I have run in every Pegasus since the Pegasus 30, and after every run in the Pegasus, no matter what version, I think to myself that this is the perfect goldilocks shoe. This should make the shoe softer and lighter. The highly anticipated Pegasus 37 is rumored to have a React midsole instead of a Cushlon. It's also not like Nike can't afford to buy new molds and machinery every year to manufacture a brand new shoe. Some might see this approach by Nike as an 'if it isn't broken, don't fix it' strategy.īut, I think Nike should take more risks and change the upper, midsole, and outsole every year: it keeps things fresh and innovative. The Pegasus 36 is an in-between year where only the upper gets updated. The Pegasus is also available through an array of third-party resellers and online shops.Įvery second year is a big update where the midsole, outsole, and upper all change. Most large malls have a Nike store, and every Nike store carries the Pegasus. If you were to blindfold me and make me run in any version of the Pegasus, I could tell you that I'm running in the Pegasus-the ride is that distinct. It is consistent: you always know what kind of ride you will get with the Pegasus.

You get a shoe that will last a long time and is well below the average price of modern running shoes. It is well-priced: at $120 the Pegasus is a bang for the buck.The popularity of the Nike Pegasus stems from three main reasons: From the vast, open plains of South Africa to the dense concrete jungles of Singapore, you can bet your bottom dollar that on any run, any time of day, you will pass at least a handful of people wearing the Nike Pegasus.
