My son loves these shoes so much I am getting another pair. The last pair lasted about 10 months with daily wear.

My son wore these the last 4 months, daily, including to school. Not only did he get numberous compliments on them, they are still in fantastic condition, and we are going to order the other color for the new school year. They were washed and still look perfect!

You may as well drop your money plus tax right in the trash because that's where these shoes will go in a couple months. Love the look, but so overpriced and so poorly made. The soles were wearing/peeling off within a month, and this is a boy who is actually not rough on shoes. Such a waste of money and so very disappointing! I would not sell these shoes Zappos, bad for business!

Great sneaker out of the box. My son was super happy. However, they were falling apart after less than 2 months. Did not wear well at all.

My son loved the way these shoes felt and looked! Unfortunately it's been only about a month and the soles are nearly worn off. Very cheaply made. We are in search of another brand.

I am happy with these shoes, but just noticed that Zappos sold them for higher than the suggested retail price on the box. That is a shame.

I love these shoes. I'm on my second pair. They are comfortable right out of the box with no breaking-in period. I run 20-30 miles per week on average. I just completed the New York City marathon in them with no blisters or lost toenails. Plus, they look great. I will never buy different running shoes as long as I can get these! They run a full size small in my opinion - I usually wear a 6½ dress shoe and buy a 7½ in these.

Horrible shoe if you run more than 3 miles 5 times a week! The structure of this shoe's heel caused me to acquire Achilles bursitis. The heel height rubbed in such an awkward place against the bursa of the Achilles, causing it to become inflamed and sore. I would not recommend this shoe!

The most 'comfortable sneak', I have ever owned. I have small, fat, high arched feet with bunions. Just imagine how difficult this combo is to find shoes that are a perfect fit. The Pegasus-28 are that shoe. Oh, so comfortable with no pain or break-in time. I am ecstatic! The shoe runs a little small in my humble opinion, so I ordered a half size larger (7.5). Again, good choice, as there is only a quarter of an inch to top of toe. I loved the purple shoe so much, I ordered an heir, another spare, pair. Thank you Nike for the wide width (C-D). You have given me new found hope. I tossed out the old Adidas immediately. These kickers will see a lot of workouts on mountain hillsides where I live. Thanks also to Zappos for there outstanding service. As usual, you spoil us so!

These are my favorite running shoe. I tried to switch shoes -- Saucony, Asics, etc...but nothing compared to Nike Pegasus. I have a really high arch, so I depend on adequate arch support in my running shoe.

What a wonderful sneaker! Light, comfortable and fashionable! Will be used for walking as well as jogging. After reading other reviews about these being a size smaller I was a little worried but ordered my regular size for my wide feet and it was a perfect fit!

The sole of the shoe is super comfortable, as is the overall feel of the shoe. If it hadn't been for the Flywire midfoot panel digging into my foot at the front edge, I would have kept the shoe. Even loosening the laces didn't help lessen the panel cutting in, it digs in when you flex your foot. Part of the problem is that my feet are very sensitive to sensation. They do seem to be a bit wide in the forefoot.

These shoes are the best. I have wide feet, narrow heels and bad arches and these fit like a dream; the 8.5 Wide is true to size. They support my finicky feet through all the twists and turns of my almost daily Zumba classes. So pleased with these that I ordered another pair! Yay, happy feet!

I have narrow feet with high arches and these shoes feel great! My left foot has been painful for nearly a year with plantar fasciitis; these are the only shoes that do not hurt! I wish I could buy all of the colors!

These shoes are awesome. I have been wearing a version of the Pegasus for running for years. They definitely have less room in the box around the ball of the foot than previous versions, and initially I was worried about where my big toe was in the shoe, but after a few wears, the fit is good. They are flashy flashy flashy and that makes me want to run fast.
