[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These Nike Air Zoom Pegasus 40 are extremely comfortable!! I wear anywhere from 10.5-11. I got these in size 11 and they fit perfectly! They're terrific for daily wear, running, working out, etc. I wear them all day, 8 hours plus and they keep my feet from hurting, or getting tired. They have excellent grip for when running too! They're lightweight, breathable, and really good quality! Also, the colors and design on these is fantastic!! Definitely one of the best pair of Nike shoes I've owned! If you're looking for shoes that are very comfortable, supportive, breathable, and have excellent grip, I would highly recommend giving these a try!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I’m going to start by saying, WOAH comfort! The moment the sole’s met, I knew they were the one (I mean this very literally). The Pegasus is like walking on memory foam with the stability and durability of a running shoe (dreams coming true, folks!). In addition to the comfort, they’re super cute! The design is flattering for any outfit you may have in mind. In fact, being that I mostly live in leggings, this is incredibly important. Overall, the Pegasus does exactly what it was designed to do; support you during your run, ensure your feet are well taken care of, and (my favorite) allow you the option for all day wear. You just truly can’t go wrong!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Air Zoom Pegasus 40 is a good sneaker. I took my pair on a recent cruise and was not disappointed. With all the up and down on the stairs, helping my kiddos get to the various activities offered, my feet were in great shape. Love the cushion support throughout my whole foot. Nice snug fit through the middle of my foot but plenty of space towards my toes to allow for some foot movement when running or walking. These shoes are true to size, so no need to size up or down. Love the breathable mesh material. A must when you are running around. There is good grip on the bottom, even when the ground is wet. Another quality shoe by Nike.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These running shoes are an upgrade in every way. The design is simple and classic, with neutral colors that will match all your gym outfits. The comfort and fit is outstanding: the toe box is roomy, but not so wide your foot slides around; the insole is cushiony, and the breathable upper keeps your feet from sweating on warm days. My favorite feature is the that shoelaces have just enough texture so they grip and don’t come untied every few minutes. I normally have to double-knot my laces when I run, but these ones haven’t come untied yet. If you are looking for a classic running shoe that you won’t want to take off after your workout, this is the one.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I really liked these sneakers! I think the design is fun! For example, the insole and tags have cute smiley faces. These shoes are also comfortable. I wore them for several hours on a day out to the gym and grocery runs. I’m usually a size 7.5 or 8 in women’s shoes. I got these sneakers in a size 7.5, which was a little snug but still comfortable. However, I think I could have ordered up to a size 8 for a roomier fit. I hope that as I break these in, they become more comfortable. The color scheme is white, cream, and black. I usually don’t gravitate to shoes like this, but I’ve really grown to like my sneakers! They can go with lots of different outfits.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These shows really exceeded my expectations. Everything from the materials to the feel was amazing. The design was also great the little winky face with the swoosh is super cute. The shoe is incredibly stable for running and walking, I find a lot if shoes don’t balance this well and this one kicks it out of the park. I have one super small criticism which is unfortunate because the shoes are perfect otherwise. There was a bit of stickiness on one of the tongues, maybe glue I’m not sure which was surprising because the finish on the rest of the shoe was really great. Probably just unlikely that the shoe or materials got handled improperly once during the process.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The fit was true to size with most Nike shoes I own, felt nice on foot. When running, I’m not sure if it was my pair or if others experience it, felt kinda like the zoom unit was getting crowded in the forefoot. The shoe looks great on feet, probably better as a walking and all day on feet comfort. I’ve worn it on a handful of runs and it looks good in sporty and casual with the neutral colorway. I love the zoom unit, but I feel maybe if you’re heavy it feels like the zoom is crowding. Maybe just have a zoom heel unit and at the forefoot? I’m not sure, it could be the midsole. Not 100% sure how this shoe is constructed.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I really love how lightweight this shoe is. I got them in the black and white color way to start but I’ll definitely be purchasing another variation. Nike does it again with the impressive comfort and quality in a running shoe. I typically run 4-5 miles in desert terrain and they have baller traction wether I’m on slick asphalt or in red sand. Sometimes I get back to the office and forget to switch back to my daily wears cause they are so comfy. I’ve had running sneaks in the past that were awesome because of being lightweight but they lacked form and structure to really make me feel supported on longer runs. Go Pegasus!!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Air Zoom Pegasus 40 was super comfy right out of the box! The shoe fits true to size. It has lots of arch support and squishy insoles that felt great. These are great for running/working out or for a day of errands and walking. I feel like I could jump so high in these shoes! They are well designed and stylish - I love the simple white/black/cream color scheme. They seem moderately durable, but still lightweight. Overall, this is a comfortable and stylish shoe that would work well for an athlete or someone who spends a lot of time on their feet. However, be aware that the heel of the shoe does sit a little bit low and they require some breaking in. Great shoe!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These are so supportive and comfortable, but it did require a breaking in process for a few days as the toe box was a bit tight for me. I have a condition where I have to wear a brace that connects to the tongue of all my shoes to help me walk and the fabric on these shoes are incredibly durable unlike many other shoes I own. I’m on my feet 10+ hours a day for work and find myself always leaning towards wearing the Air zoom Pegasus 40 because of how simple looking, light weight and well fitting the shoe is. I’ve already purchased a pair for my wife! I highly recommend this shoe if you’re looking for comfort and support!
