Reviews
All around shoe
"Out of the box it has good fit with room in the toe box. The shoe feels aggressive in forward propulsion. The foam feels medium firm, it is not overly soft but borders on not being forgiving enough. I could see this being good speed work/tempo shoe but not sure about going full marathon in them."

"Shipping could be better, the quality price factor of the sneakers worth the wait."

This shoe checks all my boxes!
"I've got weird feet. Wide with bunions on both big toes. It makes finding shoes that are comfortable nearly impossible. The non-restrictive upper of the Endurance 2 form fits to your feet like a glove and the foam cushion underneath is superb. Fit true to size with a slightly wide toe-box - quality and finish 100%."

Good not great
"Good traction. I like the slightly wide and high-volume toe box, but these are a pain to lace up. They look very nice if you have to wear them casually. I think the design is my favorite aspect. The foam is slightly behind their competitors at this price point. It's a decent daily trainer, you can probably run 350+ miles in them before they are really beat down. They fit my custom orthotic fine (which I used maybe 2-3 times in this shoe). It's a decent shoe for running on gravel. The traction is good on roads and even relatively grippy in wet conditions. The shoe offers some ground feel particularly in the forefoot. I think a 6mm off-set and a bit more cushion up front would benefit the shoe. Not a bad daily trainer but I wouldn't use it for anything but easy run. I tried it in a couple workouts and it just wasn't smooth. Love the black and white color, as it transitions easily to a casual shoe. A lot of the other colors are a bit crazy to me."

Endurance 2 Running Shoes
"This is my first pair of Craft shoes and they have not disappointed so far. I have high arches so I am using insoles to help stability and help prevent plantar fasciitis. I have ran is Saucony Endorphines and Hurricanes for the past few years and the Endurance 2s are right on par with them. They are my favorite pair in my rotation right now. I run on the average 15-20 miles a week currently and these shoes are extremely comfortable on the both the short and long run days. They are light, breathable and the cushioning is bouncy and comfortable. Craft has definitely gotten my attention as a running shoe brand I will go back too."

A Hidden Gem — My New Favorite Road Shoe
"I’d never heard of Craft running shoes before picking up the Endurance 2 (along with the Nordlite Ultra Pro), and honestly — I’m blown away. These have quickly become one of the best additions to my shoe rotation. The Endurance 2 is light, smooth, and surprisingly cushioned without feeling mushy. It’s a true road shoe with a clean, efficient geometry that rewards good mechanics. When I’m running well, the shoe absolutely comes alive — but it also quietly encourages better form on days I’m a little sloppy. There’s a precision to the ride that’s hard to find in this category. For daily training, steady efforts, warm-ups, and mid-distance runs, these have been outstanding. Comfortable upper, stable platform, and a foam that feels both responsive and forgiving. Great shoe. Seriously underrated. If you haven’t tried Craft yet, this is the one that will make you a believer."

Light, responsive, not a fan of the tongue
"Shoe flows well, light and airy. Lacing up I always need to loosen and pull the tongue. It feels like a thin plastic strip that is not easily adjusted. Shoes have held up well with little show of wear. For the price, I feel these shoes are adequate. Comparing to the Hoka Clifton I am still siding with the Hokas."
