FAQs
Is the Endorphin Azura suitable for marathons?
Yes, its responsive cushioning makes it a great choice for long-distance training and racing for neutral runners.
Does this shoe provide arch support?
The Endorphin Azura is a neutral trainer. It does not contain specific medial posts for stability, though the base is inherently stable.
Can I use these for trail running?
These trainers are designed primarily for road and smooth path use; they lack the aggressive lugs and protective plating required for technical trails.
How often should I replace these shoes?
Typically, these trainers provide optimal performance for 300 to 500 miles, depending on your running style and surface conditions.
Are the insoles removable?
Yes, the insoles are removable, which allows you to insert custom orthotics if required.
Troubleshooting
Heel slippage during runs
Try the 'runner's loop' lacing technique to increase tension around the ankle collar for a more secure fit.
Accumulation of debris in the outsole
Use a soft-bristled brush to gently clear small stones or grit trapped within the rubber lugs to maintain traction.
Odors developing in the interior
Remove the removable insole and allow both the shoe and insole to air out separately after each workout.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure optimal performance, ensure you have selected your correct UK size, as the adaptive fit is designed to be snug but not restrictive. When first using the trainers, lace them firmly to engage the adaptive fit system. For care, keep the shoes away from extreme heat sources such as radiators to prevent foam degradation. If the shoes become wet, remove the insoles and stuff them with newspaper to air dry naturally in a cool, well-ventilated area. Avoid machine washing or drying, as these processes can break down the structural adhesives and cushioning properties.
