Customer Reviews Nike Air Pegasus '83

I read some reviews before purchasing and some said the shoe runs a bit small, so I purchased an 8 when I usually wear 7.5, and it fit perfectly. I love the shoes, received many compliments as well.

I love these! I originally bought them from J.Crew for more and thought I would check Zappos just to see if I could find them. They're super comfortable out of the box - I had them on for almost 10 hours yesterday walking to and from work (more than a half hour each way). I walk a lot and have been trying to find a good shoe for this, especially for the warmer months. These will be great.

I was looking for a casual, retro tennie to wear around the house or to run errands. These are super cute and more comfortable than other low profile retro tennis I've tried. I have a pair of New Balance classic grey low profile tennies from a few years ago and these have so much more cushioning and support IMO, but look way better with shorts or skinny/boyfriend jeans than a crosstrainer; more modern of a look. The pink swoosh and shoelaces add some femininity without being neon like so many of the shoe styles today. Side note, I have plantar fasciitis, joint issues, wide feet, am on my feet most of the day, and I have to wear orthotics. Ordered one size up from usual shoe size and these fit fine with my orthotics.

Love these shoes! I've been wearing Pegasus running shoes for running and and thrilled to have a more stylish, super cushioned casual shoe.

Very cute and comfortable! I purchased size 11 (my usual Nike size) and they fit perfectly. Normally I wear a 10.5 in dress shoes. Love the retro look!

Loved these shoes! I originally saw them at J. Crew, but they only went up to size 10 there - of course Zappos had more sizes! I ordered my normal size 10.5 and while they felt long enough for my feet, the part of the shoe with the laces was too tight. I went up half a size and found the 11s to be perfect. Thank you Zappos for the easy returns!

This is the perfect everyday shoe. It has a retro look and so comfortable. My favorite tennis shoe ever! I even bought the pink one too!

Love them! I wish Zappos carried the other colors. Very cool and very comfy. Totally happy I bought them and they arrived in a blink.

I bought these because of the cute retro style and I love the colors. They do not have the support, cushioning, or quality of the more expensive Nike shoes. I love the Zoom Pegasus for working out but I bought these Air Pegasus for their style alone.

I got these for general every day wear, walking, and light exercise. I'm an 8.5 W, so I sized up to a 9 for width. They are comfortable, although they are taking some time to break in. Lightweight but stiff out of the box. For comparison- these have a lower profile and hit lower on the back of my heal than Saucony Jazz Low Pro sneakers.

These sneaks are really cute. For me, these are strictly "for style" sneaker. I would not run or exercise in them. Not much by way of arch support or cushioning and because of the angle of the sole your toes slope down slightly. They're still comfortable though. Just not the support I would need for impact of running or any strenuous exercise. But I love them a comfy pair of cute shoes for walking around town. I replaced the black laces with white and think they look even cuter.

Love the look and feel of this shoe. Unfortunately, after 6 months, a hole wore through on the top of the shoe where my toe touches. I've been buying Nikes for a long time and they usually last for a couple years before they start to fall apart. Really disappointed with the quality of these.

These kicks are awesome & super comfy. But don't buy them - I want to be the only one wearing them. :P

Love the retro style of these shoes. The hot pink often comes off red, depending on the light. Very comfortable and stylish shoes.

These are nice, comfortable shoes. They look old school and simple. I ordered my regular size and they fit me fine. They are a little snug in the width but are fine. I would probably order a half size up next time.

I ordered half size up, 8.5, and did not need to. Will return and get size 8 because I like the shoe. Great sneakers for everyday casual wear. Zappos is amazing with fast shipping and customer service. Thanks, Zappos.

I bought this shoe because it was a throwback to my first cross country running shoe, purchased in the 80's. I am pleased with the purchase, though a little disappointed that the quality of materials does not live up to my memory of its predecessor. However, it's possible that, like a lost love, my memory has unduly glorified the original so that no replacement will ever compare. LOL

I read other reviews that suggested ordering a half size larger. Don't do it. These run true to size.

This shoe is very stiff. I have very hard to fit feet. I liked the look of the shoe, but prefer something that bends easily. Also, I have a high arch and if the arch does not fit properly, the shoe is very uncomfortable.

They are very cute shoes, the midnight navy is great color combo but they don't have any support and would be meaningless if you did any trails or outdoor sports. If I were in my teens or 20's then I probably wouldn't even notice these things.

I have worn Air Pegasus for years and this is my latest pair. I got the black in size 9. These shoes make my feet look huge! I know my feet are on the larger side, but for some reason this style really accentuates it. Also they seem not as comfortable as my last pair of Air Pegasus. The price is great though so I am trying to decide whether to keep them.

I'm shopping for a shoe I can wear on a two week trip to Italy. I'll still bring a pair of fancier shoes, but looking for a daytime wear. These were pretty comfortable but much to sort in length. I could return them and trip a half size up, but found a pair of Ecco shoes that fits as ordered in the same size.

These shoes were a great purchase for two reasons: first, I wanted shoes for a vacation that involved a lot of walking (city and country trails), didn't scream "sneakers," and could multi-task to save packing space. These, in black, did the trick! They're not dressy by any means but they can be styled with both active and more tailored clothes and look just fine. Second reason: they come in a 10.5! This is a very hard size to find and lately I've been finding that my usual 10 is often uncomfortably snug (curse these 40-something feet). A 10.5 is perfect. I wore them for twelve-plus hours the first time I laced them up, with no rubbing or sore spots. Lightweight and super comfortable right out of the box. Downside: on certain wet surfaces these are wickedly slippery. Keep that in mind. For pavement or out on a walking trail, no problems traction is as good as any other pair of sneakers. But it was a nasty surprise the first time I stepped on a wet, slick surface. Like walking on grease. So, subtract two overall stars for that but otherwise, these are a great purchase.

These reminded me of my old pumas, but they are pretty bulky and not as flexible. In the past I have always worn a 6.5 in Nikes, Pumas, and New Balances, and 6.5 in these worked well. I decided to keep these since they did fit and it was time to get a new pair of shoes. I had already tried PUMA SF77 first, and those ran small and were so stiff. Puma tennis shoes are just not what they use to be.
