The formidable Pegasus has long been a crowd favorite, and it doesn’t let up this year.įleet Feet testers say the Pegasus feels peppy from the get-go. For runners who need more space, Nike also builds the Pegasus 37 in wide sizes. One tester says the midfoot feels pretty snug on her foot, which makes the shoe feel more like a performance model. Like the Pegasus 36, there are only five eyelets up each side of the shoe plus an empty sixth lace hole at the top that lets runners use the marathon lacing technique if necessary. Nike created eyelets from wide midfoot bands and threaded flat laces through them.
The tightly woven mesh creates a one-piece upper that’s seam-free inside and out, and the only reinforcements are around the eyelets. The heel collar flares slightly away from the Achilles tendon, which helps mitigate any rubbing while acting as a natural pull tab to help get the shoe on. And the heel collar is cushioned, yet streamlined, which offers a balance of performance and plushness.” “I immediately noticed the toe box felt wide enough to easily accommodate my foot. “Right out of the box the shoe feels comfortable,” she says. The lightness of the upper makes the shoe breathable and flexible, and it provided instant comfort to one tester. Nike pared down the Pegasus 37 to deliver a lightweight feel.ĭesigners draped the shoe in a thin, nearly translucent mesh upper that delivers a feathery fit and aerodynamic look.
