FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for flat feet?
The Pegasus 42 is a neutral trainer, which works for many, but children with specific overpronation issues may require additional arch support or orthotics.
Can I put these in the dryer?
No, heat from a dryer can damage the cushioning foam and distort the shape of the shoe.
How do I determine the correct size for my child?
Measure the child's foot in centimeters or inches and compare it against the Nike size chart, leaving about a thumb's width of room in the toe box.
Is the Pegasus 42 meant for trail running?
These are designed for road running. Using them on loose, rocky, or uneven trails may lead to faster wear and less stability.
How often should these be replaced?
It is generally recommended to replace running shoes every 300 to 500 miles, or sooner if the outsole tread is worn smooth or the cushioning feels collapsed.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight over the instep
Try adjusting the lacing pattern to a 'window' style to relieve pressure across the top of the foot.
Accumulation of dirt in the tread
Use a soft-bristled brush to gently remove debris from the outsole after runs to maintain grip.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the best performance, ensure the trainers are properly laced to secure the midfoot before every run. The Pegasus 42 is best kept clean by wiping the exterior with a damp cloth and mild soap; avoid fully submerging them in water or using a washing machine, as this can degrade the foam and glue structures. Air-dry at room temperature away from direct heat sources to maintain the integrity of the materials.
