While the Endorphin Pro 2 and Speed 2 rely on carbon-fiber and nylon plating, respectively, the Endorphin Shift 2 provides plateless propulsion on the run.
Saucony designers bring together the best of SPEEDROLL technology and PWRRUN cushioning to create a responsive ride without the stiffness of a plate.
This makes the Shift 2 much more friendly for everyday training, as daily training in a plated shoe is not widely recommended.
The thick stack of PWRRUN foam and low offset height provides enough cushion and stability to last through blocks of high mileage and speedwork alike.
Our reviewers loved the responsive cushioning and rolling feel.
“I didn’t feel like I was digging myself out of cushioning on the run. I noticed the cushioning on landings, where I need it most, but otherwise these shoes pretty much melt away as soon as I put them on. They are so lightweight and bouncy, they handle hills and long miles really well,” says one reviewer.
