FAQs
What type of runner is the Pegasus 38 best for?
The Pegasus 38 is best suited for neutral runners looking for a versatile, cushioned shoe for daily training and moderate mileage.
Can I use these shoes for racing?
Yes, they can be used for shorter races or by runners who prefer a more cushioned feel, but they are primarily designed for training rather than high-performance racing.
How do I know if I have the right size?
Ensure there is about a thumb's width of space between your longest toe and the end of the shoe when standing. The fit should be snug in the heel and midfoot, with room in the forefoot.
Is the mesh upper waterproof?
No, the engineered mesh is designed for breathability and is not waterproof. It will allow water to pass through if submerged.
How long do the Zoom Air units last?
The Zoom Air units are durable and designed to last the lifespan of the shoe, typically between 300-500 miles, depending on usage and running surface.
What's the difference between Pegasus 38 and previous models?
The Pegasus 38 features an updated, lighter mesh for improved breathability and a redesigned midsole for a smoother transition. It also offers a bit more room in the toe box compared to some earlier versions.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight
Ensure laces are loosened before putting on the shoes. If the issue persists, consider trying a half-size up or a wider model if available.
Reduced cushioning feel over time
The Zoom Air units and foam are designed for durability. If cushioning feels significantly diminished after extensive use (typically hundreds of miles), it may be time to consider a new pair.
Slipping on wet surfaces
The outsole provides good traction on dry surfaces. For wet conditions, exercise caution as with any running shoe, and consider shoes with specialized wet-weather grip if this is a frequent concern.
