FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for marathons?

Yes, the Pegasus 42 is designed for daily training and road endurance, making it a capable choice for marathon training.

How does the fit compare to the Pegasus 41?

The Pegasus 42 features an updated silhouette with a more spacious forefoot and increased toe spring.

Can I use these for gym workouts?

While primarily a running shoe, the stable midsole makes them acceptable for light gym work, though they are optimized for forward motion.

How should I clean the upper material?

Use a mild soap and a damp cloth to spot-clean the polyester upper. Avoid harsh chemicals or bleaches.

What is the weight of the shoe?

The Pegasus 42 weighs approximately 243g per shoe.

Is this shoe intended for neutral runners?

Yes, the design is best suited for runners with a neutral gait profile.

Troubleshooting

Feeling of slipping in the heel

Try a 'runner's loop' lacing technique to better secure the heel collar against your ankle.

Foam feels too stiff initially

The ReactX foam may require a short break-in period of 20-30 miles to fully conform to your gait pattern.

Accumulation of debris in outsole grooves

Regularly inspect the outsole and use a soft-bristle brush to remove small stones or debris that may have become lodged.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • High energy return via ReactX foam
  • Lightweight build for reduced fatigue
  • Improved forefoot space for comfort
  • Consistent and reliable durability for road surfaces

Cons

  • Updated fit might require a breaking-in period
  • Not intended for technical trail terrain
  • Limited to road-specific use

Setup, Compatibility & Care

For the best performance, ensure you are wearing the correct size, as the Pegasus 42 has a slightly more generous forefoot compared to previous generations. These trainers are optimized for road surfaces; avoid rough, rocky trails to maintain the integrity of the outsole rubber. To care for your shoes, wipe them down with a damp cloth after muddy runs. Avoid machine washing or machine drying, as excessive heat can degrade the cushioning properties of the ReactX foam. Air dry them in a well-ventilated area away from direct sunlight.
