Here's what customers have to say

The shoes offer exceptional cushioning and energy return, providing a "bouncy" and "cloud-like" feel that allows for less effort and fatigue during long-distance and fast-paced running. However, the soft, responsive foam can feel unstable, especially at slower paces or during tight turns. Sizing also seems to be an issue, with some reviewers recommending going up a half or full size. The shoes appear to be polarizing, with some praising the unmatched comfort and performance, while others express concerns about stability and fit.

Don't waste your money!

Such a cheap and unstable shoe, not worth the price. BRING BACK THE 1st version!!! The bottoms got worn out after 2 wears and they are way too thin and light. As a long time Saucony wearer, I wish they would stop reinventing the same shoe and discontinue shoes after a year.

Love the Look, so comfortable for lots of running!

The best running shoes I have found. Comfortable and help my feet feel like I'm on a cloud!

What a game changer, I seriously doubt that my significant drops in time since my purchase are phycological in nature. What a great feeling sneaker, although they seem more limited in inversion/eversion stability. Loving the lightness to these sneakers and the feeling of a spring like run. I would highly recommend this sneaker on race day.

Endorphin Elite super shoe

I love the Endorphin Elite, just ran a marathon and my legs didn't feel as beat up as with past shoes. It helped cut about 5 mins off my previous time too. I like the heel better than the Endorphin Elite 1 but seems to run a bit smaller the the 1s. I highly recommend the shoe. Great shoe.

Elite 1 was a way better

I bought these shoes when they first came out and I was so disappointed that they changed the design, very unstable. The elite 1 was way better. The bottom of the elite 2 is so cheap, its almost like a soaked up sponge, no bounce back return once you hit the pavement, it started falling apart after my second time of use. I pray that they go back to original style of the elite 1. It would also be great if they could make a wide version of this shoe as well

I don’t know why they switched from the Elite 1

These shoes are extremely unstable and run way too big in comparison to the Elite 1. My first pair of carbons were the elite 1 and they were amazing, I felt really strong when racing in them. When I was in the market for new carbons I wanted to continue with Saucony because they worked in the past, however when I got these ones they were not at all what I was expecting - too big, my feet and ankles felt unstable, and the cushion was too squishy.

Running on a cloud

I bought these and am Sooo Happy I did. Or should I say MY FEET & Body are so Happy. These are my 2nd pair. I definitely recommend getting a half to whole size up. I normally wear a women 9 and bought a 9.5 a few months ago when I put them on I knew I couldn’t use for long outdoor runs because there is no extra room at all so I used to test on my treadmill and loved the cushion. I just bought a 10 and my feet and body don’t ache after my long runs. The cushion makes me feel like I could run forever. I dropped my pace down a whole minute. Light weight and very comfortable. Love them although the price is HEFTY I am happy.

Unlike any other!!

Wonderfull! I have fairly flat feet and have tried a number of high performance shoes. These are hands down the best for comfort and energy return over long distances. Highly recommend!
