The workhorse with wings never rests on nostalgia. 4 decades into its dynastic run, the Peg’s familiar, personalized fit, and just-for-you feel still puts your needs first, before anything else. The Pegasus 40 is made with the same pop as its predecessor but with better comfort in those sensitive areas of the foot and enhanced breathability. It’s still the shoe you can put your faith in, for all runners and all runs, the one with the smooth support, rugged durability and day-to-day reliability that you desire.

BEHIND THE DESIGN 

When Nike sat down to design the Peg 40, they took an inside-out, approach, literally, starting with an implemented midfoot band for a more secure, but forgiving sensation, like the Peg is giving your arch a welcoming, gentle hug. They wanted to make the inner confines of the shoe comfortable, breathable, and forgiving in the toes, arch and heel, where your feet are most sensitive, with an engineered circular pattern that allows it to conform to your foot. Suede material allows it to provide better fit without irritation, from your 1st run to the very last.

KEY UPDATES:

• IMPROVED COLLAR AND COMFORT 

Increased foam around the collar for better fit and comfort. Improved internal linings and padding throughout for an incredibly smooth fit. 

• LET IT BREATHE 

A highly tuned single layer mesh with familiar and trusted structures and yarns to create an inviting feel and fit. The mesh has been engineered to allow great feel as well as air flow for great breathability in hot conditions.

• SNAP AND POP 

Nike React technology is a lightweight, durable foam that delivers a smooth, responsive ride. Paired with 2 x Zoom Air units, at the forefoot and heel, for an energized feel at toe off. The result is a smooth transition from heel to toe.
