Amazing shoes, snug fit.

After owning 2 pairs of Pegasus 4 gore-Tex (men’s) trail running shoes, I decided to upgrade to the Pegasus 5 gore-Tex shoes. Same size and everything but the 5’s are tighter. My feet would start to hurt on the top as the gore-Tex lining seems too snug. I noticed it wasn’t an issue if I’m standing, but only when there’s no pressure on the soles (the soles compressed allowed enough room for my feet. I considered swapping out the inserts but after a while of use the sole compressed to allow enough room for my feet even when sitting. Despite the tight fit, these shoes are very comfortable and better than the Pegasus 4’s. Note that I don’t require wide shoes. Never had this issue until I got the 5’s. Got these in October (8 months ago). They seem very durable so far, the tread doesn’t seem too soft and wear quickly like the 4’s. I plan on buying these shoes again, but next time I’m going to plan a long hike to break them in faster. I’m guessing this only applies to the Pegasus 5’s with gore-Tex. Once broken in, these shoes are very comfortable!
