Our ratings use detailed reviews from knowledgeable runners, ratings for shoes in the same product line, and reliable product information from trusted retailers.
Rankings combine runner ratings, whether reviewers say they'd buy a shoe again, direct comparisons to other shoes, related product-line performance, and trusted external ratings.
The darker band shows the central rating range. The lighter band shows a wider range of reasonable outcomes. More reviews for this shoe usually narrow both bands.

Overall
got these shoes for summer training, and they lasted extremely well. Huge stack height and soft foam were very comfortable. I liked the upper and the lockdown was very good. The only flaw was that the side ripped after a while (like 500 miles). Wore them for a couple speed workouts too and they felt capable. Definitely would buy again.

I got these for extra cushioning after an injury and they are indeed cushy and comfortable. They were quite a change from usual Kinvaras, but they helped me keep running while I recovered. I guess my only complaint is that they're pretty dorky-looking. The back has a sort of shelf that sticks out and makes the shoes look like Frankenstein footwear. I still wear them at times, but I wish they were a little more aesthetically pleasing.

I believe in mixing up training shoes regularly, but if I didn't, I would train in the Endorphin Shift 3 everyday. The Shift 2 was the same experience and I haven't been disappointed with the Shift 3.

High stack height with outstanding cushioning.
Tread is durable enough to last 400+ miles but does not grip well in mud or wet wood
