Our Verdict
Saucony Endorphin Pro 4
Mizuno Wave Rebellion Pro 3
The Saucony Endorphin Pro 4 and Mizuno Wave Rebellion Pro 3 are both carbon-plated super shoes, but each caters to different racing scenarios. The Saucony is better suited for shorter distances thanks to its lighter weight and firmer forefoot. It's also surprisingly stable for a super shoe, and its midsole feels more energetic. The Mizuno, while slightly heavier and softer, delivers a more cushioned and protective ride, making it better suited for longer races like marathons, especially for midfoot strikers able to activate the midsole fully.
