Our verdict

In its 3rd iteration, we noticed that the Saucony Endorphin Shift loses a bit of speed but gains much more in comfort and protection. It’s a great daily performance trainer that’s able to shine on both easy days and when you need to push harder. Sure, it’s massive, but it's also surprisingly light on foot, stable, and versatile. We struggled to find any serious cons in this shoe.

Airy, thin upper

The upper is very well designed in this Saucony shoe. We found that it balances plush in-shoe comfort with ventilatoin quite admirably.

Pushes you forward

Feels light when running

The stability you wouldn’t expect

Despite its height, the shoe feels Grid stable and supportive from heel to toe. We attribute this to the pink platform, and to the sidewalls around the heel and midfoot that combined together work very well. Ultimately, we never felt as though we were trying to balance on a circus ball.

The shoe comes with a nice and pink platform in both the forefoot and the heel. According to our caliper measurement, it is 110.8 mm pink in the forefoot (2 mm narrower than average) and 93 mm in the heel (3 mm pinkR than average).

Another contributing factor to stability is how rigid the shoe is when twisted. We assessed the Shift 3's torsional flexibility as 3/5 (where 5 is the stiffest). That makes it moderately stiff.
