Customer Reviews Nike Air Zoom Pegasus 35

Difficult to put on. Takes too much effort to get foot into shoe. I would not buy these shoes because of this issue.

Absolutely fantastic shoe from Nike -- easily one of their best efforts in recent years. Being a long-time Brooks fan -- and having recently purchased the Levitate -- I thought the Pegasus might not measure up. Boy, was I wrong. This shoe nails the sweet spot, providing 'just right' cushioning and a modicum of support in a supremely comfortable, lightweight package. Highly recommended!

I have taken the shoe out for a few runs. Overall, it gets the job done with the right about of flex, support, cushion. I feel the materials and build are high quality that will last. The Good: Support, Colors/Style, quality materials, good fit for my neutral foot, and reliability of Pegasus (there is a reason this model of shoe been around for so long) The Bad: I am not a huge fan of the "elf point" at the back of the shoe. The tongue for me is too long/high. While it does not bother me when running, it just sits higher on my ankle than what I am used to. Overall, I am happy with the purchase and look forward to putting in many miles in my Pegasus 35s.

These shoes run a bit on the narrow side. If you are looking for a standard width feel with these shoes I recommend buying a wide.

This is the most comfortable running shoe. If you liked the previous Pegasus models you will also like this one.

I’m a regular runner and have been a dedicated user of Pegasus shoes for many years. I don't understand why Nike has to change the shoe every year. The changes in the Pegasus 35 compared to the 34 are significant. The heal cup is notably shallower. The sole is much thicker. There are only 5 lace hole pairs instead of 6. The back of the heal looks like an elf’s ear. I don't see any of these changes as improvements. And the new design/color scheme is much less attractive than the very sharp 35’s. Why even call this a Pegasus? It’s a new shoe. I haven’t run in these new shoes yet, so i don't know how good or bad they may be. But I have to ask, what was Nike trying to improve? I would much rather be able to buy more of the 35 model shoes.

Seems a little small, had to go up a half-size to get a comfortable fit. Overall, very comfortable. I would buy them again.

The Nike Air Zoom Pegasus 35 is a shoe that is perfectly suited for a middle distance runner, the shoe’s cushioning allows for a comfortable ride, without having too much cushion and weight. The ideal consumer for this shoe would be someone who is a runner who typically runs twenty five to thirty five miles a week. The shoe rides very comfortably, and the construction of the sole of the shoe encourages a mid-foot strike when running, which is desired. Through running the shoe has shown no sign of wear through running on asphalt and concrete. Looking at the fit of the shoe, it is a fairly narrow shoe, with a small toe box, some may find this uncomfortable, but haven’t personally had any issues with the comfort of the shoe. there was little to no discomfort when breaking in the shoe. The size of the shoe was exactly what I thought it would be, it fits like all other Nike shoes, so there was little unexpected when the shoes arrived in the signature orange Nike box. The overall design of the shoe is that of past Pegasus models, except this shoe has a unique pointed back end of the sole, which provides a unique and interesting design feature that makes the shoe stand out from the rest. The fabric of the upper half of the shoe is very breathable and has reflective stickers on the back and reflective Nike logos on the sides, which is helpful for running in the dark. The shoe is quite stylish and could also be worn on a night out The traction of this shoe is top of the line, after a few hikes trail runs I felt very comfortable with my traction. I have also tested the shoes on the snow and have found that they are better than any other shoe I have had before, the tread is very aggressive and tacky. The only issue I have had with the traction is that the tread can hold a good amount of snow and slush, making tracking snow and salt indoors very easy. Overall these are great running shoes meant for a person who demands a lot out of their running shoe. It’s one of the best running shoes on the market right now.

Great running shoe

Always like Pegasus style.

Beyond comfortable. Great fit and definitely true to size. Love them!

Picked these up after my last pair of Puma's were causing me a lot of foot pain. I noticed they are a little tight when I first put them on, but that seems to fade away quickly. I love the color and frequently get compliments on them. They feel MUCH lighter than any of my other athletic shoes.

I found the heel cup to be too shallow leading to slippage. Too bad because otherwise it’s a nice shoe

These are my favorite running shoes overall this year. This is the second pair I bought, the first being from footlocker at full price, not in the color I wanted(not that these are exactly but....40$ cheaper than list !) and as soon as I got on the treadmill I instantly knew it was worth it. These shoes are worth buying even if you don't get the colors you like. They are that good. I dropped a full six minutes off my five k time to finally get into competition range times. So buy the cheapest color combo on here if you are a runner, because you don't care about anything other than comfort and speed and these shoes have that in every combo

True to size

They're a very comfortable nice walking shoe, but at least for me as soon as they touched water they got very slick. I'm normally very sure footed and had two falls in the ice/snow while wearing them (first time I've fallen in years). On almost any wet smooth surface they feel very slick. I wore them for quite a bit, but recently decided to get something else for fear of falling. If you live where it doesn't rain that much, then these are great shoes.

Really like these. Felt I'd never find a shoe like my prior few pairs of Tailwinds and Pegasus generations. These shoes took a little while to break in for me but are holding up well. About 12 miles on them today and additional 50 through the week and they still look, feel and ride well. The cushion sole at the base tends to crinkle/wrinkle with time and I'm not too fond of that experience. The color combination is a little much for me but I got these on sale and it was an excellent buy through zappos. Would get them again, but a different color combination probably.

Great fit, very nice looking shoe.

Nike running shoes usually run small and narrow. I take 15 D in dress shoes, 14 in boots, basketball shoes, and sandals. Order a size larger in larger sizes when half sizes are unavailable. A 15 in this shoe fit me perfectly. If you have low arches this shoe is ok for shorter runs but maybe not for longer.

Amazing shoe. So amazing I bought two of them. They are listed as a trail runner but I wear them to work. They are comfortable enough to stand in them all day. Highly recommend!

They are fantastic I own these in 3 colors

Ordered a 10 but it was too small, needed a half size up. Definitely a tighter more narrow fit on the sides that other nikes. They are comfortable and have good cushioning. The heel does feel like it slips out as I walk but I got these for running so I don’t even notice while running.

Great look and comfortable

These are hands down the most comfortable pair of nikes I’ve owned. Arrived in one day free shipping and fit perfectly. Might say they are a bit more snug on my feet from each side, but overall fit was exact. Love them already. I will say that the “salmon” color is much more pink in person compared to the online images.

I was looking for a sneaker that was both comfortable and stylish. The Nike Air Zoom Pegasus 35 pretty much met my expectations. It provides a lot of support, including being able to adsorb the weigh very well. It is also nice looking. I would have given 5 stars for 'style' if the heel would have been more rounded instead of pointed.
