FAQs

Is the Pegasus 42 good for wide feet?

Yes, this model features an updated fit with more room in the forefoot and toe box, making it more accommodating than previous iterations.

What is the heel-to-toe drop?

The shoe features a 10mm heel-to-toe drop.

Can these be used for gym workouts?

While primarily designed for road running, the stable base makes them suitable for general fitness activities, though they are not designed for heavy lifting.

How long should these shoes last?

Generally, running shoes are recommended for replacement every 300-500 miles, depending on your running surface and gait.

What is the difference between this and older Pegasus models?

The Pegasus 42 includes the new ReactX foam, a refined MR-10 2.0 last, and increased toe spring for a smoother transition compared to earlier versions.

Troubleshooting

Sensation of heel slippage

Try the 'runner's loop' lacing technique to secure the ankle collar firmly against the foot.

Forefoot feels too wide

Adjust the laces starting from the bottom eyelets to tighten the fit over the midfoot area.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • High energy return for efficient strides
  • Roomier toe box for enhanced comfort
  • Durable cushioning suitable for daily training
  • Smooth transition geometry

Cons

  • Increased toe spring may feel unusual for some users
  • Specific fit updates require testing against previous versions
  • Not intended for technical trail terrain

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure optimal performance, verify your size using the UK 9 standard (or equivalent fit for the MR-10 2.0 last). When setting up for your first run, ensure the laces are snug but not constricting to take advantage of the updated toe box volume.

Care Instructions:

  • Avoid machine washing, which can degrade the foam integrity.
  • Clean surface dirt with a soft brush or a damp cloth and mild soap.
  • Air dry in a cool, shaded area away from direct heat sources.
  • Allow the foam to recover for 24-48 hours if you run daily.
