Saucony Endorphin Speed 4

One of the most popular shoes of the American brand and that, during this season, we are sure that will again be one of the best sellers of the brand, is the Saucony Endorphin Speed 4, a shoe that has a large number of followers who enjoy running fast on asphalt.

Versatility and utility are two of the keys to the great success enjoyed by the Saucony Endorphin Speed 4, a running shoe with which you can run fast both in daily training and in competitions, in fact, it is one of the mixed shoes par excellence of the Endorphin range of the brand.

Stay tuned to the next lines because we will present in detail all the features of this new version that, as we anticipate, presents a modernization of the design while maintaining the great technologies of previous versions.

Main features and novelties of the Saucony Endorphin Speed 4

At first glance, we can already see the new exterior design of the new version of the Saucony shoe, highlighting the outer part of the midsole, although the main technologies are preserved to maintain the versatility that the shoe boasts.

The rounder and more stylized finishes are the great innovation with respect to the Saucony Endorphin Speed 3, which already underwent a big change with regard to the previous versions and that we already had the opportunity to test at RUNNEA.

Review of the Saucony Endorphin Speed 3

The upper has a greater presence of padding, especially in the tongue that changes slightly as it is more padded, which gives us more comfort while running with the shoe.

The new shoe does not present great news in the midsole, (according to some rumors from months ago it seemed that they were going to bet on the incorporation of the new PWRRUNHG technology) so they continue betting on the PWRRUN PB technology that worked so well in the previous version.

In the midsole we can't forget about the nylon plate that works so well and that gives us the necessary reactivity to run at fast paces with the shoe and that is more recommendable for those runners who don't have such a refined running technique, necessary to make the most of the benefits of carbon fiber plates.

One of the novelties of the new version is the presence of an insole different from the previous versions, the Saucony Endorphin Speed 4 incorporates a new SRS (Super Responsive Sockliner) insole that provides extra comfort while running .

The design of the sole varies slightly from the previous version and in which the nylon plate of the shoe will be visible in the central part and a greater presence of the rubber compound in the front part to the detriment of the rear part.

From the technical specifications of the Saucony Endorphin speed 4, we highlight the 8 mm drop of the shoe and a weight of 233 grams in the men's version and 206 grams in the women's version.

Ideal runner profile of the Saucony Endorphin Speed 4

It is a shoe that adapts to a wide profile of runners thanks to its great versatility, not in vain it is one of the most popular shoes of the brand to run fast not only in training but also in competitions.

It is a perfect shoe for runners of light weight or even medium weight, with neutral stride technique and who need a fast shoe (even under 4'15 per kilometer) for training and/or competitions.

Recommended distances for the Saucony Endorphin Speed 4

It is not the first time we say it in this review, but this is a very versatile shoe, so we can use it in short distance races (10k), as well as middle and long distance, but we believe that it is in the middle distance and long distance where they perform better, since for the short distance, perhaps the shoes with carbon fiber plate of the brand can improve our performance more.

The Saucony Endorphin Speed 4 is still the bet for fast daily training and that we can also use in competitions, of the Endorphin range of the American brand, very similar to another of the outstanding Saucony shoes, the recently launched Saucony Kinvara Pro

The shoe is available in both men's and women's versions, with new colorways and an official starting price of 200€. We are sure that it will again be one of the shoes that we will see in the starting line of many running races this season.
