PositiveA 215 lb heel-midfoot striker wanting a stiff forefoot, roomy toe box, smooth rocker and stability found the Endorphin Trainer ticked every box on a first 5-mile run: true to size, the most accommodating Saucony toe box they've tried, no heel slippage.
Of the 8 reviews with a clear verdict, 75% are positive, 0% mixed and 25% negative. The praise mentioned most is great for long runs. The most common complaint is heavy.
The complaints reviewers mention most: heavy (2 reviews) and wears out fast (1 review). For example: The thick, dense PWRRUN layer deadens the IncrediRun foam, so it's neither bouncy nor soft, and he didn't enjoy running fast in it. It's heavy, the transition isn't smooth and it's loud. Cushioned enough for daily miles, but cheaper trainers like the Novablast 5 are better, so he wouldn't recommend it.
