A new year means a new edition of Nike’s amazing Pegasus series, and the Oregonians have spared no effort this year to make what is already being seen as one of the best running shoes of 2021. The Nike Air Zoom Pegasus 37 features a major sole unit redesign and a “total running” philosophy to close the gap between training and competition-level sneakers.
Nike leaves Cushlon behind in the Air Zoom Pegasus 37, favoring a Nike React midsole with great energy return and considerably reduced weight as its main cushioning option. An enlarged Zoom Air unit covers the forefoot to guarantee smoother transitions and a softer stride, while the rubber outsole discards the swoosh brand’s traditional waffle pattern to provide optimized traction areas for increased grip and stability.
