Daily Trainer

Craft Endurance 3

Craft's mileage-building road trainer — a traditional 9 mm drop over Px Foam, for the runs that fill a week.

The Endurance 3 is Craft's shoe for building mileage. Its Px Foam midsole is 38 mm at the heel with a 9 mm drop, a more traditional geometry than most of the Craft range, and the third version brings a lighter reinforced mesh upper and the brand's Endurance Fit last for better lockdown.

It suits you if you want one road pair that covers easy days, steady days and the long run without a decision attached to it. At 265 g at UK8 it is lighter than Craft's softer trainers while still carrying plenty of foam.

It is not a racer and it is not a trail shoe. The ride is smooth rather than sharp, and the outsole is plain road rubber with nothing to hold a wet path.
