Features
The Saucony Endorphin Elite 2 proves that comfort and race-day performance can coexist.
Built around Saucony's new incrediRUN foam, this racing shoe delivers unexpected softness without sacrificing speed. A carbon-fiber plate and aggressive rocker shape keep you rolling forward, while the tall stack height provides plenty of cushioning to go the distance on race day.
Whether you're chasing down a marathon PR or blazing through a 5K, the Endorphin Elite 2's unique blend of soft cushioning and race-day tech creates a fast, comfortable ride that works with you when you're pushing the pace.
Details:
- Upper: A breathable one-piece mesh design with strategic reinforcement at the heel keeps the fit secure and comfortable. Extra lacing loops near the ankle lets you customize your lockdown.
- Midsole: New incrediRUN foam provides a surprisingly soft, bouncy platform. Plus, a slotted carbon-fiber plate adds propulsion and energy return while maintaining flexibility.
- Outsole: PWRTRAC rubber gives you reliable grip without excess weight and is placed strategically for durability where you toe off.
Outfitter's Tip: this is a UNISEX-sized shoe. Men's sizes are shown — women should order 1.5 sizes below their standard running shoe size. For example: for a women's size 9.5 shoe, order a size 8.
