Customer Reviews Saucony Endorphin Pro 3

Love these for speed days or when I need some extra kick on a long run. Have only raced in them once but they have great turn over and keep my legs feeling fresh even after a solid tempo or speed workout. Good fit- I have a narrow foot/mid-high arch but they are wide enough in the toe box for me on longer runs. TTS.

Light and bouncy but finding the laces tight t the ankles and right medial toe area rubbing

I absolutely love the Endorphin line. Presently wearing Pro 3. Only concern is how fast the outer heels wear. Less than 125 miles and down to the white already and I don't weigh much.

I really like that the shoe is very light weight and the impact from running feels softer. I bought in winter but discovered it is a summer running shoe. The shoe does fit a little tighter at the tip than Kinvara and Triumph but you won't notice it until you hit a decline. I bought all three shoes the same time and liked them all for different reasons.

It's a great shoe. Very light weight and great for Silver Sneakers and the gym. Also, good design. The only thing I did not care for was the cost of this shoe.

These shoes are light weight and I love the carbon plate because I feel like they hold their form. My last 5-6 pairs of shoes have all been the endorphin speed 3's, which have been my favorite. The speed roll technology is cool, I do feel like I'm propelled to keep going because of the shape of the shoe. I feel faster in these pro's and my legs have yet to feel fatigued after a run. I bought these shoes about a week before the Chicago marathon. I wish I would have ordered them sooner. After two runs, I had a spot rubbed raw on my 'bunion' area, it was miserable. Anytime I ordered the speeds I could lace up and go, I never felt like I needed to break them in. With these pro's, it was different story. I love the look of the shoe, but I don't like the upper material and they do seem to be more narrow than the speeds. I did run in them at the Chicago Marathon and again, my legs felt fine with not much fatigue. My feet are on the wider side and prefer a softer upper material. I would recommend these, and feel like if the upper was the same as the speed 3's with the sole of the pro'sthat would be awesome!

I love this shoe. It's very comfortable as I have very bad plantar fasciitis. This shoe gives great support. My only complaint is that it's so breathable that your foot easily gets wet and sand enters through the holes on the top surface of the shoe if I wear them to walk on the beach.

Originally bought these in my size 8.5, but toe box was a little too tight for my liking. The mesh upper also has no stretch to it. Exchanged for a size 9 and the fit was perfect (I don't normally wear a wide, I wear 8.5 women's brooks adrenalines to train in). Completed 2 tempo workouts in these shoes which felt great, really makes running feel effortless. However, I developed some weird heel pain on my left foot after taking them off ended up racing my first marathon in them yesterday and weirdly enough, no heel pain! Was SO happy with how these shoes helped me glide through my race! They were just supportive enough that I didn't have any problem running 26.2 @7:40ish pace. And that's coming from someone who is injury prone and trains in a stability showNot sure what the heel pain was about but today is the morning after my marathon, and my heels both feel fine.

This is by far my favorite light weight, springy and optimally well-cushioned carbon-plated m marathon racing shoe except for one caveat: a "D" Width is not offered for women.

Liked the runners. Comfortable enough with roomy toe box. Disappointed however to find the red dye comes off on my socks and it's already ruined 3 pairs

Such a great shoe..if only it was available in a wide width . I had to size up a half size and can only manage about 15 miles before my IT band flares up. The Speed 3 has a wide width, hopefully Saucony will realize that a lot of wide width runners would buy this shoe much like NB did with their wide width carbon plated shoe .

They fit small and it's a pain to have to return them and wait for the refund to repurchase another pair. I'm a 9, sometimes 9.5, and a 10 was too tight on my feet. Having to go from a 9 to a 10.5 is nuts, sizing is way off. However, this shoe is insanely comfortable. It's such a light and cushy experience.

I love the weight and feel when running! I'm having issues with the lace on right foot. It's rubbing at the top of my foot and cussing a hot spot. Any ideas?

I use these shoes for my daily runs. I have small feet size 5 but bought a 5.5. I wish the toe box were a bit larger around the metatarsal area.

I loved this shoe, esp for my first run in them. Was worried about what size I should get and am happy with the 7.5 ladies I did. I was wearing thicker socks the first run and thinner for the second due to temperature differences. They were more comfortable with thicker socks on account of the tongue not really being gussetted and it being almost paper thin.. It moved around on my foot and lace pinching happened with the almost no protection of the upper floor area especially at the bend of the foot area.. I'd recommend that for the next version that being the only change... Have a gusseted tongue...and only on the inside is necessary!. Otherwise the sneaker rides well. Has the perfect balance of firm and soft and rolls nicely with you gait cycle.. I'd say this is one fo the most user Friendly version of a Carbon Plated Racer for sure... I have a slightly different gait and also am not up to almost elite paces... So find it hard to have a carbon plated sneaker that works well with my not so fast and not so perfect form. Good job overall Saucony on this being the best version yet of your Endorphin Pro

Love love love this shoe EXCEPT for the medium width !! Please release these in a W width !

The Pro 3 feels very different from the Pro 2, but in a positive way. Feels more cushioned so long runs are more comfortable. Stack height is ok, wouldn't want it higher. My only gripe is how high the tongue comes up on the front of your shin and the shoelaces are slipper. need speed laces to keep them tied. I rotate this shoe with MetaSpeed Edge and prefer the Pro.

These are great for gravel or dirt roads not sure i will race in them but very comfortable and stable shoe

Nice and fast shoe. The tongue slides down and/or to the side which is a bit annoying & puts unnecessary pressure in the top of the foot.

Need to put the old inserts back. The new ones with no heel cup irritate the bottom of the heel. I took the pair from an old pair and put in the new to solve the problem.

Runs small, order an entire size larger not a half size. It is cushiony which I do love

I have a couple of pairs of the second version and I recently bought the third to try. I feel like this is a completely different shoe!! The shape of the midsole is different and it is definitely NOT as responsive as the second version, which was the perfect combination of comfort and responsiveness to my liking. It is a beautiful shoe, but not as good as the seconda bit disappointed.

I should've taken the advice to size up. My toes - especially on my right foot - hit the end of the upper. I've never noticed a sizing discrepancy between the left and right in any other shoes. Also, the pinky toe area is snug. I do not have wide feet. For comparison, I did not have the size up for the Endorphin Speed 3. I am pretty bummed because these are the pink ones on sale and are non-returnable. That being said, they are repsonsive and bouncy - just wish they fit.

loved the endorphin pro 2's! best shoes out there! so i purchased these and my shin splints came back. i feel there is a lack of support on the side of the shoes, it's mesh and feels like it's going to rip. please bring back the endorphin pro 2 design :)

This is my second pair of Endorphin Pros, I absolutely loved the first pair I own, I retired them and use them as work sneakers now, they still had so much life in them post running miles! I have been avidly using Hokas for the past few years as my primary running sneaker. Recently, I opted to switch back and try the new Endorphin Pro. While I love how light they are and the cushion they offer with every step, I am extremely disappointed with the sizing. Within two miles of any run my toes become numb, which means the toe bed is not wide enough and the shoe is too small. I ordered these in the same size I order all my running sneakers and have never had an issue until now. I purposely go up a half size. These do not feel a half size bigger! Additionally, I have very narrow feet, so the width is not the issue. Unfortunately, I've worn them twice on runs now and can't exchange, so feeling pretty bummed about my new, fancy, and expensive purchase. Buyers regret! Don't make my mistake and order an entire size up.
