I loved the low profile and look of these shoes, but they are only show to ever give me foot problems. I have gone through 3 pairs of previous Pegasus Trails and was looking for a similar low profile shoes for trail running: hiking and thought this show would be perfect. After wearing them for about 50 miles, they were first shoe I ever wore that caused me to get a stress fracture. After recovering I can run in any shoe, even barefoot, but as soon as I slide these back on the pain returns. I am hoping I just got a bad shoe because I love how these look and wish they preformed better.
10 miles in but absolutely love these shoes. Minimal enough to feel the trail, enough cushion for comfort and the grip of the cleared sole works perfectly in slicker terrain. Love the overall looks and the yellow color definitely gets noticed. I sized up a 1/2 size as I always do in trail runners and have zero complaints about the fit. Looking forward to grabbing another pair to add to the rotation soon.
Kigers have been my favorite shoe for a long time, have had many pairs of them over the years. Fit perfectly and needed no significant changes. This version for whatever reason is designed after a foot that’s not a humans foot. The arch now is on the heel, and the toe indents in the insert don’t line up with my toes. It’s such a drastic difference that I’m confused why this wasn’t put in the description.
Really liking this version of the Terra Kiger. It’s a simple shoe that just works and feels really nimble and fast. I actually really enjoy the feel of the midsole- although it’s a fairly unexciting blend of EVA I think it has a nice ride and reliable feel. Been a go to in my rotation!
Nike ruined my favorite trail shoe. The design and color ways are terrible, this doesn’t look like a trail shoe anymore. The fit isn’t as comfortabler as the perfectly made Kiger 9. i waited a long time for this new release, very disappointed.
I used my new pair for a trip to Italy as I planned to do a lot of walking. They were amazing! I walked a ton in both cities and my feet never hurt once. I am sold 100% on this pair. Getting another color once I’m back home!
I had a pair of these in 2017. They were the Hoka Speedgoat 1 back then. Nike has taken my favorite running shoe and ruined them over the last two generations. They have ruined the Wildhorse the last few generations as well.
I totally love it! I feels amazing on my feet! I bought a size 12, the Summer White ones and they’re “true to size”, and I’m thinking of buying another the Glazer Blue. I recommend this sneakers
Forefoot is very tight even after going a half size up, and also dont like those lines going through the nike sign, what a design smh
Uncomfortable and way overpriced. Do not recommend.
