The hybrid shoe problem
The racing super-shoe problem
- The top-tier shoes (Vaporfly, Adios Pro Evo) are built for elite forefoot strikers: unstable under fatigue.
- Heel strikers lose energy and risk rolling an ankle in the final kilometers.
- You pay €250–280 for a shoe you can't control when it matters most.
The solution
The solution: carbon propulsion, a base that holds
The Endorphin Pro 5 widens the PWRRUN HG foam outward for a broader landing base, paired with a new progressive carbon plate that guides the foot from heel to toe-off. The result: super-shoe energy return with a stability that doesn't punish runners who aren't elite. An 8 mm drop welcomes heel strikers too.
PWRRUN HG foam
High energy return, low weight.
Progressive carbon plate
Smooth propulsion from heel to toe-off.
Widened stable base
PWRRUN HG widened laterally: less wobble.
Breathable race upper
Light and airy for long distances.

Testimonials
What athletes say
“First super-shoe where I don't feel instability at the end. The wider base shows in the last 7 km, when I usually start rolling my ankle. Marathon PB without paying the price on the technical sections.”

Verified purchase“I use it for the running legs in triathlon: carbon pop but stable enough to handle the transitions on shattered legs. The 8 mm drop is ideal if you don't want an overly aggressive racer.”
G.B. · Bologna
Age-group triathlete
Verified purchase“Honestly skeptical at first — coming from the Vaporfly I thought nothing could compete. The Pro 5 is more forgiving if your form isn't perfect: less snappy at short race pace, but more versatile across 10K and the half.”

My race-day weapon
A real super-shoe: stable for the class with explosive propulsion. Foam still holds after 3 races.

Smashed my PB
Used them for a half marathon: the carbon plate and responsive foam give a pop I'd never felt. Featherlight on foot.
