Product Information
Full details
The Nike Air Zoom Pegasus 38 FlyEase is a high-performance training shoe designed for adult runners who value efficiency and consistent cushioning. Its standout feature is the innovative FlyEase entry system, which allows for rapid, hands-free entry and exit, making it ideal for athletes on the go. While the shoe provides excellent responsive support for daily miles, those looking for a traditional lace-up tension feel may find the automated closure system requires a brief adjustment period.

FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for marathons?
Yes, they provide sufficient cushioning for long-distance training, though individual preference for lace adjustment may vary for race day.
Can I replace the FlyEase laces?
No, the FlyEase system is integrated into the shoe's structure and is not designed to be replaced with standard laces.
Is this model water-resistant?
No, the mesh upper is designed for maximum breathability rather than water resistance.
Does the sizing differ from standard Nike shoes?
They generally fit true to size, but the entry system provides a snugger feel than standard models.
Can I use these for cross-training?
While excellent for running, they are optimized for forward motion and may lack the lateral stability required for intense side-to-side gym movements.
How do I know if the FlyEase is secure?
When properly seated, you should feel a consistent, firm wrap around your midfoot without pinching.
Troubleshooting
Difficulty getting foot into the shoe
Ensure the heel area is fully opened before inserting your foot and use a shoehorn if you are still having trouble.
Shoe feels too tight or too loose
Since the FlyEase system is semi-automated, check that the tension wires are not twisted and that the inner tongue is positioned comfortably against your midfoot.
Mechanism feels stiff
The FlyEase closure may require a short 'break-in' period; wear the shoes for short durations to allow the materials to adapt to your foot shape.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your FlyEase system, avoid excessive tugging on the entry mechanism. When putting the shoes on, guide your foot naturally into the heel cup to allow the FlyEase tensioners to lock in place. For cleaning, remove surface dirt with a soft-bristled brush and use a damp cloth with mild detergent on the mesh sections; avoid submerging them in water or using harsh chemicals that could damage the tensioning components. Store your trainers in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent foam degradation. If you use custom orthotics, ensure they fit within the internal volume before removing the factory insoles, as the shoe's entry mechanism is calibrated for a specific fit.
