Product Information

Full details

The Nike Air Pegasus 83 is a retro-inspired low-top shoe designed for adult males seeking a blend of classic aesthetics and modern comfort for everyday wear. Its key benefit lies in its versatile style and cushioned sole, providing comfort with every stride. A potential caveat is that while designed for comfort, it's primarily a lifestyle shoe and not intended for high-performance athletic activities. Key features include a breathable textile upper, supportive suede overlays, a comfortable padded collar, and a durable gum rubber outsole with waffle-patterned lugs for reliable traction.

FAQs

Is the Nike Air Pegasus 83 suitable for running?

While it offers comfort and cushioning, the Air Pegasus 83 is primarily designed as a lifestyle shoe. For dedicated running performance, Nike offers models specifically engineered for athletic training.

How do I clean the suede parts of the shoe?

Use a specialized suede brush to remove dirt. For tougher stains, a suede cleaner and eraser are recommended. Always test cleaning products on an inconspicuous area first.

What is the main benefit of the Nike Air unit?

The Nike Air unit in the midsole is designed to absorb impact and provide responsive cushioning, enhancing comfort during wear.

Can I wear these shoes in wet weather?

The shoe can handle light moisture, but it is not waterproof. Prolonged exposure to heavy rain may damage the suede and textile materials. Consider using a water-repellent spray for added protection.

What does the '83' in the name signify?

The '83' refers to the original year of release for the Nike Air Pegasus line, highlighting its heritage and classic design inspiration.

Are these shoes true to size?

Generally, the Nike Air Pegasus 83 runs true to size for most wearers. However, if you have wider feet, you might consider trying them on or looking for available wider options if offered.

What is the outsole made of?

The outsole is made of durable gum rubber, featuring a heritage waffle lug pattern for reliable traction.

Troubleshooting

Shoe feels too tight or loose

Adjust the lacing system. For a tighter fit, pull laces more firmly. For a looser fit, ease the tension on the laces, especially around the midfoot.

Squeaking noise when walking

This can sometimes happen with new shoes. Try walking on different surfaces. If persistent, check that the insole is properly seated and there's no moisture trapped.

Dirt or stains on the white upper

Use a soft brush or a slightly damp cloth with a mild cleaning solution specifically designed for footwear. For suede areas, use a dedicated suede cleaner and brush.

Traction feels reduced

Clean the gum rubber outsole to remove any embedded dirt or debris from the waffle lugs. Ensure the outsole is dry.

Compatibility:

These shoes are designed for general adult male footwear, compatible with standard sock sizes. They pair well with a wide range of casual clothing styles.

Care:

  • Cleaning the Upper: For the textile and suede portions, use a soft brush to remove loose dirt. For stains, a slightly damp cloth with mild soap can be used sparingly. Avoid soaking the shoe.
  • Suede Care: Use a specialized suede cleaner and brush to maintain the texture and appearance of the suede overlays. Protectant sprays can help repel water and stains.
  • Midsole and Outsole: Clean the foam midsole and rubber outsole with a damp cloth. Ensure no debris is lodged in the outsole tread.
  • Drying: Allow shoes to air dry naturally at room temperature. Avoid direct heat sources, which can damage the materials.
