The Nike Pegasus 41 is engineered to be your reliable companion for daily road running. Its core strength lies in its responsive cushioning, making each stride feel more energised and less fatiguing. The combination of ReactX foam and dual Air Zoom units (in both the forefoot and heel) provides a noticeable bounce, propelling you forward efficiently.
For example, during a 5k tempo run, you'll feel the cushioning absorb impact effectively, while the energy return helps maintain your pace. On longer, steady-state runs, the plush collar, tongue, and sockliner contribute to sustained comfort, reducing the likelihood of discomfort over extended periods. The engineered mesh upper ensures your feet remain cool and dry, even on warmer days, preventing overheating.
The waffle-inspired rubber outsole delivers consistent grip on typical road surfaces like asphalt and concrete, giving you confidence through turns and during push-offs. These shoes are best suited for runners looking for a versatile trainer for everyday mileage, from short recovery jogs to longer training efforts on paved paths.
Simply put on the shoes and use the lace fastening to secure them comfortably. Ensure the laces are tied firmly but not too tightly to avoid restricting blood flow or creating pressure points. A snug fit that allows your toes to wiggle slightly is ideal.
Activity: Designed specifically for road running and general training activities. Not recommended for aggressive trail running or technical terrain due to outsole design.
Foot Type: Suitable for a wide range of foot types, particularly neutral runners. The padded elements provide adaptable comfort.
Surfaces: Best performance on asphalt, concrete, and track surfaces.
Cleaning: To clean your Pegasus 41 shoes, gently brush off any loose dirt with a soft brush (like an old toothbrush). Mix a small amount of mild detergent with lukewarm water. Dip a cloth or sponge into the solution and gently wipe down the mesh upper and midsole. Avoid saturating the shoes. Rinse with a clean, damp cloth.
Drying: Allow the shoes to air dry naturally at room temperature. Donot use direct heat sources like radiators or tumble dryers, as this can damage materials and adhesives.
Storage: Store your shoes in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use to prolong their lifespan.
Maintenance: Regularly check laces for wear and replace if necessary. Remove insoles periodically to air them out, especially after intense runs.
