I've run over 1000 miles in Peg 35s and 36s, I lasted 1 run in these before I hated them. They're heavier than 36s, the road sensation is like a dead thud, and there doesnt seem to be much bounce in them either. The fit feels clunky, no where near as form fitting and streamlined as the old model. It doesnt help to make the upper light and then put a huge brick of heavy React on the bottom. Its like swinging a brick on the end of your leg. Just not seeing how anything done made the shoe any better, seems like the result is quite the opposite. Stockpile 36s and Turbo 2s while you can, hopefully the 38 reverses course.
Only had them a week, my feet are still getting use to them. Bouncy cushion feels pretty good. The forefoot box seems a little tighter than previous years. This might be because they are still new. Doesn't bother me running. The tongue is a little weird. It has a notch out of it at the top supposedly to line up with your leg. The tongue is also affixed to one side. I have high arches,so the notch is on the side and the point of tongue goes right up my leg. So far it hasn't been a problem running. Looks a bit odd. Overall, they are an incrementally improved model, in the tradition of the Air Zoom Pegasus. I like that. I can trust these shoes to deliver year after year.
These just didn't feel right on the feet, they look great and we're fine to walk in but I definitely couldn't use these for running. I have flat wide feet, weigh 115kgs and these were just too uncomfortable. I went on a 5km run to test them out and was getting pain in the center of both feet for the majority of the run. Also I was getting some heel slip on the left foot which was quite loud and annoying. It's really confusing that Nike doesn't make wider fitting shoes to cater to people like myself. This is the second pair of running shoes I've purchased and had to return because they're just not right for my feet and nowhere near comfortable. I'll have to go elsewhere instead.
I bought these shoes after returning Nike Epic React and I'm glad I chose Pegs 37. I used Pegs back in 203-2014 and after that, I have mostly ran in Flyknit series. But Pegs 37 has come a long way This shoe asks for a "break-in" time.. it took me ~50-60 kms before it started showing it's capability. I have already ran 100 kms in 8 runs and I'm pleased. Took them to trails, road, track and they are great I bough the kinetic color which is mostly white with a shade of blue and purple.. looks nice but gets dam dirty if you are in trails.. I would probably pick another pair of Pegs 37 on my birthday :)
so good daily all-round training shoes! especially, Pegasus 37's good soft cusion protects our feet from injury even if losing balance while driving on unpaved rough roads. and regarding speed, An Air Zoom unit at the forefoot boost speed so that at last I can run about 04:30/km pace with 2 pair of them in this one year! Thank you so much for Nike and Pegasus 37! sincerely with best regards
Great fit, lightweight and wonderful cushion landing that makes you ready for lift off. The 37 is a great runner / walker that has stability - no feeling of the heel wanting to roll to the side. Laces are a great length allowing for tightening without making them too long. And when you want to wear them loose they are still long enough for a good tie. Traction grips the surface well. My surfaces have been dry and have not felt any loose slippage with the gravel or the sand on trails. The grey 37's have a professional look making them my work shoes. I've been able to swivel in my desk chair and stop quickly, allowing me to appear very active during online meetings. Yes get the 37.
I was very disappointed by the Nike Air Pegasus 37. I purchased 4 pairs and have returned them all due to the peeling off. Anything that touches the shoes make them peel off. I have never seen this with any sneakers let alone expensive shoes like these. This defect didn't exist with the previous Pegasus shoes (12, 13, 14, 35, and 36). Nike needs to fix this for the next generation.
Ever since I got this shoe 7 months ago I've loved it since day one. It's the most comfortable cushioning and fit I've ever felt. I was deciding between this and the Adidas Ultraboost and the Pegasus 37 came out the clear winner with comfort and style. However after 6 months, the right shoe started making squeaking noises in the forefoot as I walk which became a bit annoying. I'm assuming the forefoot Zoom air unit is loose which causes the squeaking as I walk. I've ordered another pair and hope that it won't happen again. Looking forward to the Pegasus 38 and further improvements!
I'm not sure why Pegasus 37 only a forefoot zoom unit where the last generation Vomero has full length react and full length Zoom unit. Sounds like a downgrade since the last generation pegasus also had a full length zoom unit. I'm excited for the shield version, since the other react shoes don't have full length hard rubber in the shield version. As for the bad side of the shoe, the thing I'm most disappointed with is the lack of a stealthy or triple black colorway. I've been waiting since the Zoom Fly 1 for a triple black serious running shoe. Please add some stealthy and muted colorways that don't have the nike swoosh so prominent. I'd instantly buy a triple black Zoom Fly or Pegasus 37 shield.
Was looking for a show for distance walking (up to 30 miles) and was not pleased with recent react foam shoes, so looking to go back to zoom cushioning. These were excellent right out of the box, no break in required. I put a short walk - 5 miles - into them yesterday and they were great. Solid traction, firm with the right amount of give, and good lockdown without being too tight. Recently with Nike shoes I've had experiences with rubbing at the heel tab, but not with these. Will do 20+ miles this weekend on the road, so looking forward to it. Too early to comment on durability.
