Customer Reviews Saucony Endorphin Speed 4

I bought these as my first road running shoes for a Ragnar. Turned out perfect. Very comfortable and bouncy, could definitely tell the difference. Will be purchasing more colors!

Super light weight. Great support and cushion. Gives you something back with each stride!

Im sad that this shoe doesnt come in a Wide. The toe box is too narrow for me. I returned it. The Endorphin 3 had a Wide size and it was perfect.

I have this shoes for almost a month and are very easy to use on the day to day training, either a short or long runs.

I tried the Endophin Speed 4 after several years with Hoka's Mach 6. Use them for speed and tempo work. The Mach is great: light, stable, just enough cushion. The Endophin Speed 4 is just a bit better. It uses a nylon plate that help compress and expand the midsole foam more quickly, sending more energy back to my legs. Maybe it creates an illusion that I'm faster in them than in the Mach. But it's fun.

Excellent great cushion great trainers compliments my Endorphins Pro for racing

I never received my shoes and Saucony never informed me so I waited 3 weeks before I called them and found out.

I like this shoe I had an earlier version these seem a little more stable very light weight shoe and very narrow great cushioning. Wish they had better colors to choose from I chose the black ones after the green ones I originally ordered came defective a package related issue not defective construction just to clarify

The light weight of the shoe and roomy toebox is nice, HOWEVER.theres something off with the shoe, as it DESTROYED the fifth (outside) metatarsal of both of my feet. I had to go to a podiatrist to diagnose and help recover.

I've been an Endorophin collection fan but the Speed 3s were a problem from day one. I even returned my backup pair I bought. The comfort and cusion on the 4s balance speed a performance perfectly. Whatever they did, they did right.

These shoes are extremely light, fits great and urges you to go! You won't be disappointed. I use for my faster runs and will probably try for some daily runs. Either way I think it'll be fine for all runs!

Im your average runner nothing special. 6.4 190 pounds. I have used these or a version of them for 3 marathons and about 5 half marathons. They have always fit well and held up exceptionally. Price is fair as well for a nice quality running shoe. I also love the small company vibe. I am up little upset about a small seem that has already come undone on my endorphin speed 4s down where the tongue meets the top of the shoe. I dont think it will hurt anything it just hurts to spend 180 and it already be ripped after 4 runs. Ill keep buying these as long as run. Do wish they would make size 14 in the elite distance shoe as well! Thank you all

Good responsiveness to stride but poor materials. After the first wash the stickers blew off.

My favorite release of the Endorphin Speed so far. Soft but responsive with comfortable uppers. I had issues with the Speed 3 rubbing above my heels regardless of sock height or lace tightness. The Speed 4 have resolved this issue so no more blisters :-)

I bought the new version of the Endorphin speeds, and they are the greatest daily run shoe Ive ever found. I did however try to go bold with the orange color, and oh boy theyre bright. So much brighter than they seemed online which is a little too much for me, but Ill have to deal with them and run them into the ground. Hope they fade out, ha!

Most comfortable running shoes Ive EVER USED. Ive tried so many brands and types, these are the best by far.

Great just wish I had more of Saucony gave me a sponsorship deal.

After watching a few videos about this this shoes i decided that this ones would be the perfect shoes for me

Great all around daily trainer that allows you to do many different things

I've run the Endorphin Speed 1, 2, and 3 shoes, each to about 600 miles, and have now put about 150 miles on the Endorphin Speed 4. I loved the version 1 and 2 shoes (which were very similar), and quite enjoyed the 3 as well. People say the 3 is softer, but what I mostly noticed was a larger heel platform for added stability. While I run neutral shoes, I do think that the v1 and v2 shoes did become a little unstable as they wore down, so the change in the v3 shoes was welcome. The v4, however, is a step backward from the 3, in my opinion. Lots of publications claim that the v4 is faster and stiffer, and maybe that's true, but I hardly noticed much difference compared to the v3. What I DID notice was the shorter toe box (less height vertically) and the expanded heel design. As a result, I feel pressure on my small/pinky toes from the upper and the shoes overall feel sorta "clunky" to me with the new heel design. The reduced toe space is highly disappointing, since the previous versions of the shoes felt spacious, and of course the clunky feel to the heel makes the shoes feel less fun and comfortable. In summary, while I loved the Speed 1+2+3, to me the Speed 4 is sorta just average. I could run 5 miles or 20 miles in the previous versions of the shoes and they just disappeared on my feet, while the 4 constantly reminds me that it's there with the toe pressure and awkward sole design.

Ive been wearing saucony for about 5 years now, specifically the endorphin line. Was very disappointed with the speed 4s. Not too sure exactly what happened or where they went wrong but everything about the shoe just isnt working for me. The fit, the ride. After just three runs I noticed a significant amount of shin pain, and the return and comfort that the speed 3 gives just isnt there with the 4s. At first I thought it was just me but after talking and hearing from over a dozen runners, they all say the same. Im which all resorting back to the speed 3s. Looking forward towards the speed 5s I would definitely go more of an endorphin speed 3 route. Speed 3: 4.5/5 Speed 4: 2/5

I've been training/racing in the endorphin line for over a year now. The speed 4 in my opinion is the best daily trainer out there for any easy mileage days. Just when you think things can't get better saucony produces yet another upgrade that produces success.

My son loves these! They are super light and comfortable.

I ran thousands of miles in the previous eight pairs of endorphin speed 1-3s. The speed fours might as well be a different model. They are not good. If you liked the previous versions, steer clear of these.

Shoes feel nice and light when running. Its not heavy and feels comfortable even when running long distances.
