This is by no means a diss! Frankenstein's monster was a beast with superhuman strength, and this winged workhorse is just that a mileage-eating monster with an aesthetic Frankenstein would be jealous of. Instead, the Pegasus 39 is a bit of a Frankenstein shoe, combining successful elements from past models and reconfiguring them in an all-new package. If we are being honest, the new Zoom Pegasus 39 does not completely reinvent the line and does not introduce a host of new, cutting-edge features. The upper features a familiar Flywire support system through the midfoot to help create a consistently secure lockdown that further saves on weight. The updates continue in the shoe's upper design, which delivers a lightweight engineered mesh that comfortably conforms to the foot. What hasn't changed is the Pegasus' incredible durability, as Nike continues to make small upgrades to the shoe's Duralon and BRS 1000 rubber outsole. Nike also continues to tinker with the embedded Zoom Air units in the midsole and has implemented a forefoot and heel double Air unit combo meal that promises to heighten the shoe's energy return and protection. This well-balanced and versatile neutral training shoe was engineered with a full-length React Foam midsole that is soft enough to protect your feet from the roads yet firm enough to remain stable and efficient.ĭespite 33 mm of foam underfoot, the Pegasus 39 is highly flexible thanks to a new flex groove layout, which makes for smooth transitions that roll naturally through the gait cycle. For the past four decades (that's right, four decades), the Nike Zoom Pegasus has been nearly synonymous with Nike Running, and over the years, this beginner-friendly workhouse has grown into an icon.
