FAQs
What is the main benefit of the SpeedRoll technology?
SpeedRoll technology is designed to create a smoother, faster, and more effortless transition from landing to toe-off, promoting a forward-rolling sensation that helps you run quicker.
Is the PWRRUN PB foam suitable for daily training?
Yes, PWRRUN PB foam offers a soft yet bouncy and responsive ride, making it excellent for daily training runs, especially when you want a bit of extra pop.
Can I use these shoes for racing?
While designed as a high-performance daily trainer, they can certainly be used for races, particularly shorter distances like 5Ks and 10Ks, where their responsiveness is a key advantage.
What kind of runner is the Endorphin Azura best suited for?
They are best suited for adult female runners who prioritize speed and enjoy a responsive, cushioned ride for their daily miles and faster training sessions.
How does the fit feel?
The trainers are designed for a secure and adaptive fit, aiming to comfortably hold the foot in place during runs.
How should I clean my Endorphin Azura trainers?
Clean them with a soft brush to remove dirt and use a damp cloth with mild soap and water for deeper cleaning. Avoid machine washing and air dry them naturally.
Are these shoes good for trails?
The XT-900 rubber outsole provides good traction on various surfaces, making them suitable for roads and light, well-maintained trails. They are not designed for technical off-road running.
Troubleshooting
Slightly tight fit on one foot
Try using a thinner sock or consider a shoe stretcher for a more personalized fit over time. Ensure the lacing is adjusted correctly for each foot.
Reduced grip on wet surfaces
The XT-900 rubber provides good traction, but always exercise caution on very wet or slippery surfaces. Ensure the outsole is clean of mud or debris for optimal grip.
Feeling less cushioned on very long runs
While designed for performance, extreme long-distance runners might prefer a shoe with maximum cushioning. Consider using these for runs up to half-marathon distances or for faster efforts.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: These trainers are ready to wear straight out of the box. Ensure you have the correct size for optimal comfort and performance.
Compatibility: Designed primarily for road running, they are compatible with most running surfaces including asphalt, concrete, and light gravel paths. They are suitable for adult runners.
Care: To maintain the performance and longevity of your Endorphin Azura trainers:
- Cleaning: After runs, remove loose dirt with a soft brush. For deeper cleaning, use a damp cloth with mild soap and water. Avoid machine washing or harsh detergents, as this can damage the materials.
- Drying: Allow shoes to air dry naturally at room temperature. Keep them away from direct heat sources like radiators or sunlight, which can degrade the foam and adhesives.
- Storage: Store your trainers in a cool, dry place when not in use. Consider using shoe trees to help maintain their shape.
- Rotation: For best results, consider rotating your running shoes. Using multiple pairs can allow the cushioning to recover and extend the life of each pair.
