Product Information
Full details
The Saucony Endorphin Azura is a versatile trainer designed for female runners seeking a blend of comfort and responsiveness for their daily mileage on asphalt. Featuring advanced PWRRUN PB foam and Speedroll technology, these shoes offer a lightweight, bouncy ride that facilitates faster transitions, making them an excellent choice for consistent training; however, runners looking for a carbon-plated racing shoe may find the non-plated construction better suited for training than competitive speed sessions.

FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for marathons?
Yes, their lightweight construction and high-rebound cushioning make them a great option for marathon training and even for race day if you prefer a non-plated shoe.
Can I use these for trail running?
The Endorphin Azura is specifically optimized for asphalt and road running. They may lack the necessary grip and stability for uneven or technical trail surfaces.
How many miles do these shoes usually last?
Generally, trainers with this type of high-performance foam are rated for 300 to 500 miles, depending on your running style, weight, and the surfaces you frequent.
Is the upper material breathable?
Yes, the engineered mesh upper is designed for maximum airflow to keep your feet cool during long-distance efforts.
What is the weight of this shoe?
While the specific weight depends on the size, the Endorphin Azura series is known for being extremely lightweight to support effortless turnover.
Can I replace the insoles with my own orthotics?
Yes, the factory-fitted insole is removable, allowing you to insert your custom orthotics for a personalized fit.
Troubleshooting
Foot slippage in the heel
Try the 'runner's loop' lacing technique using the additional eyelet at the top of the shoe to lock the heel in place.
Feeling of excess pressure on the top of the foot
Loosen the laces across the midfoot and try a 'window lacing' pattern to alleviate localized pressure.
Foam feels firmer in cold temperatures
It is normal for cushioning materials to stiffen slightly in cold weather; the foam will regain its responsiveness once warmed up by your body heat during the first mile.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Saucony Endorphin Azura trainers last as long as possible, follow these maintenance tips:
- Sizing: Ensure you have a thumb's width of space between your longest toe and the front of the shoe to account for foot swelling during long runs.
- Breaking In: These shoes are ready to perform almost immediately, but a short 5km walk or light jog is recommended to adjust the lacing pressure to your preference.
- Cleaning: Hand wash using a soft-bristled brush, mild soap, and cold water. Remove the insole to wash separately.
- Drying: Never place trainers in a dryer or near a direct heat source, as extreme heat can degrade the foam's integrity. Air dry in a well-ventilated area with laces loosened.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place out of direct sunlight to prevent material breakdown and colour fading.
