Nike Pegasus 41 Junior Running Shoes
It's not always the distance you remember after a run but how you felt while running it. With this in mind, Nike have designed the Peg 41 to help make your miles feel soft and springy, allowing you to focus on your pace and technique - not your shoes. A lightweight, breathable upper helps make them comfortable, whether you're sprinting in a 200-metre race or going for a long, casual weekend run.
Engineered Mesh Upper
The upper is made of an engineered mesh that's lightweight and breathable to create an inviting feel and fit. 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. A padded tongue and collar lining helps to provide extra comfort throughout the upper. Completing the upper is a lacing system that works to lock down the midfoot, reduce in-shoe slippage and enhance support so you can enjoy distraction-free strides.
Plush Foam Midsole
Providing you with a soft, lightweight and durable midsole, the shoes utilise a plush foam that delivers you with comfortable durability plus smooth responsiveness. Soft, generous, and durable, the cushioning foam will spare your joints as you strike down onto hard, unforgiving concrete. Embedded within the plush foam platform, and complementing its plush and rebounding nature, is a Zoom Air unit. This low-profile midsole feature combines pressurised air with internal fibres to deliver responsive cushioning that springs back fast, so you can move faster. Finishing the midsole, the heel extension helps optimise your landing space when your foot hits the ground.
Abrasion-Resistant Rubber Outsole
Produced using a waffle-inspired rubber outsole, the Pegasus 41 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. Wave-like flex grooves also feature on the outsole to supply added traction and flexibility underfoot.
