Saucony Endorphin Azura Reviews

Light, fun, stable and efficient; likely their new workhorse, though outsole coverage is limited.

40 miles in after hip pain in the Vomero Plus: stable, planted and a classic do-it-all shoe.

Firmer and much more stable than other super trainers; one of the few that never bothers their picky knees and feet.

Firm-side and stable enough at easy and steady paces, but not at faster ones.

On a 10 km run, more stable and better underfoot than a Novablast 5; the tongue slips a bit.

Nearly as fast as the EVO SL but far more stable; their go-to.

About 300 miles as their go-to shoe through 2026, on easy runs, long runs and the occasional tempo workout. They found very little loss of energy return, an outsole that held up well with mostly cosmetic wear on the exposed midsole, and a very stable ride. The foam leans firm, so it is not for anyone wanting a soft, plush shoe; they see it as a durable do-it-all option for runners with a small rotation.

About 100 miles as a daily trainer on gravel and dry muddy tracks. They liked the grippy outsole, the bounce and cushion that work across a wide range of speeds, a wide and stable fit, a true-to-size breathable upper, and a midsole that loosened up and got more pop over the miles. Downsides: the very long laces, which they swapped, and the looks. They would use it on long runs but have other shoes they prefer for that; they see it as a good entry to fancier daily trainers.

At about 130 miles it's stable with solid foam, though they haven't gone past 10 miles in it yet.

Not exciting, but a stable, protective, lightweight workhorse for easy and marathon-pace running.
