FAQs
What is the main difference between Pegasus Premium and standard Pegasus models?
The Pegasus Premium features a triple-stacked cushioning system (ZoomX, ReactX, Air Zoom) for enhanced comfort and responsiveness, whereas standard Pegasus models typically use dual-density foam with a Zoom Air unit.
Are these shoes suitable for marathon running?
Yes, the advanced cushioning and responsive design make them well-suited for marathon distances, providing comfort and energy return over long periods.
How do I choose the right size?
Refer to Nike's official sizing chart and measure your foot. These trainers have a snug, supportive fit, so ensure there is adequate room in the toe box.
Can I use these shoes for gym workouts?
While they offer good cushioning, their design is optimized for running. For gym workouts involving lateral movements or heavy lifting, cross-training specific shoes are generally recommended.
What is the weight of these trainers?
The approximate weight is 275 grams (9.7 oz) for a women's US size 8.
What is the heel-to-toe drop?
The heel-to-toe drop is 10 mm.
How does ReactX foam compare to previous React technology?
ReactX foam is approximately 13% more responsive than previous React technology, offering a more energetic feel.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too firm/stiff initially
This is common with new, highly cushioned shoes. Wear them for shorter runs initially to allow the foams to break in and adapt to your foot.
Traction feels slippery on wet surfaces
While the outsole is designed for grip, extremely wet or polished surfaces can reduce traction. Exercise caution and consider specialized wet-weather shoes for very slippery conditions.
Upper feels too tight or loose
Ensure you have the correct size. Adjust lacing to find a secure but not constricting fit. The stretchy knit upper should conform to your foot's shape.
Excessive cushioning causing instability
These shoes are designed for neutral runners. If you require significant motion control or have severe pronation issues, these might not be the best fit. Consult with a running specialist if unsure.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: These trainers are ready to wear right out of the box. Ensure you have the correct size for optimal fit and performance. Trying them on with your usual running socks is recommended.
Compatibility: Designed primarily for road running and general athletic training. They are compatible with most running surfaces, including pavement, treadmills, and light trails. They are not specialized for trail running or highly technical terrain.
Care:
- Cleaning: Wipe the exterior with a damp cloth to remove dirt. For the interior, use a soft brush or cloth. Avoid machine washing or submerging in water.
- Drying: Allow the shoes to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not place them near direct heat sources like radiators or in a tumble dryer, as this can damage the materials.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use.
- Midsole Care: While the ReactX foam is durable, avoid excessive pressure or twisting when cleaning the midsole.
