ASICS MEGABLAST vs Saucony Endorphin Azura

The ASICS MEGABLAST and Saucony Endorphin Azura are both highly versatile unplated trainers, but they express that versatility in very different ways. The ASICS MEGABLAST pushes the limits in almost every dimension, with a higher stack, more cushioning, more bounce, and a lighter build that makes it feel bold and energetic underfoot. That said, it can also come across as a bit more chaotic and less secure, especially if you prefer a more grounded sensation. The Saucony Endorphin Azura takes a more refined approach, proving that a shoe doesn’t need to reinvent the wheel to feel great. It’s simpler, more stable, and easy to trust across a range of paces, without feeling over the top. If you want the most dramatic, high-stack bounce possible, the ASICS is hard to match, but the Saucony makes a compelling case for less being more.
