The Saucony Endorphin range includes some of the best running shoes available for the road, such as the Saucony Endorphin Speed 3 and Pro 3. However, on the trail side, the performance of the Endorphin shoes has been more of a mixed bag.
The Saucony Endorphin Edge carbon plate racer is one of the best trail-running shoes available, but the original Endorphin Trail was a miss—heavy and overpriced. The Saucony Endorphin Rift is somewhere in between. It’s fun to use, but doesn’t excel at anything and is too expensive when Saucony and other brands have alternatives that cost less. The Asics Fujispeed 2 in particular is a better option.
