30 mile/1 week preliminary thoughts
19 May 2020K

originally posted on store.nike.com

I've intermittently used the Pegasus for about a decade. My last experience with this shoe was the #35. Having had a generally unfavorable year long experience with that shoe (~30 miles/week but too cheap to get rid of it), I was hesitant to re-engage with this model. But, the fact that it was extensively revamped coupled with the 60 day "no questions asked" return policy, made it worth the try. Normally, I would have hesitated to review these absent a half-marathon, but those have been cancelled where I live due to the pandemic.First, the toe box is more spacious and accommodating compared to the 35. Second, cushioning (or, if you prefer, "ride") is substantially more comfortable. Third, unlike the 35, there was no discernable "creasing" of the foam material ... MoreI've intermittently used the Pegasus for about a decade. My last experience with this shoe was the #35.

Finally, they were overall more comfortable...at least at this point.The "not so good" point: the tongue of the 37 has evidently been ported over from the earlier version of the Vomero. Effectively, that eliminates the possibility of a "lock lacing" scheme, because the lace will cross the foot extensor tendons above the reach of the tongue. On the other hand, while I usually use a "lock" lace method, I didn't notice any slippage without it. Second tongue issue is that it creases horizontally around the level of the 3rd lace hole. I'm not sure this confers any future disadvantage. but it might be worth noting. Finally, the tongue is much more "minimalist" compared to the 35 and that discourages tight lacing schemes again due to lace on tendon pressure.Another potential problem with this shoe is grip on wet asphalt. Both with this shoe and the 35, I noticed forefoot slippage on wet pavement. Fortunately, the heel impact was unchanged. When it's really wet around here and there's also moss growing on the streets, I switch to a trail running shoe (different manufacturer) which has grippy and deep cleats on the sole.In summary, this seems like a significant improvement in the venerable Pegasus lineup, at least compared to the 35. Assuming it continues to perform as per this point, I'll keep it.

A superbly constructed and long-wearing shoe

I am a runner with fifty years of experience training in every brand of shoe imaginable. I even got married in silver Nike Pegasus. But never have I had a shoe this durable and long-wearing. I've had them a year now, and am still running 10-milers in them. They are indeed weatherproof as can be. Not completely waterproof, but admirably so. The soles feature the best traction I've ever seen in a running shoe of any kind. The full air sole is cushiony, if a bit thick-feeling at times. But my feet stayed warm all last winter and even during the summer months, I wore these on wet grass and trails. This model is great, but I imagine the new one is just as good. Worth the money...more than any other shoe I've ever purchased. And that's a lot.

Best Peg Yet

I have about 80 miles in the Pegasus 37 and I have to say, I'm extremely impressed. First, the fit is perfect, as I've come to expect from Nike. I'm true to size (9.5), the upper is comfortable and locks down my foot with no hot spots or pressure points, and the forefoot has plenty of room for my toes to splay, without feeling sloppy. The React midsole and updated Air pod in the forefoot are the real highlight, though. It's an incredibly versatile midsole combination that lets me use this shoe from easy-paced, recovery runs to tempos and even some marathon-pace long runs. It's very difficult to find a shoe that has so much range, especially at this price. On top of it all, the durability is on point so far.

I forefoot strike and supinate (so the forefoot outside edge of my shoes typically has the most wear), and the rubber on that part of the Peg 37 has held up extremely well so far. I'm expecting to get at least a few hundred miles out of these. Above all else, the shoe is simply fun to run in. I can't wait to lace up my pegs and hit the road. They just make me happy. Thank you, Nike, for listening to runners' feedback and continuing to develop shoes that make running accessible and fun. I will definitely be putting some serious mileage in the Peg 37s this year. Workhorse with wings indeed! Now, if I could just convince you guys to put some React foam and an Air pod in the next version of the Streak....

Best overall Air zoom Pegasus model
26 May 2021

They are very comfortable and offer more heel support than the 36 which leave you begging for some central foot support in longer and harder surfaces. They are a bit tight on the front so shoot for a size bigger than with the 36 and tighten them shoe laces properly. No do not wear double ankle socks, just ensure you have some non sweat dry Nike socks to go with them. Furthermore, there were no noticeable heat seeping from the bottom of the sole like with the 36 (at least in Houston in the middle of the summer). In fact I use the 36 best in cushioned trails like crushed gravel (Memorial Park, Houston, 3 mile lap) and the 37 in concrete and asphalt trails (Buffalo Bayou trail, 4.2 mile lap, bike and kinder trail). My only regret is not having purchased more of this ... MoreThey are very comfortable and offer more heel support than the 36 which leave you begging for some central foot support in longer and harder surfaces.

My only regret is not having purchased more of this one in the all white/black model which first came out at the beginning of the year. They are impossible to find now and I have searched EXTENSIVELY. The material is all Ultra bright white which is cool bc they practically glow in the dark (that is how white they are) but one has to be careful not to get them dirty; so if u r into showing them off, then any 37 in white will be noticeable. I bought 6 pairs at the beginning of the year and already went through 3 of them bc the sole although very comfortable does wear out fast (that is fine with me as I value comfort over longevity). The remaining 2 of them were “borrowed” by siblings and 1 which was to end up being displayed as a collection item was intercepted by my maligator and confused as a chewing toy. They are very, very comfortable and since I couldn’t find the 37 in all white and black logo (sadly), I ended up purchasing this color style instead.

Great comfortable shoes with few issues
31 May 2021

I am 190lbs so finding shoes that support well can be a challenge. Only handful of reviews are geared towards heavier users so you can not fully go on ratings. The react midsole and the air pods at the forefoot feel supportive throughout the run. Some softer mid soles bottom out overtime especially the forefoot so the you don’t get the bounce back like you are supposed to. But these shoes deliver in that end and also are pretty stable as well. The fit is awesome as well. It feels like the shoes grabs you everywhere the forefoot, mid foot and the ankle without feeling like it is squeezing you. Also the upper is pretty flexible to keep your foot comfortable through your strides.Not the few issues. The known issue of heel slippage. I did read that once you run a few ... MoreI am 190lbs so finding shoes that support well can be a challenge.

Well, my left foot has stopped slipping but right still keeps slipping. I think it may have reduced or it is just wishful thinking. I will do few more sessions and see if it improves any further and will update the review.Second issue may be the breathabilty of the uppers. I do mostly indoors so it is not an issue at all but compare to my other running shoes I have I really don’t feel the air passing through the uppers.From the reviews I have read on the 38, it looks like they may have addressed the issues but will only know when I try them.

Men's Nike Air Zoom Pegasus 37
5 February 2021

5 stars for comfort, 1 star for quality.I've been running in various models of Nike Pegasus for about 10 years but if I could find another shoe from a different manufacturer that felt as comfortable to me, then I would change brands immediately.*Nike's manufacturing quality is really poor - the treads on the soles of these shoes frequently start to peel off, particularly round the outside, which leaves little trailing strips of rubber flailing around and folding under your feet. Irritating at best and dangerous at worst. This happened with my last pair of Pegasus in spite of hardly having been worn and never having been used for running.

Irritating at best and dangerous at worst. This happened with my last pair of Pegasus in spite of hardly having been worn and never having been used for running. (Run & Become, to their credit, couldn't have been more helpful in letting me return them & supplying a new pair). It's happened to me in the past after only a couple of weeks of owning and running in Pegasus. Nike obviously have done the sums and found that it's more economical to cut corners in manufacturing and deal with the few people who can be bothered returning the shoes, rather than improving quality.The other big issue is the shiny laces which inevitably come undone during a run unless they are double or even triple knotted. This astounds me. Obviously I could replace the laces myself, every time I buy a pair, but you'd think that with Nikes years of research into running technology that they'd have worked out that it's better for laces to stay tied and just use a slightly rougher material with higher surface friction. It's not that complicated Nike...*Run & Become have done a brilliant job in trying to find an alternative shoe any time I've been into the shop for new trainers, but unfortunately nothing else feels as comfortable.

Nice light shoe with reasonable cushion. For low mileage runners or interval work.
8 December 2021

Pegasus has been my favorite running shoe for 4 decades. I am an older runner (66). This shoe is not a stability shoe but is nice and light with average cushion. I really like it for running on my cushioned treadmill and for short indoor runs at the YMCA on the indoor track in the winter. I have another shoe that has more cushion and stability for outdoor runs. It has average to below average wear, which means this is not a high mileage shoe. It would also make a good interval shoe. I recommend it if you run a few miles a day, neutral runner, and don't need lots of stability.

The best Pegasus in nearly a decade
7 February 2021

I'm a pretty serious runner. I don't run as much as I did 30 or even 20 years ago, but I still want a shoe that 1) fits well, 2) has great cushioning, and 3) is fairly light.1) The fit on the Pegasus 37 is perfect and the shoe just disappears on my foot (which is the highest praise I can give to any shoe).2) The cushioning is soft, but not so soft and mushy that you can't pick up the pace. Unlike some shoes that are soft in the heel and firm in the forefoot (or vice versa), these are consistently soft throughout. If you hate feeling the road (like a shoe that has lost all of its cushioning) and instead want to feel the shoe, you will love these.3) It isn't a "light" shoe, but it is light enough that you can pick up the pace when you want to.A few other notes: ... MoreI'm a pretty serious runner.

From long runs to speedwork to off-road (grass, dirt, or light trails), it could handle any kind of run, and that is true of the Pegasus 37, too. Furthermore, it can handle any kind of stride, whether you are a heel or midfoot striker. The heel-toe transition very smooth. Lastly, between the React foam and the carbon rubber outsole, this shoe should be extremely durable.The Pegasus was my favorite running shoe for many years, but recent versions had cushioning that was too thin and firm. The Peg 37 is back to its roots as a soft and relatively light "do anything" trainer.

Too tight and small
26 August 2022

The shoe is very comfortable. It feels like walking on a cloud. However, the sneaker is too tight on the top part of my foot. Normally, loosening the laces will fix this problem. But the laces on these sneakers look like they're there for visual reasons. The sneaker is built in a way where the tongue starts higher on your foot, so loosening the laces will only give more space to top part of your feet and not the middle. I am going to wear the sneakers for a few more weeks hoping after I break them in the sneaker won't feel tight. Otherwise, I will be returning them and swapping then for a half size up.

Very satisfied, keep feet toasty
31 December 2021

Been running in the U.S. northeast in Pegs for years. Always liked them but feet got cold in the winter even with wool socks. Figured I'd give the Shields a try and I was not disappointed. Even on very cold and windy days my feet feel toasty... in fact I have to be careful to wear them when it gets too hot out.Like my other non-Shield Peg 37s, the heel was a little loose, but I swapped out the laces for longer ones and used heel lock lacing, which solved that problem perfectly. And like my other 37s they fit a bit tight, but I sorta like that and just wear thin socks (Darn Tough ultralight merino). Plus, after 10-20 miles they break in and loosen up some.Overall, very happy with them.
