Both Saucony models here carry the Endorphin name, and both are built to run fast. The Endorphin Azura is made for quick daily runs, with SPEEDROLL technology and PWRRUN PB foam. The Endorphin Speed 5 adds a full-length nylon plate between two layers of PWRRUN PB. Read on to see which one fits your training.Read more

What the two share

Both run on PWRRUN PB foam. Saucony describes it as soft and bouncy in the Azura and as responsive in the Speed 5. Both are made for running at pace.

Where they differ

Endorphin Azura

A stripped-down design keeps it light. SPEEDROLL technology is there for smoother, quicker transitions from step to step. XT-900 rubber gives long-lasting grip, and the upper offers a secure, adaptive fit. Saucony built it for fast daily miles.

Endorphin Speed 5

The key part sits inside the midsole: a full-length, semi-rigid nylon plate between two layers of PWRRUN PB. Saucony describes the result as a balance of propulsion and cushioning.

The outsole has more coverage at the heel for durability. A full-length groove is there for a smoother transition from foot strike to push-off. The upper is a lightweight engineered mesh. Saucony made it for track nights and for chasing a PR.

Which one fits your training?

Most of your runs are daily kilometres at a good pace? Look at the Azura. Planning sessions and race efforts? The plate in the Speed 5 is the reason to pick it.

In short: the Azura for everyday speed, the Speed 5 for the days you push hardest.
