SauconyEndorphin Speed 4

Verdict

The Saucony Endorphin Speed 4 is one of the top-rated shoes in its class — a speed trainer scoring 90/100 in SoleHunt's data-driven evaluation, drawing on 0 consumer reviews and 0 independent expert tests. Tipping the scales at 218g, it is notably lightweight for a speed trainer. The 35mm heel stack — a generous stack — delivers a plush and deeply cushioned ride at 25 HC, returning 74% of impact energy and feeling exceptionally bouncy underfoot. Geometrically, the Endorphin Speed 4 runs on a mid 8mm drop that works with most running gaits, with a 27mm forefoot stack that maintains the traditional heel-elevated geometry runners with tight calves often prefer. Fit-wise, the toebox measures 94mm — roomy, with space for wider feet and swelling on long runs — and the upper is available in B/D/2E widths. True to size. SpeedRoll geometry shifts stride efficiently. It is designed for tempo runs, race day, speed workouts, versatile training, and performs less well for recovery runs or plantar fasciitis.
