I was looking for an integrated gaiter, and this seems to have ruined the shoe. I've had Nikes with integrated gaiters before (Wildhorse 6), but the implementation in the Pegasus Trail 5 catastrophically compromised the heel. The heel cup is loose, and there's a lot of slop, especially when the shoes are new and stiff; it gets better with use, but not a lot. This is a lifestyle shoe for walking the dog; worthless for running or hiking.

Heel retention is terrible

Nubs
JeffV436921230 - Nov 19, 2025
Most comfortable run on the planet for a trail run however the traction nubs wear out very fast. Would be great if Nike could make the sole of the shoe more durable.
Horrible heel slippage
Lev2c412be5d7654ea8827733f4c2abb71a - Nov 19, 2025
Nice looking comfortable shoes but one crucial design flaw makes them unusable: horrible heel slippage. I own tons of nike shoes (including previous gtx trails), never had this problem before, really hope they'll fix it next year
