Stay tuned for all the details on the Saucony Endorphin Elite 2 in action.
Ran the 10k on Sunday in these - loved them. Can’t imagine there are many super shoes that would have liked the U-turns. Felt absolutely unreal along embankment.
Looking forward to spinning them out at Valencia Half in October
Good luck glad they worked
Ran LDN 10k in Adidas Pro3… back under 50mins… working my fitness back down to sub 45… great to say hi to you at the finish! Love your channel!
Looks epic. Be interested to see how this performs over the marathon and half distance.
This looks promising, perhaps more of a crowdpleaser than the Elite 1 seemed to be.
For now i'm very happy with my pro 4s that i just got. My threshold pace was 2% faster than running with my Mizuno Wave Rider 26s i had been doing all my runs in.
Hopefully Saucony improves the traction before the wider commercial release, or for Paris tbh imagine having athletes in your shoes slip and fall in the Olympic marathon 😬
Total agree
Absolutely! Just ran Gold Coast Half with the Elite v1 early this month, it was rain and wet. The Elite felt not enough grip, micro slips here and there. But managed to cut 12 minutes from last year.
I’m jealous. That looked like a lot of fun.
Great effort considering your recent injury! 👏
Thanks a lot
I just got some saucony trail runners Excursion Tr16 can’t wait to try them out saucony is really my favorite. I’ve gotten into ASICS and puma recently. I had to get the trail ones tho bc they’re the new version of the ones I had 20 years ago when I could first make my own choices about shoes lol they were just a random buy from Sierra trading post and they won my little heart. I like buying men’s bc I have narrow feet so men’s are just right roominess w/o being too wide and blistery, for me personally.
First super soft super foam I've seen people compare to zoom x. Will be interesting to see if the Saucony foam is able to last more miles than the Nike foam
Sounds great Fordy, just wish ordinary runners like me could afford these types of shoes. Love the videos though.
Looking forward to the Big Half cobble test for them 😂 Just received my v1s from when Sportshoes had them on sale last week and they feel plenty soft for me - think I’d be pronating all over the place in the v2s
The big cobble test 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
The real question is, " Are you fast enough?" Ha ha , will you do a comparison with the Elite ?
I really liked the elites, though I'm pretty slow, and I still felt fine in them, probably because I like the firmer foam and wide toebox compared to ep3. ( I also wear vibram 5 fingers ) I bought the alphafly 3 but returned them as I didn't like the foam as too soft and didn't like the toe box.
Elite 2 looks like a great shoe, but I feel it will be like the alphafly 3 ( looks like that's what they were going for) so I would presume more people will like it.
I like everything about it apart from the foam, it's a 180 compared to the elite. It looks like the pro 5 will probably be the new pwr hg foam trainer, and the elites going forward will be this new softer foam .
Is it still aggressive ? I know you had sore feet before with the elite, so I wonder with the softer foam does that compensate for the aggression of that plate.
Great review as usual.
Prob not
Are you the only shoe reviewer globally who managed to snag a pair? TH-cam is very quiet on this shoe. So you’re telling me these are softer than new balance rebel foam?
Yep
I'd be amazed if anyone snagged them via the UK website. There are absolutely zero (that I've seen) on the reseller sites and the bots and resellers would normally jump on a shoe like this.
I use speed 4 for my 10k so love how they feel. I have my first half on 5 weeks then 3 more halfs before Manchester full in april. For me would you recommend these over pro 4 ?
“In the summer of 2024”. Who’s summer? 😂 some watching from Australia.
I. Will. Have. These.
@@kaprikornian1 Me. 2. 4. Sure
Good morning. First Like to Fordy. !!! Saucony for ever!!!. Have a great day.
Thank you
Do you have any idea how i can get my hands in these shoes?! I keep looking and it says they are sold out, but i can’t seem to find anyone with a pair either, weird
Compared to the metaspeed skyedge paris? Or vaporfly?? As fast or?
Second like to Fordy! Saucony Speed forever, this shoe too expensive for me.
Thank you
Fordy can you do test Diadora Gara carbon? it race shoes from italian legendary brand
No they haven’t sent me them not sure why
I have them. The softest racer I have with a carbon plate. Low drop feels even lower due to the cushion. Roomy to box, VF shoelaces, snappy plus they look pretty sharp.
@@Otis220 great, Can you recommend them for purchase as the only once racer shoes?
Hi Fordy interested to what socks do you race in?
You’ll be in the AP4 for Berlin 👌
Hero
Just bought the Adizero Pro 3 and ran 21k this weekend.
How would you compare these to the Elite?
How is it compared to elite 1?
You mention the softness of the foam and the thin strip of rubber - what is your expectation or thoughts on durability?
Not great
Saucony needs to release a budget racing shoe, cause even the normal speed is too expensive for me, I’m stuck using the speed 2
Honestly, when I've tested a brand new pair of Ride 15 at the running track (video is available on my channel), there were just 7 seconds of difference between them and the carbon plated Pebax foam based Endorphin Pro 2, on a 5K. If you are on the budget, just race on a "relatively" new pair of running shoes (after wearing them for at least a hour at home, performing 1 running session to see if they fit you well).
How’s the sizing on it Fordy, tts??
For me yes
Let’s see how that outsole looks after 100 miles….
I won’t get 100 in them
Thank you, what’s your weight?
12 stone
I know we shouldn't wish our life away, but roll on spring 2025😂
🤣🤣🤣
First world problems, but that is such a terrible medal design. Looks like a security pass on a lanyard.
I like it
