Nike Pegasus Trail 5

There's definitely things this can do and things that you should avoid doing. Let's start with things to avoid.. treadmills. This is not designed to be worn when using on a treadmill. The shoe is marketed towards trail running not treadmills so don't assume lol. Other than that I was pleasantly surprised at how comfortable, grippy, reactive and lightweight these shoes were. I love hiking, but most shoes aren't very comfortable or my knees hurt after the hike. No more knee pain and they are very comfortable. The thick sole really absorbs the shock well and the shoes are comfortable and the insoles are reactive to whatever it is you are doing. The shoes are breathable but they do get a little hot and sweaty, but I would gladly take that trade off for no knee pain. The grip is surprisingly good when going down hill even on some of the parts of the trail that are usually slippery. Your feet do a good job staying in place and secured to the shoe and the toe box is soft, unlike the acg exploraid airs which were so hard that it gave me blisters. I would absolutely recommend this shoe for hiking or trail running. I wear between an 8 and 8.5 and 8.5 was the winner.

I have been searching a shoe for my upcoming ultra and after trying 10 or so different models and brands, this is it! I ordered 1/2 size larger as recommended and the fit is perfect. The upper is comfortable (+1 for no unnecessary toe cap) and the midsole feels so good ! I hope they don't change this shoe too much with the next update. Absolutely love it.

Nice comfortable trainer. Light and easy to put on and taking off.
