Designed to help you find your version of fast, the Endorphin Speed 5 combines Saucony's lightweight, responsive cushioning with their rocker SPEEDROLL technology and a nylon plate to propel you forward with confidence. In our Saucony Endorphin Speed 5 review, run tester Kate said "The Speed 5 provides a smooth, buoyant underfoot feel. It makes me feel like I'm floating. Don't be surprised if your running buddies have to tell you to slow down."
Details:

Saucony also enhanced the outsole with additional rubber coverage and added a vertical flex groove for better toe-off flexibility.

Love these!
The colour I got looked as shown in the photo, it is so comfortable and supportive on my runs, only thing is that I should have gotten a half size up because after a long while running, my toes are pressed against the front.

Nice
I like them I’ve only run 20 miles so far but they fit nicely. The tongue is short which weird but I still like them.
Star Rating is 5 / 5
Great long distance training
Finally don’t have shin splints or knee pain. Not too cushiony just enough support. Every shoe is different for everyone. Give some time and try out for yourself.
