The Heart Of The Classic Nike Rotation

This is a really good Pegasus. I’ve ran in versions 37, 38, 39, 40, and now 41, and I have to say this is the best one yet for what it is - a mileage workhorse. This is not the fastest shoe in the market, not the most cushioned shoe in the market, nor the most supportive. However, it is responsive, relatively lightweight, and stable enough to allow you to show up and log mile after mile after mile without it feeling like a chore. Especially with the new wider toe box, this really is now the shoe for those 30 to 90 minute every day runs that allow you to build your fitness from the ground up day after day. Perfect for easy runs with strides, medium long runs, and maybe a little bit of uptempo if you’re feeling good that day. Also great for doing warmups, drills, cooldowns, and light gym work. The only downside with this shoe is that, compared to Pegasus of the past, working out in this shoe does leave a lot to be desired. But then again, it got a lot better at long runs and recovery runs, which suggests that this really is that mileage shoe with a classic feeling for every day runs when you don’t want to overdo it. If you don’t like ground feel and you prefer a more cruise-y / rockered ride, then I would look at the Vomero instead. And if you need a faster shoe, I would look at the Zoom Fly, Vaporfly, or Alphafly depending on your budget and your needs.

Would Buy Again And Again!!

Love these so comfortable!!! I use these for work everyday and they feel awesome

I loved these! Great cushion and feel. Love the shoelaces, the small touches make this one of the best every day shoes I’ve seen in a while.

Love these shoes. They always fit perfectly and need no breaking in- put them on and ready to go.

Massive Change On The Soles. Very Disappointing.

I have been using Pegasus since 2014. Every year buying a new version significantly similar to the previous one. This year is the first time I am actually disappointed. The soles feel completely different. They seem too soft, it is like I can feel the ground more and it seems like it is not a high rase on the heel part as it used to be. It has not been a couple of months and it feels like I ran like a year with them. Also the fabric is already used on the back of the heel... They are new! I have been wearing my previous Pegasus 40 again to compare and they feel better even tho they are over a year old and been over used. It is the first time I am writing a review here as I have been consistently satisfied with my running shoes (always Pegasus from Nike) but not this time, I am even considering changing brand which is not easy after running with the same for over a decade.
