Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: These shoes are ready to wear straight out of the box. Ensure the lacing system is adjusted to your preference for a secure, comfortable fit. It is recommended to try them on indoors first to confirm the fit before venturing outdoors.
Compatibility: The Nike Pegasus Trail 4 Gore-Tex is designed for trail running. It performs well on a variety of surfaces including dirt paths, gravel, light mud, and even road sections connecting trails. It is not specifically designed for highly technical mountain terrain or extreme winter conditions.
Care:
- Cleaning: After a run, brush off loose dirt and mud. For a deeper clean, use a soft brush or cloth with cold water and mild soap. Avoid harsh detergents or abrasive cleaners.
- Drying: Never machine wash or dry. Stuff the shoes with newspaper or a towel to absorb moisture and allow them to air dry naturally at room temperature, away from direct heat sources like radiators or sunlight.
- Waterproofing Maintenance: While Gore-Tex is durable, avoid excessive exposure to oils or solvents which can degrade the membrane over time. For routine care, simply follow the cleaning instructions.
