Great Everyday Running Shoe!
I am very impressed with the fit, the "bouncy" feel and comfort overall. Great find!

Great running shoes
It’s a great option if you are not looking for super cushion-y shoes. They are stable and light, great for summer!

Good fitting running shoe
I haven't run in it yet, but I like the fit, feel and weight.

Best value shoe of the year
Closer to super trainer than daily trainer. Rewards going faster with its super bouncy foam—it’s literally hard to slow down. PR’d my 10k and mile in it. I rotate this with a superblast 2 (long easy run) and an Aeroglide 3 (daily trainer).

Great everyday trainer!
Has more of a pop than the endorphin speeds but it makes running on treadmills feel better because of the “structured cushion”. The toe box is wider than the endorphin speeds. Would highly recommend! They’re fun to run in.

Meh
I am still trying to figure out if I like them or not. They are "clompy" when I run. loud. I like the Saucony ride better. I'll may return them as they are not my favorite
