FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for trails?
The Pegasus 42 is primarily designed for road and pavement; it may lack the aggressive traction needed for technical mountain trails.
How do I know if the fit is correct?
There should be about a thumb's width of space between your longest toe and the front of the shoe to allow for foot swelling during exercise.
Can I replace the insoles?
Yes, the stock insoles are removable and can be replaced with custom orthotics if preferred.
How often should I replace these trainers?
Generally, running shoes should be replaced every 300 to 500 miles, depending on the surface and your running intensity.
Are these waterproof?
No, these are standard trainers and do not feature waterproof membranes; they may absorb moisture in heavy rain.
Troubleshooting
Feeling discomfort after first run
Ensure the laces are not over-tightened at the midfoot and check that you have the correct size; consider using an aftermarket insole if you need extra arch support.
Excessive dirt accumulation
Gently scrub the outsole with a soft brush and warm water to maintain traction and prevent debris from damaging the rubber.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Air Zoom Pegasus 42 trainers last, follow these maintenance guidelines:
- Breaking In: Wear them for short walks or light runs for the first few sessions to allow the materials to adapt to your foot shape.
- Cleaning: Use a soft brush or a cloth with mild detergent to remove dirt from the upper. Avoid soaking the shoes or using a washing machine, as high heat and heavy agitation can degrade the cushioning.
- Drying: Air dry in a well-ventilated area away from direct heat sources like radiators or sunlight, which can cause the materials to warp or crack.
- Surface Compatibility: Best suited for asphalt, concrete, and synthetic tracks.
