Unboxing the Nike Air Pegasus Plus felt just like unexpectedly running into a long-lost friend. But let’s find out if it’s really the running shoe we’re all jonesing for in this review.For those of us who have fast and fond history with this shoe’s still shockingly discontinued older siblings, the Air Pegasus Zoom Turbo (v1 & 2), the mere sight of this shoe will inspire all the wistful feels and have you itching to slip them on and see how they measure up to their predecessors.
(Notice how I didn’t mention the ‘tweener disaster that was the Air Zoom Pegasus Turbo Next Nature…yeah…I still don’t want to talk about those.)
But is the Pegasus Plus anything more than a run down Memory Lane?
Who is it Good For?
Who is the Nike Pegsaus Plus a good fit for, let’s break it down by some common categories:
- Wide Feet: Nike generally is not ideal for wide feet
- Heavier Runners: Better than the original Pegasus for cushion, but less stability
- Long Runs: Will work well for marathon training for most runners, unless you like higher cushion
- Front of the Pack: Faster runners will enjoy these for easy runs to quick workouts as a non-plated option
