This movement of the eyelet seems to be a trend as Saucony did something similar with their Isofit lacing system.
Nike did move the bottom eyelet which really opens the toe box and prevents rubbing on the midfoot which had been a problem in previous models. The upper remained of a similar material to that of the Pegasus 34. I took this shoe on a long run as well as doing 200s on the track, and it performed very well across the wide spectrum of paces. All this being said, the shoe has a propulsion feel that really seems to help keep you rolling regardless of where your foot lands. Lugs have been shortened on the front of the shoe to provide a more aggressive toe off that helps to keep traction while on the front foot.Īnother benefit of this changed mid and outsole is increased flexibility that adds to the smooth ride. The updated tread pattern on the outsole also helps to provide a better grip. Nike took some of the research from the breaking 2 project and applied it to the standard daily trainer.Ĭombined with the full-length air zoom unit it gives the shoe a much smoother ride. The sole unit is the main update in this model of the Pegasus. These are shoes you can take straight from the box and go into a run without needing to break them in. My first thought when I put the shoe on was that it felt very natural for a 10mm toe drop. The streamlined look is very aesthetically pleasing. When I first took these shoes out of the box it was like looking at something from a Sci-Fi movie.
The Pegasus has always been one the more popular shoes for Nike, and this shoe is no exception. The shoe that seems closest to this would be the Epic React flyknit. I think one of the best aspects of this shoe is its ability to cater to many different types of runners. The Pegasus 35 is an amazing daily trainer for its price.
