What one Redditor said

The 5s looks a bit more promising though. Not quite so stability-obsessed as the 4.

I'm using endorphin speed 5 for my speed and tempo sessions. Sometimes for long runs if I want to include some speed miles in between.

I got a much more positive impression from it from my first run than what I did from the 4.

The ES5 feel more natural and more stable and at the same time more flexible underfoot than the Zoom Fly. I tried the ES4 in this size and my little toe just had nowhere to go. The upper of the ES5 is

Es gibt die Endorphin Pro 4 gerade für den gleichen Preis wie die Speed 5 (weil der Pro 5 rausgekommen) ist. Meine Empfehlung wäre, stattdessen den zu nehmen. Bin gerade Berlin damit gelaufen - richt

Four varitions of grey, two variations of white, a lime green, and a pretty dull blue. I know Saucony can do better.

r/RunningShoeGeeksneutral2

That means I’ll wait for launch before buying my next pair! Wonder what the women’s colorway is… all I wear on daily training runs are endorphin speed. thanks for this!
