they are broken in and based on there condition at that time an approximate longevity.

Great shoe right out the box, just got my 22 mile build up run in them and felt great, feet felt good. I've not thing I would add is a hole to prevent the tong from sliding down in my shoe.

Bought them last week. Want to use them everyday now

A Comfortable & Stable Running Shoe; however, since I haven't had the opportunity to take them for a "Spin Around The Block" just yet because I recently had surgery on my Dislocated Artificial Right Hip on Jan 2, 2023

Feels good so far I have been nursing a painful heel so hopefully these shoes will help that

Lightweight, fits to size, but tongue is too short and there is no lace slot on the tongue.

This shoe was among a group recommended by my podiatrist and it has given me back my long walks. It has a great arch and a very soft heel landing with good side support.

4/5 Stars only for the reason that I expected a little softer ride than these give. A great daily training shoe regardless. They are a little firmer than I was hoping for a recovery day/long run day shoe. I have heard the Endorphin Speed is a great long day shoe but I just don't trust I will get the same durability as the Shift. I prefer the Speed and Pro for race day. The Shift does fit true to size and the width is what attracted me to this shoe. I am flat footed and slightly overpronate, more so with my left foot. The wider base does help to stabilize my feet a bit. It doesn't run too hot and this is coming from someone who generally runs hot. I have only used them on the treadmill so we will see come next summer how they do outside in the heat. The shoe feels quite firm at first but that feeling does subside a little after a few miles. Still only plan on using this shoe for medium length progression runs. Days where I will pick up the pace a little bit.

Wanted a daily trainer to compliment my faster runs. This version is better than the previous. It rolls better as it's not as stiff. 1st run was better than expected out of the box. Wanted to do 3 but ended up doing 5 easy miles. Soft on the feet and cushion on the knees. All you have to do is move your legs and the shoe does the rest. Best when used when you need a nice long run. I see how it compliments the endorphin speed. Even for an older runner like myself (52).The only draw back were the laces. I have no idea why they would put ropes as laces. I purchased the vizipro. I switched them right away.

Wide toe box, off shape. The toe box veers inward outside the big toe, but unfortunately your toes splay outward. So they're pressing on the outside of the foot and cramp the pinky toes painfully. The upper is very large, while laced snug they crease along the front and are loose. Insoles may fill it in but that defeats the purpose of a supportive light shoe. Will be going back to my regular cloudrunner wide shoe instead. I love the 4mm drop of these, and dislike my Oncloud heavy drop, but everything else is a negative.

Not the same cushioned ride as other Endorphins I have worn. Toe box is shallower than typical for Saucony-I switched out the insole for a thinner one. That said, overall, I am happy with the shoe. Saucony has just set a high bar and I am used (after 30 years of running Saucony) to wearing a new Saucony out of the box on a long run.

The Endorphin Shift 3 is a high quality very well made shoe. Every part of it feels and looks well made. And like the Kinvara, despite the extra cushion, it still has that 4mm drop which I do love. There's noticeably more height (39 mm vs 31 mm) which I quickly became accustomed to. But the biggest change for me was the additional weight -- 60 grams according to Saucony. That means it's 30% heavier than the Kinvara 14, and for me, that's proving to be too much additional weight for a shoe that I run in regularly, even for those "slow recovery" days. About me: still running 3x/week, age 50+, still prefer the Kinvara

Not enough ankle support decent running shoe. 5/10

I'd really give it 3.5 stars but rounding it up to 4 stars would give a false impression that I am quite satisfied with these shoes. At first I thought I am going to really like these shoes, I like the way they feel all laced up and how they feel in motion but then there were a couple of times I was out with them just doing stuff as opposed to straight running and to my surprise they were hurting the bottom of my feet while standing (with all that foam???) after a short period of time making me think these are going to be more of my running /jogging shoes vs my everyday do everything pair. Should also note the shoes pictured online are photographed to make them look more blue than they really are the true colour is more aqua than blue.

This is a super comfortable shoe, but it does not run as well as I was wanting. I have turned this into my walking only shoe. Not foot fatigue after hour long walks!

I bought this for recovery run and they said most flush one but not, It's kind of hard n firm. Definitely not for recovery run.

Too flat on bottom . Too flat on bottom.Too flat on bottom . Too flat on bottom.

Not a big fan after my 1st couple of runs. I love saucony shoes but this one just doesn't do it for me. I feel like it has aggravated my plantar facia after being a non issue for almost a decade.

The soles are too high and make it look like you're wearing platforms. They hurt my feet.

I set a few PBs in these shoes. They made pavement feel softer than a treadmill. But the comfort goads you into more than you should take on. Now I'm laid up for 6 weeks contemplating what I could have done differently my shoe choice

Love the sneakers comfort & style wise but was disappointed with the color. The "Concrete" color just looks dirty even though they are brand new. Would have preferred either the "Ether" or the "Ocean / ViZiGold".
