These trainers weigh 198g. Now that’s tricky to appreciate, so for comparison, the Nike Vaporfly Next% is 210g. So that’s pretty blooming light – and that can only mean one thing; these puppies are built for speed. But amazingly, they’re comfy, too: the fit around the toes is great, and it feels snug around the midfoot. The responsiveness is dreamy and that plate does its job of propelling, while the cushioning gives you comfort with every step. I’ve been wearing them on my 5-10K runs, and they have been nothing short of a joy. I’ve run a bit faster, my feet have felt secure with no pronation, and I’ve felt pretty powerful, if I’m honest. The Endorphin Speeds are beautiful, bouncy, speedy and very well made. What you get is everything you’d expect for 200 quid at £155. And that’s remarkable value.
