I'm a person that loves new tech. I typically buy things that are cutting edge. Although it can mean some things aren't quite done yet. I am ecstatic to tell you these technologies were made for eachother. The react and the zoom make for an incredible full footed step. I would compare it to a barefoot step in fresh level grass, because you really feel the stability and movement from the shoe as if you know instinctively where you are. These shoes have excellent stability and reactivity with every step.If you're a runner you will feel how comfortable the shoes are two miles into your run when your feet aren't sore and the react is helping you land each step.

I'm happy the Pegasus 41 are available because they truly are. This is the first time I felt the Pegasus are truly the top shoe, For my whole workout. I can run, lift, and row wearing them. Hours in and I don't feel any fatigue. 30 miles in and I don't feel any wear.The Pegasus are so breathable, my feet stay dry after an hour long run. I don't know how they managed to match such a comfortable sole to a breathable upper but man I'm happy they did. The Pegasus 41 are my new favroite shoe.

I’ve been wearing Pegasus models for several years and it’s always been a great staple running shoe. That said, the 41 is a clear upgrade from previous versions! The foam feels springier and overall these are SO comfortable. These are great for easy runs, long runs, tempo runs, even speed workouts. They feel more cushioned than past versions without feeling heavy at all.I do wish the toe box had a bit more room (though IMO Nike shoes are notoriously narrow in the toe area), but I do feel like there is more space for my toes than past editions, which really adds to the comfort level of these.The white/black/turquoise colorway is gorgeous and I know I’ll be wearing these both for running and more casual wear. The details in the design are really high quality and ... MoreI’ve been wearing Pegasus models for several years and it’s always been a great staple running shoe.

The first thing I noticed about these shoes is the cushioning. The sole is plush and comfortable… this is thanks to the ReactX foam! Despite all the cushioning, they are still decently lightweight which is great. I plan to use them for walking and daily short runs. Another big plus is the mesh upper makes them very breathable! The only potential concerns are they are a little narrow, and there isn’t too much arch support. I will say the toe box is a bit wider which helps, and the arch issue could be corrected easily with insoles. Overall, a great everyday shoe. Good for short to midrange runs on a treadmill or outdoor pavement!

The Nike Air Zoom Pegasus 41 is a winner for the new generation of runners. Straight out of the box these are extremely comfortable with the new reactX midsole. These shoes feel bouncy and energetic with every step. As an average runner and trainer I appreciate the true to size fit and lovely dusty cactus colorway. The Air Zoom unit underneath is a highlight for me; propelling me forward with each stride and reducing fatigue. The knitted upper is soft and flexible while still providing the support needed for any activity. The details are on display with the reflective hits on the outside of the shoe as well as the Pegasus logo on the eyelet. My only con is the shoes are a little snug at first but when running this is a pro, because they feel secure on feet.

I’ve been running for most of my life and have ran in many different Pegasus models. Most recently, I went through four pairs of the 40 in my marathon training last year and this year. I really like the 41 though. I like that the Nike symbol is a little smaller and filled in solidly this time around. The overall look reminds of some of the 90s air maxes (without the airbag of course). The ride is smooth and the fit is what I expect. At this point, the Pegasus is a fastball down the middle. I generally know what I’m getting. It doesn’t offer some of the high end features of the Invincible, but this a great everyday neutral cushion trainer that you can really stack miles on. I’d argue you can get more mileage out of these than Althea Invincible, so if just depends ... MoreI’ve been running for most of my life and have ran in many different Pegasus models.

After not loving the look for a bit, the 41 is great and a breath of fresh air, which makes me happy. Going from the Pegasus in training runs to the Valorfly’s on race day has been a great combination for me and I look forward to many more runs in the Pegasus 41!
I had been running in the Nike Pegasus 39 and then the Nike Pegasus zoom turbo next nature. My draft review will be in comparison to my past experience with these shoes. The Nike Pegasus 41 when you first put it on feels amazing. Personally when I am running I like a tighter fit on the instep of my foot and the Nike Pegasus 41 offers the tightness I like to have in my running shoes. As soon as I walked around in the the pegs I was able to feel the Nike react X right off the bat. It is super lightweight for how it feels. After doing a couple of runs in them the cushion felt even better. As a heel striker I appreciate the cushion and support in the heel make my run feel more comfortable and the way the shoe is shaped gave me a nice heel to toe transition.

As a heel striker I appreciate the cushion and support in the heel make my run feel more comfortable and the way the shoe is shaped gave me a nice heel to toe transition. The react x feels responsive along with great energy return. However, the air zoom unit in the forefoot I did have a bit trouble feeling. I’m not too focused on it because of my past experience with Nike pegasus or Nike shoes with air zoom unit. I tend to feel it after wearing it or breaking the shoe in.The design is great not only does it look very nice and appealing, personally I feel like it has a nice rocker shape to it which allows for a smooth heel to toe transition. Aesthetically speaking it’s one of my favorite designs out of the pegasus line. The fabric feels great! Coming off the Nike Pegasus zoom turbo next nature, I love the feel of the materials. Personally I felt it more breathable and comfortable when running. The thing I like the most about the shoe is how the cushion feels and the look of the shoe. I think the cushion is truly amazing something that most runners will benefit from. Al through the cushion is great it does not come at the cost of weight. When running it feel light. The looks speak for themselves, it is a very clean shoe. One theming I would charge is I noticed that in the heel of the shoe, close to where the midsole and heel meet there is a dip inside the shoe right where the edge of your ankle sits. At first it feels uncomfortable and unstable. I did somewhat get used to it although I still feel that it is there. Not a major problem because when your running that problem kind of fades away when you find your stride, just something I did notice that I would change.
For me, the Nike Pegasus 41 is a departure from the earlier models! The feel of the ReactX in the heel is incredible! Talk about soft and bouncy! When I first put them on, it was that plush and cloud-like feeling I instantly noticed! The next thing was the fit! The heel was a snug and comfortable fit, and as you work up to the toe box, things get a bit roomy! It is not too much, but it does allow me to stretch and spread my toes as I run without feeling confined. As someone who is just getting back into running, these things matter. And they matter to everyone. Departing from that, I would also say the feel of the run in them was great as well! I am typically a heel striker, but for reasons unknown when I ran, it felt comfortable to run on the balls of my feet more! ... MoreFor me, the Nike Pegasus 41 is a departure from the earlier models!

Like the shoe was guiding/aiding me to run in a way that is most beneficial to me. The Zoom Air unit is also great, and responsive! My feet and legs felt fresh from beginning to end of my walks and runs! A con that I do have for these though, is that I do not feel that the toe box is as breathable as I would have liked. I often feel my toes getting warm and toasty. It was not a huge deal, but I may find annoyance in it for longer runs. Overall, it is a solid addition to the Pegasus lineage!
Nike has always had some of the best running shoes I’ve ever owned. The Air Zoom Pegasus 41 did not disappoint as they are becoming one of my favorite running shoes. From the moment I put them on to go on my run to the moment I take them off my feet they feel so comfortable. Also once I’m done with my run I can just leave them on and go do my errands because I like how comfortable they feel. I will say that it did take a few days for the shoe to mold to my feet but once they did I just wanted to keep them on. When I first put them on they felt a bit snug but I gave them a few days and I was able to break them in. The mesh material goes so well with the design of the shoe.

So if you need a new pair of running shoes or just a pair to walk around the Air Zoom Pegasus 41 is the shoe to get! They’re definitely true to size so if you have wide feet I’d highly recommend to get the wide feet option.
The Nike Pegasus 41 is a jack of all trades. You would be hard pressed to find a more versatile runner on the market in this price range.Nike hit it out of the park with the zoom and reactx midsole. With this blend of cushioning, I feel it is the most comfortable Pegasus to date. When running I can definitely feel a significant bounce in my step which allows me to run greater distances. The mesh upper is noticeably more comfortable and breathable than previous iterations, as you can actually feel the air flow through to your feet.All in all the large improvements in styling, shape, and comfort of the Pegasus 41 make this shoe excellent for not only running/walking, but also a great shoe for everyday wear whether for the gym or running errands around town.
The Pegasus Zoom 41 upper is very much cushioned around the lower leg, ankle, and tongue, giving a secure, safe, no slippage and very comfortable fit. It runs true to size, and the arch support didn’t disappoint. Additionally, ths shoe has two Air Zoom units in the forefoot and rearfoot, which improve bounce, reaction, and responsiveness. I admired for its solid and secure feel during runs and for everyday walking making it fit for a variety and different surfaces, such as gravel paths, trail, indoor, and roads. The outsole rubber is long-lasting and covers almost the entire bottom, ensuring long-term traction. The white color is perfect for summer. I’m impressed and obsessed. I recommend this shoe to everyone.
