Customer Reviews Saucony Endorphin Rift

A most excellent shoe; grippy, cushy and provides a ton of stability. I'm over 50, and have had multiple spinal fusions. Previously, trail running was out of the question for me because running on uneven surfaces caused me a lot of pain. The Saucony Rift has been a total game changer! The overall stability and comfort of this shoe has me going places I've previously stayed away from - I'm on the trails now, running off road with success and total comfort. I also love the 'sock' feel around the ankle & the grippy sole. I live in MN so on snowy mornings when my regular paved trail is covered in snow, the Rift keeps me on my feet when road shoes would be out of the question. This is a GREAT shoe. Extremely comfortable! Highly recommend!

My Feet feel so better!!! My feet are smiling - if they had teeth

These hiking shoes have been a game changer for feeling secure when hiking on gravel and steep inclines. I really like them. Design wise, the color/veneer around the base of the shoes started rubbing off. But the functionality is great!

I love how comfortable these sneakers are. However, I'm upset that they cost so much and the outside of the soles are breaking off. Saucony needs to do better. They look awful and it happened within a month of my purchase.

Omg I love these sneakers, the make as well as the model. I wish they came in pink. Very comfortable and stylish.

I did not buy these to only run in, but because I have been having a lot of lower joint problems. I've never stepped foot in a more comfortable sneaker. Loving them is an understatement.

This is a very comfortable shoe and quite stylish. Winter here we come!

These are the comfortable shoes ever. It feels as if you walking on air with a bounce and spring in every step.

I have a somewhat wide foot and appreciate the wider toebox. I'm not sure that I've ever put a more comfortable shoe on my foot and was extremely happy until about 10 days in when the color/material started wearing away from the sole. Hoping it's a fluke and I have a replacement pair on the way. Here's hoping. This is too much to pay for shoes that only last a month???

Wow!! This is what the Endorphin Edge was trying to be: fast, grippy, light-footed and super FUN! The one drawback is the fit/lacing. The shoes fit beautifully in the heel area but get a bit sloppy towards the forefoot where the laces don't go far enough down to get a secure lock-in. Will work well for wider feet though. My first run was over an hour on a mix of pavement, grass and snow and these were just a blast on every surface. Version two just needs better lacing and this'll be a perfect do-it-all shoe. It's better than the endorphin edge (more stable and softer) and the peregrine 13 (more fun, bouncy with more accommodating toe box). I would train and race in this shoe from 5km XC to 50km and beyond on all but the most technical trails.

I've used this for east coast trail running, including a 22-mile, 9,000' vert day. Fantastically comfortable. The PWRRUNPB feels a tad too firm for my liking when compared to last year's Xodus Rift or the Endorphin Pro 3, but does have that great light and responsive feel. In a perfect world I'd shape a millimeter or two off the lugs. Otherwise, stupendous.

It is a well-made shoe. I should have sized up a half-size, and because I did wear them once, out of my house, I was unable to return them. It is difficult for me to get my foot in the sock-type opening. In the right size, they would be great!

These are comfortable and chic yet a shoe horn is necessary

Was dazzled by the color (turquoise/white with a hit of yellow)! So I didn't catch tongue is fixedwhich meant my foot wouldn't bend to get in shoe. Sad had to return, but didn't make sense to have them setting around looking all cute taunting me. (But I do love my other Sauconys I bought at same time.)

Very comfortable. Wonderful grip. Good toe room. But after only 19 miles the coating on cushy sole is peeling. For the price, I would expect a more durable material for a teail runner.

I bought about a month or so ago. Very comfortable and good looking shoe although the sides are peeling off on the green part. Not happy. Looks bad

Nice cushion , feel great , however the show over all is I'll fitting toe box very wide with something very hard a the end. The heel is to lose which resulted in blister to the side of my heels . Overall Needs improvements

I have a blister on my right ankle. I wore my endorphins out walking. The shoe comes up too high on the right. It hits the bottom of my ankle bone and rubbed a huge blister. The shoe is wrong, it's not that high on the left.

These shoes began having issues day one, unstabel insole, less than 20 miles of training the outer sole began peeling away. Was hoping for more so I could alternate training shoes. ON Cloud for the win still.

The neoprene ankle opening is too tight compared to the rest of the shoe that is too loose. I personally couldn't get a snug fit so after a couple multi hour runs my fit were sore and blistered. I lovey.otjer Saucony shoes but these ones are a miss.
