Minted NY x Saucony Endorphin Pro 5 Releases May 16
Minted NY returns for a third collaboration with Saucony, this time reimagining the brand's premium race-day shoe with a chrome-heavy finish. The Endorphin Pro 5 features metallic detailing across the upper and laces, paired with a textured midsole that channels the aesthetic of emergency space blankets.

Since its 2021 launch during the pandemic-era running renaissance, Minted NY has positioned itself as a thoughtful interpreter of performance footwear. The London-based brand's partnership strategy with Saucony—now in its third iteration—reveals a shared design philosophy centered on finish and material innovation rather than colorway spectacle.
The Minted NY x Saucony Endorphin Pro 5 doubles down on texture. Chrome treatments define the upper detailing and lacing system, while the midsole takes on a deliberately crinkled appearance reminiscent of reflective emergency blankets. The result feels considered and deliberate, avoiding the hypercolor trap that often derails collaborations. This restraint echoes the brand's earlier Endorphin Speed 4 partnership, a genuinely underrated effort that prioritized craft over hype.
Release Details
The collaboration launches at the Minted NY London pop-up on May 16th at Saucony's Covent Garden location, with a general online release to follow on May 19th at 11:00 AM ET. Stock will be limited given the physical-first rollout strategy.
For those tracking Saucony's recent market activity, the brand has maintained steady retail presence—with current deals averaging 40% off across select models—making this full-price collaboration release a notable positioning statement.
