ReactX foam provides ultra-responsive cushioning with 13% more energy return than previous versions, offering a plush and dynamic feel. It also contributes to a lower carbon footprint.
How does the shoe provide a secure fit?
The integrated Flywire technology works with the lacing system to secure and lock in the midfoot, ensuring a stable and confident feel, especially important on uneven trails.

Troubleshooting
Foot feels loose or unstable on trails
Ensure the Flywire lacing system is properly tightened and adjusted. The Flywire is designed to lock in the midfoot for stability. Re-lace if necessary, making sure tension is even.
Feet feel hot or sweaty during runs
Check your socks; opt for breathable, moisture-wicking running socks. Also, ensure the shoe size isn't too small, which can restrict airflow. The engineered mesh upper is designed for breathability, but proper sock choice is key.
Traction seems insufficient on certain trail conditions
The ReactX Pegasus Trail 5 is optimized for light to moderate trails. If you're on extremely muddy, steep, or highly technical terrain, this shoe might not provide the aggressive grip needed. For such conditions, a shoe with deeper lugs might be required. Also, check the outsole for any debris stuck in the lugs.
Noise (squeaking) coming from the shoe
This can sometimes happen with new shoes or after getting wet. Try sprinkling a small amount of talcum powder or cornstarch under the insole to reduce friction. If the noise persists, it might indicate a minor manufacturing variation.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Initial Setup
Lacing: When first putting on your shoes, ensure the Flywire technology is utilized by cinching the laces evenly. This secures the midfoot for a snug, locked-in fit, which is crucial for stability on uneven terrain.
Sock Choice: Pair your shoes with appropriate running socks. Breathable, moisture-wicking socks will enhance the shoe's inherent breathability and prevent discomfort during long runs.
Compatibility
Foot Type: These shoes offer neutral arch support and are designed to accommodate a range of foot shapes, making them suitable for most runners.
User: Designed for adults, specifically marketed for males (refer to product attributes for specific sizing, e.g., UK 9.5).
Terrain: Best for light to moderate trails and road running. Not recommended for extreme mountaineering or highly technical, rugged terrain that requires more aggressive outsoles and ankle support.
Product Care
Cleaning: To maintain the longevity and performance of your ReactX Pegasus Trail 5 shoes, always refer to the product care label inside the shoe for specific cleaning instructions. Generally, it is best to spot clean with a mild soap and a damp cloth or soft brush. Avoid machine washing or harsh detergents, as these can damage the materials and technologies.
Drying: Allow shoes to air dry naturally at room temperature. Avoid direct heat sources like radiators or direct sunlight, as this can warp materials or degrade adhesives.
Storage: Store your shoes in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to preserve their materials and prevent premature wear.
