Our Verdict
Saucony Endorphin Speed 4
Saucony Triumph 22
The Saucony Triumph 22 and the Saucony Endorphin Speed 4 come from the same brand but serve different purposes within a runner's rotation. The Endorphin Speed 4 is a super trainer featuring a plastic plate, which enhances stability and provides significantly more energy return. This makes it well-suited for faster-paced training and racing. The Triumph 22, in contrast, offers more cushioning, providing greater comfort for daily mileage and recovery runs. That said, the Endorphin Speed 4 is a more premium model aimed at more performance-oriented runners.
