Fit is fantastic, lacing allows me to form the shoe to my foot and just enough stretch to satisfy swelling from extra miles. I average between 65 and 70 miles per week and I get about 450 miles before I need to consider a new pair, rotating between two pairs of the same model.

Durable and comfortable

Pegasus versus Vomero.
Zorromenameo - Jul 02, 2025
I bounce around between my everyday Pegasus and walking Vomero Extra-Wide shoes; and the Vomero is no longer available. So, I'm hoping that the updated Pegasus version will inherit some of the Vomero traits. So far, the only significant difference noticed is in the Stability and cushioning.
Quality Shoe
toddmal - Jun 22, 2025
A very good, quality shoe. My EXTRA WIDE shoes fit well. I've been wearing Pegasus since the mid-80s. Only "con" is the Crimson swoosh isn't a true crimson, it has a tad of orange in it. It's a red tone though. I thought it would be similar to the Alabama crimson color- a dark tone.

What's New?
- Based on feedback from everyday runners, we made the engineered mesh upper lighter and more breathable for increased comfort.
- For the first time in a Pegasus, the midsole is made from ReactX foam, increasing energy return by 13% and reducing the carbon footprint by at least 43%.
- A wider forefoot and heel provide a stable, springy platform and a responsive ride.
- We increased the stack heights in both the forefoot and heel for added cushioning and protection.
