I had read a review of ten running shoes that cushion the ball of one's foot. Several years ago, when riding a bicycle I came down with a syndrome called, "Hot Foot." This is where one pushes too hard against the bike pedal and the pressure can be damaging to the nerves in the sole of the foot. Now, Part 2 arrives, and the ball of my foot, mainly the right foot on the outside of the big toe is pulsating pain when wearing my regular cushioned Mizuno shoes. The review described where the extra cushioning was placed and gave a good rating. After reading several reviews on the various brands, I settled on this pair. When I received them, I put them on and within minutes the pain stopped. I have been wearing them now two days and no more pain. I like the webbing on the top side of the shoes too. Easy to slip on and off.good everyday trainerExtremely breathable and light. Shoe does take a bit to get used to, but doesn't require any break-in and is ready for short or long runs. Saucony Endorphin Pro is the most breathable running shoe in my collection and my 2nd favorite pair of running shoes that I own. Does have moderate cushion and is comfortable & springy. Reacts better for fast runs; not for jogging nor walking. Shoe is true to size but a bit narrow. I do prefer the Endorphin Pro over the Endorphin Pro 2.Male, 6’1, 180lbs. These running shoes are great. Fit is right on and the cushion ride on medium to long runs is really comfortable. Usually, I have soreness the day after long (5-10 miles) runs but not in these shoes.the product was ordered based upon the data in my current shoe. This shoe fits my foot where I have a bone problem that acts up if the shoe is too tight. The shoe in the order when tested proved to be too tight, thus the return. The Process of Amazon was great, when I went to return the shipment. This is the first time I needed to use the capability.Score is Saucony Men's Endorphin Pro Running Shoe 0 and Amazon 5 stars.I have the Speeds and they are terrific. So, I bought a pair of the Pros for race day. Turns out that I really like the Pros to wear, and to use on the treadmill, misc runs. Although, I'll use them on race day because I spend $200 on them, I don't think they are faster than the Speeds. (I'm a 21 min 5K). The Speeds have a bit more bounce, and soften the run a tad more than the Pros. But there is very little difference. My girlfriend and I think the Speed is best running shoe ever. And between is we've bought hundreds of high-end running shoes over the years. My other recent race shoes are the Skechers Speed 6s which are definitely much lighter than than the Pros. No comparison in bounce/roll. The Pros outperform the Skechers. But they cost more.This are great running shoes for training or racing . I have improve a few minutes on my workouts . Ran my first half marathon in this shoes , broken my time from last year.Awesome shoe for speed work and seems like a great race shoe, I have not used them for racing thoughI’ve always bought 60 or 70 quid ASICS before, and they were fine. But, I must say if you try a pair of carbon plated shoes, you will not go back to cheaper trainers! Mid foot bounce is really really nice, and they feel much softer to run - so no pounding pains in my knees.Whether you buy the pro or the speed I don’t think you will be disappointed. They fit as expected. Very light. The laces are lovely and have never come loose on my long runs, unlike my other cheaper trainers.The only thing I don’t like is that if it’s wet outside they can be a little slippery. Also my big toe was a little numb on a cold day run as the top is very light and thin and airy, and you can feel the cold on a cold day. I suggest a couple of pairs of socks!However would definitely buy again. Looking at the Vaporflys too, as my next pair, as I think they are better in the wet.Anyway, you need to try this new generation of carbon or nylon plated shoes, they are in a league of their own. Some people say that if you race in these you are cheating, I would say it’s just the next generation of running shoes so get over it!!Ordered on Sunday 24 Jan and running shoes arrived on Wed 27 Jan - a week before the expected arrival date. These haven't even launched yet in the UK so I was amazed when they turned up. Fit is true to size (UK 10.5) and shoes look and feel amazing. Will update again once I have ran in them. Will definitely use this company again.It's like running on air. So comfortable and they make you run that bit quicker due to the carbon fibre design. Expensive but worth it.If you value your body and want a comfortable pair of pro shoes that will protect you from injury, then get these.Perfect fit - like running on air - with an extra pushFelt good on feet and first run did feel to move me along at a good pace for my standard did feel faster so made me a happier runner
