FAQs
What is ReactX foam?
ReactX foam is a new midsole technology developed by Nike. It's designed to be more responsive, offering 13% more energy return than previous React foam, while also being more environmentally friendly, with a 43% reduction in the carbon footprint of the midsole production.
Can I use these shoes for daily training on roads?
Absolutely. The Nike Pegasus Trail 5 is designed for versatility. The ReactX foam provides ample cushioning and responsiveness for daily road runs, making it a great option if your training often includes both paved and unpaved surfaces.
Are these shoes waterproof?
The Nike Pegasus Trail 5 features a mesh woven upper for breathability. While it offers some protection against light splashes and debris, it is not fully waterproof. For extremely wet conditions, a waterproof trail running shoe would be more suitable.
How do I choose the correct size?
We recommend choosing your standard running shoe size. The UK 5.5 size is specifically for female adult feet. If you are unsure, it's always best to try them on, or refer to Nike's official size chart and measure your foot.
How long do these shoes typically last?
The lifespan of running shoes varies depending on individual use, running style, and terrain. Generally, running shoes last between 300-500 miles. Pay attention to signs of wear on the outsole and reduced cushioning responsiveness.
Is this shoe suitable for technical trails with lots of rocks and roots?
The Pegasus Trail 5 offers good grip and a secure fit for varied terrain, including light to moderate trails. For highly technical trails with sharp rocks and roots, while capable, dedicated trail shoes with rock plates and more aggressive lug patterns might offer enhanced protection and grip.
Troubleshooting
My feet feel unstable on uneven terrain.
Ensure your laces are properly tightened, utilizing the Flywire technology to create a secure, locked-in fit around your midfoot. Experiment with different lacing patterns to find what offers the best support for your foot shape.
The grip isn't as good as expected on very muddy trails.
While the generative traction outsole provides excellent versatility, it's designed for a mix of terrains. For extremely deep mud or highly technical, slippery trails, a shoe with more aggressive, deeper lugs might be required. Ensure the outsole is clean of debris before your run.
My shoes feel less responsive after many runs.
All running shoes, including those with ReactX foam, have a limited lifespan based on mileage and individual running style. If you've accumulated significant mileage (typically 300-500 miles), the cushioning may start to compress. Consider if it's time for a replacement pair.

Cons

Setup, Compatibility & Care
First Use
Upon receiving your Nike Pegasus Trail 5, simply lace them up to your desired comfort level. The Flywire system allows for a personalized, secure fit. It's recommended to wear them on a shorter run first to break them in and allow the shoe to mold to your foot.
Compatibility
These shoes are designed for female adult runners and are compatible with a wide range of running activities, including road running, light to moderate trail running, and mixed-terrain adventures. They pair well with technical running socks to enhance comfort and prevent blisters. The Grey (UK 5.5) model is specifically for female runners requiring a UK size 5.5.
Care Instructions
- Cleaning: After runs, especially on muddy trails, remove excess dirt with a soft brush. For a deeper clean, use a mild soap and cold water with a soft cloth or brush. Avoid harsh detergents. Allow them to air dry at room temperature; do not put them in a washing machine or dryer, as this can damage the materials and adhesives.
- Drying: Stuff the shoes with newspaper to absorb moisture and help maintain their shape while drying. Replace the newspaper periodically if the shoes are very wet.
- Storage: Store your shoes in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight or extreme heat, which can degrade the materials over time.
- Longevity: Rotate your running shoes if you run frequently to allow the cushioning to decompress and recover, which can extend the lifespan of your Pegasus Trail 5.
