FAQs
Is the Nike Air Zoom Pegasus suitable for marathon training?
Yes, it is designed as a daily trainer capable of handling high-mileage training loads, including marathon preparation.
Can I use these for cross-training or weightlifting?
While intended for running, the stable heel and multi-surface grip make them suitable for light cross-training, though they are not specialized weightlifting shoes.
Are these shoes waterproof?
The upper uses breathable mesh, which is not waterproof. They will handle light rain, but water can penetrate the mesh in heavy downpours.
How often should I replace these shoes?
Most runners replace this model every 300 to 500 miles, depending on gait, surface, and body weight.
Does this model come in different widths?
The standard version is designed for a neutral fit. Check individual retailer listings to see if specific wide-width options are available for your region.
Troubleshooting
Slipping inside the shoe during runs
Try the 'runner's loop' lacing technique to secure the heel more effectively and ensure the gusseted tongue is centered.
Visible dirt accumulation on white mesh
Spot clean immediately after use with a damp cloth and mild detergent to prevent deep staining.
Feeling of excessive pressure on the top of the foot
Loosen the laces across the midfoot section to allow for more volume, or re-lace to skip the eyelets causing the pressure.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your Nike Air Zoom Pegasus, proper care is essential.
Setup:
- Ensure you are wearing the correct athletic socks. The shoe is designed to work with standard mid-weight running socks.
- Tighten the laces using the eyelets to customize the lock-in feel across the midfoot before your first run.
Care:
- Do not machine wash. Use a soft-bristled brush or damp cloth with mild soap to clean the mesh upper.
- Allow the shoes to air dry naturally in a cool, shaded place. Avoid direct heat sources like radiators, as these can warp the foam midsole.
- If the shoes get soaked in the rain, remove the sockliner and stuff them with newspaper to help absorb moisture and maintain their shape.
