Nike Air Zoom Pegasus 39 Premium Women's Running Shoes

Let the Pegasus 39, a balanced and energized ride for any run, help you ascend to new heights. A supportive sensation helps keep your foot contained, while underfoot cushioning combines with 2 Zoom Air units to add a pop to your step as you transition from heel to toe. Your trusted workhorse with wings is back. Time to fly.

Engineered Mesh Upper

Mesh uppers encase each foot in breathable comfort. Perforations in the fabric increase airflow, creating a better, healthier environment for your feet to thrive in. When temperatures begin to rise the well ventilated upper ensures a constant cooling effect so you can power through any workout with ease. The mesh is designed to stretch with your foot for a comfortable shape and fit as you move throughout the gait cycle. As well as this, a wider forefoot creates more space for your toes, while maintaining the shoe's fit to ensure increased comfort. Midfoot webbing provides a snug fit whilst extra padding in the tongue and collar helps to cushion the top of the foot to reduce irritation and keep your feet comfortable. Not only this but the tongue is separated from the upper to give room for varied feet shape. The Nike Air Zoom Pegasus 39 uses a lacing system that locks down the midfoot to reduce in-shoe slippage so you can enjoy distraction-free strides. Flywire technology integrates with a midfoot band for total support that helps keep your foot in place. Finishing these Nike Pegasus shoes a flashy design, with its iridescent accents and a soundwave-themed graphic in the Swoosh logo that nod to a nostalgic era in music, will help you reset and get in the zone as your favorite anthem powers you to new gains.

React Midsole

A full-length platform of React cushioning resides underfoot to deliver feathery durability plus smooth responsiveness. To produce this startlingly lightweight and springy midsole, crafted from synthetic rubber, Nike listened to the voice of the athlete. Their in-house sports research lab plugged footstrike data into a proprietary algorithm that determined how much cushioning was needed where. They simulated testing on approximately one hundred possible shoe geometries to quickly determine the handful they knew would work best for most runners and then merged the science with an elegant design, intended to feel like a slipper on a mattress. The reactive nature of this clever midsole material means it absorbs impact and then expels it back out for a bounce-like effect. This energy-return technology reduces the use of superfluous muscle power, diminishing fatigue and enhancing performance, keeping you going for longer. Soft, generous and substantial, React will spare your joints as you strike down onto hard, unforgiving concrete and infuse every stride with the kind of zealous power that is often elusive in the running world. Embedded within the generous React platform, and complementing its reactive nature, is an Air Zoom unit in the forefoot. This low-profile midsole feature combines pressurised air with internal fibres to deliver responsive cushioning that springs back fast, so you can move faster. Twice as big as previous versions, the unit delivers more bounce with every step.

Rubber Outsole

Developed using a lightweight rubber outsole, with a waffle-inspired pattern, the Pegasus 38 ensures extraordinary traction in varied conditions. The durable rubber provides a strong grip and works to protect itself from damage, and protect users from losing control and slipping. The rubber is placed on high wear areas such as the forefoot and heel to increase durability and resist the traumas of heel strikes; supplying you with a reliable and long-lasting running buddy. The rubber has been removed in the midfoot to reduce weight, further enhancing the lighter-than-air feel of this shoe. Flex grooves on the sole of the shoe also feature to supply added traction and flexibility underfoot. Nike has also designed the heel to maximise your landing, therefore helping you easily transition from heel to toe.
