As fall marathon season kicks into high gear, Saucony is celebrating the global running community with its limited-edition Fall Marathons Collection, featuring head-turning designs inspired by Sydney, Berlin, Chicago, and New York City.
Whether you’re toeing the start line in one of these iconic cities or logging your weekend long runs close to home, the collection brings that same race-day energy to your everyday training.
Two of Saucony’s fastest everyday trainers, the Endorphin Speed 5 (links to my review on YouTube – here’s my blog review, for those who prefer to read), and Kinvara 16 serve as the base for this drop, reimagined with bold colors and cultural design details from each marathon city. Here’s a closer look at what makes each pair special.
Sydney Endorphin Speed 5 – Green and Gold with Aussie Spirit
The Sydney edition of the Endorphin Speed 5 tempo and speed training shoe leans into Australian pride with a striking green and gold color scheme, subtle continent outline, and kangaroo crossing signs tucked into the design.
It’s a nod to the country’s enduring sporting legacy, and it looks fast standing still.
Performance-wise, this is the same Endorphin Speed 5 that’s built for smooth, snappy transitions, thanks to its redesigned nylon plate and springy PWRRUN PB cushioning. It doesn’t matter if you’re tackling intervals or chasing a half marathon PR, this shoe delivers the punch you need.
For anyone who follows me on YouTube, you’ll already know this shoe is my top ranked speed training shoe, right now.
Berlin Endorphin Speed 5 – Graffiti Meets Speed
Paying homage to Berlin’s legendary street art scene, this bold Berlin edition is wrapped in vibrant, expressive graphics that echo the creative energy of the city’s marathon.
Expect layered textures, pops of color, and the same speed-ready build that makes the Speed 5 a favorite for runners who want comfort with kick.
At 8.6oz and designed to handle everything from fast tempo runs to race day, this model is a true workhorse with style.
Chicago Kinvara 16 – A Flag-Waving Favorite
For the Kinvara loyalists, the Chicago edition of the Kinvara 16 brings the Windy City’s flag to life with white and blue hues and the signature four red six-pointed stars, each representing pivotal moments in Chicago’s past.
It’s subtle but full of meaning for anyone who’s ever tackled those flat, fast miles along Lake Michigan.
Underfoot, the Kinvara 16 keeps things light and fluid. Updated PWRRUN foam offers improved bounce and durability, while the refined midsole geometry promotes smoother transitions for runners who prefer a more natural, unplated feel.
New York City Endorphin Speed 5 – Haring-Inspired Hype
Arguably the boldest in the pack, the NYC edition honors legendary pop artist Keith Haring, transforming the Speed 5 with high-energy street graphics that feel unmistakably New York. Think subway sketches meet motion blur; loud, fast, and full of soul.
Like the others, it’s built for performance but leans into design in a way that makes it feel special, whether you’re running the five boroughs or your local loop.
