Saucony Men's Endorphin Shift 3 Running Shoe

Great shoe! I wear it for the gym when I do cardio. Great for the treadmill, stepper, etc. Also great when I walk my neighborhood. Very comfortable, and the mesh on top lets your foot breath.

Wow I really like the Saucony Endorphin Shift 3. I wore Saucony Triumph a couple years back, and I thought they were fantastic shoes for a neutral runner, however I switched to NB 1080s the last couple of years when Saucony changed the toe box design and the shoe became too tight. My current running shoe, the NB 1080 v12 started to give me shin pain, so I decided to try the Endorphin Shifts 3 and I am so glad I did.I could feel the cushioning when I tried them on and went for a run. Running in these shoes was great for me, I no longer experience shin pain. The only nitpick is the Endorphin 3 do feel like a large shoe, but I think that is the tradeoff when you run in a highly cushioned shoe. I also bought a pair of Triumph 20's at the same time, the 20's no longer have the toe box issues I experienced a couple of years back. They are both excellent cushioned shoes, the main different is the Endorphin 3 seem a little more plush and cushioned. For folks who run in NB and are considering the Saucony's, I also found the size really similar to the NB 1080s and the toe box was not tight like the earlier version of the Saucony Triumphs from a couple of year back.Overall, if you are a neutral runner looking for some cushioning, I highly recommend the Endorphin Shift 3.

LOVE, I have always loved this brand for my feet,In particular for their great arch support wider, toebox and comfort. I absolutely love these shoes, my favorite to date!

Less cushioned and runs a little big, but not too much. Saucony Sole has improved with stability line, this is definitely the biggest change and it feels amazing. This is a daily training shoe, 10k races easy, but 21k or beyond, go with Endorphin Pro. Made for heavy people. WATCH OUT, is a high shoe, if you don’t like high shoes because you are worried about injuries on you ankles, this model is not for you. Price is normal, is not cheap is not expensive.

Its a good shoe, light and strong. It's a little tight in the toe-box but mine aren't fully broken in yet, and I've had tighter with Nike shoes. The forward roll is pronounced, but I haven't felt unstable on them. Might make things a little odd as a general shoe after they've been retired.I've read reviews that this shoe picks up rocks, and man, that's the truth. Not little bits of gravel, but marble-sized rocks in that big groove on the bottom of the shoe near the heel. They get deep, so they haven't been a problem during a run, I don't notice until I'm walking after and hear a clop-clop. They're easy to get out. I'm a street runner, so it's been okay so far, but trail runners might have to think about this.

I had my ankle joint replaced and when I could start walking without the boot, I needed something with lots of cushioning because my 2 year old Brooks Adrenaline grs 22s weren’t comfortable enough anymore at that point. I had always been told by my orthapedic surgeon that there are 4 brands you should turn to when you need shoes that are backed by a lot of science. Asics,, Brooks, New Balance and Sauconys. I had my eye in the Sauconys for a while because they seemed to have the most likeable color ways to choose from and they were the most affordable on Amazon out of the 4 choices! Research lead me to the Saucony Shift 3s. I actually purchased a pair of the Black and gold with white sole and they were so comfortable! I could actually feel the insoles give a little bit with each step. But then Im a real big guy. It was like walking on a pair of clouds! I thought I had a new goto sneaker but then I found out that Saucony is discontinuing the Endorphin Shifts! So I purchased a pair of the red ones, and then these.I also decided to test the waters in a pair of the Miles To Go color way Ride 15s and to my surprise they are just as comfortable! I also purchssed a pair of the Shifts for my wife and I just ordered us each a pair of the Kinvara 14s Because they went on a 40% off sale and they look awesome! I have been a Brooks man for many years but although I still love them, Sauconys are my new go to for great running shoes under $100!

I bought this in mid-August 2024 and run about 15 miles a week on average. At first it felt just ok in terms of its shock absorbent ability from running on the pavement, but in the past month or two clearly that has degraded as has the sole, which has worn through at the outer back edge of both shoes. Just not holding up as well as a prior version of this model after 6 months and about 360 miles on it. Unlikely to buy this model again, though would give Saucony another shot. Back to Brooks for a bit.

nice running shoe, nice arch support
