Throughout running, it received almost unanimous high praise as a lightweight plated trainer for workouts, faster running, and even everyday running.
However, while the Pro was a great shoe and is beloved by many racers (especially for shorter distances), the Endorphin Speed ended up being the big surprise shoe. Last year, all the hype leading up to the Saucony Endorphin line release was around the Endorphin Pro, as it was expected to be a Vaporfly competitor, and perhaps the beginning of the end of Nike’s dominance in road racing.
Whether this was done as an homage to the first Fast and Furious movie premier 20 years ago, or because the designers were feeling nostalgic for the ska checkerboards at their last Reel Big Fish concert, or maybe a call back to some slip-on Vans, who can say! Anyway, the first thing you will notice is that the updated Endorphin line has some strong early 2000s vibes emanating from them. While not much has changed with the midsole, the upper has some modifications in both design and aesthetics. JEREMY: One of 2020’s top shoes (it actually won our Best In Gear Award for the Best Overall Shoe of 2020), the Saucony Endorphin Speed is back with an updated, full NASCAR racing motif.

Still one of the best running shoes money can buy.Updated upper, same exact PWRRUN PB midsole.
