FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for running?
Yes, the Air Zoom Pegasus 42 is specifically designed with responsive cushioning perfect for running and active play.
Can I machine wash these shoes?
No, machine washing can damage the foam and structure of the shoe. Wipe them down with a damp cloth instead.
What age group are these for?
This model is designed for kids, specifically for those fitting a UK size 4.5.
Do they provide good ankle support?
They feature a low-cut collar, which is designed for maximum mobility, though it does not offer the same support as a high-top shoe.
Are they good for wide feet?
The shoe features a wide toe box, which offers more room than standard competitive running shoes, making it accommodating for various foot shapes.
What is the difference between ReactX foam and standard foam?
ReactX foam is engineered to provide more energy return and long-lasting cushioning, making it more responsive than entry-level foam.
Troubleshooting
Laces coming untied frequently
Use a double knot or ensure the laces are threaded through the eyelets tightly before tying.
Outsole losing traction
Clean the bottom of the shoes with a brush to remove debris and pebbles that may be lodged in the tread.
Foam appears compressed
Allow the shoes 24 hours of rest after heavy use to let the ReactX foam rebound to its original shape.
Pros and Cons

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the best experience, secure the laces properly without overtightening to maintain healthy circulation. The shoes are designed as a standard UK size 4.5 fit; if your child has significantly wide feet, the wide toe box helps, but consider trying them on with their typical sports socks. For care, keep the shoes away from heavy mud or water saturation. Clean the exterior by wiping with a damp cloth and mild soap; avoid putting them in the washing machine or dryer, as extreme heat can compromise the foam cushioning and adhesive integrity. Air dry at room temperature away from direct sunlight.
