Saucony Endorphin Pro 4 Women's review: what runners say
Fit
Narrow toe box: go up half a size from your usual. The sock-style upper wraps the foot well, but the integrated tongue tends to bunch up when lacing down.
Feel
Soft, stable ride geared toward middle and long distances. More comfortable than the v3 but less snappy: the forefoot rocker geometry is less aggressive and reduces propulsive push-off.
Durability
Highly durable latex outsole with minimal wear after testing. Estimated lifespan of at least 400 km before being demoted to training duty.
Best for
Marathon and long-distance running for runners of all levels, including heel strikers. Race-day shoe for recreational runners and fast-training option for more performance-oriented athletes.
Weak points
Tongue runs long and tends to bunch under the laces. Weight up roughly 10 g vs. the v3. Less responsive than the previous version, especially during speed intervals.
