FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for road running?

While they offer cushioning, the Pegasus Trail 5 is primarily designed for trail running with an all-terrain outsole. They may not provide the optimal grip or feel for consistent road running compared to road-specific shoes.

How do I clean the reflective details?

The reflective details can be cleaned using a damp cloth with mild soap. Avoid scrubbing vigorously, as this could damage the reflective coating.

What is the primary advantage of the GORE-TEX upper?

The GORE-TEX upper provides durable waterproofness, keeping your feet dry from external moisture like rain and puddles while still allowing some breathability.

How often should I clean my trail running shoes?

It's recommended to clean your shoes after particularly muddy runs or as needed to maintain performance and hygiene. Regular spot cleaning and proper drying are key.

Can I wear these shoes in very cold weather?

The shoes offer protection against wet conditions, which often accompany cold weather. However, they are not insulated winter boots and may not provide sufficient warmth for extreme cold without appropriate socks.

What does 'winterized' mean for these trainers?

'Winterized' indicates that the trainers have been specifically adapted for colder, wetter conditions, featuring elements like a waterproof upper and enhanced traction.

Troubleshooting

Feet feel wet despite GORE-TEX upper

Ensure the laces are snug and the tongue is properly positioned to prevent water ingress. Check for any damage to the GORE-TEX membrane. If persistent, contact customer support.

Traction is poor on slippery surfaces

Clean the outsole thoroughly to remove packed mud or debris. Ensure the shoes are not worn out; the tread depth is crucial for grip. Consider if the surface is beyond the intended capability of the all-terrain outsole.

Shoes feel too warm for current conditions

These shoes are designed for wet-weather protection and may retain more heat. For warmer or dry conditions, consider a less weatherized model. Ensure socks are breathable if heat is a concern.

Difficulty putting on the shoes

Utilize the heel and front tabs to assist in pulling the shoes on. Loosen the laces significantly before attempting to put them on.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Compatibility: These trainers are designed for trail running and are compatible with a wide range of outdoor terrain, including dirt paths, gravel, mud, and light rocky sections. They are best suited for adult female runners.

Care:

  1. Cleaning the GORE-TEX Upper: To maintain waterproofness, gently clean the exterior with a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid harsh detergents or abrasive cleaners.
  2. Drying: Allow the shoes to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not place them near direct heat sources like radiators or in a tumble dryer, as this can damage the materials and waterproof membrane.
  3. Outsole: Remove mud and debris from the outsole by brushing or rinsing with water. Ensure the tread is clear for optimal grip.
  4. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use.
