You’re ready for your first pair or your next pair of running shoes and it’s time to make the decision between two neutral models: Nike Pegasus vs Brooks Ghost.
Lucky for you, I’ve been testing out running shoes since 2002 and love to share my opinions and details about the shoes.
Each year, I test out new models from all the brands and put in enough miles to have solid feedback on feel, fit and whether I’ll be shelling out money for another pair.
Here I hope to help breakdown the differences and help you find the right option for running. In particular, we are going to focus on the Nike Pegasus 40 vs Brooks Ghost 15 in fit, feel and function. Both are flagship models for each brand, which means there are a lot of positives.
Nike Pegasus vs Brooks Ghost Overview
Honestly, I put on one of each shoe and jogged around for awhile to see if I could pin point the major differences. While there are some, the truth is they are so very minimal.
If you already know that you love one of these brands, then that’s the neutral running shoe I’d go for. Both are doing to serve you well for easy runs and I’d say even long runs up to 15 miles. After that, I often look for a shoe with a tad more cushioning, but that’s a personal choice!
