The Endorphin series has been thoroughly reviewed at Runner's World. It's a better cousin of the similar but lighter race shoe that successfully passed US Olympic trials. Great cushioning, high-tech upper, COOL and comfortable. NOT too high; it's incredibly stable. And the price here is amazing. If you are a serious runner you will probably read the reviews. Do it. I run in Asics, Hoka, NB, Brooks. Most of their best shoes will fit you. This is a great show at a great price.
