FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for marathons?
Yes, the Pegasus 42 is built for high mileage, making them a popular choice for long-distance training.
Can I use these for gym workouts?
While designed for road running, their neutral platform provides enough stability for basic strength training and treadmill use.
How do I ensure I have the right size?
You should have about a thumbnail's width of space between your longest toe and the front of the shoe to account for foot swelling during runs.
Are these waterproof?
The standard Pegasus 42 is breathable and not waterproof; they are intended for use in dry or mildly damp conditions.
How often should I replace them?
Generally, running shoes should be replaced every 300 to 500 miles, depending on your running surface and body weight.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel tight across the midfoot
Try adjusting the lacing pattern to a 'window' lacing style to relieve pressure on the top of the foot.
Outer sole shows premature wear
Check your running gait for heavy heel striking or excessive dragging; consider rotating with a shoe that has a different drop or tread pattern.
Foam feels compressed or less responsive
Ensure the shoes have at least 24 hours of rest between runs to allow the foam cells to rebound properly.
Pros and Cons
Pros
- Reliable durability for high-mileage users
- Streamlined, lightweight design

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your Nike Pegasus 42 trainers, it is recommended to rotate them with other pairs to allow the cushioning foam to recover between runs. Compatibility is highest with neutral-gait runners who utilize standard road-running socks. Care is simple: if the shoes become dirty, gently scrub the outsole with a soft brush and warm water. Remove the insoles to air dry separately if the inside becomes damp. Always avoid placing these shoes in a washing machine or dryer, as the heat can damage the bonding agents and midsole foam.
