FAQs
Are these shoes waterproof?
The standard Nike React Pegasus Trail 5 uses a breathable mesh upper that is not waterproof; it will get wet in heavy rain or deep puddles.
Can I use these for marathon running?
Yes, many runners use these for long-distance training; however, ensure you have tested them on long runs to confirm the cushioning profile matches your preference.
How do I know if the fit is right?
You should have about a thumb's width of space between your longest toe and the front of the shoe to account for foot swelling during exercise.
Are these suitable for gym workouts?
While excellent for running, the stack height and tread design are not optimized for heavy weightlifting where a flat, stable base is required.
Do I need to break these in?
Most users find the Pegasus series comfortable out of the box, but a few short walks or light runs are recommended before attempting a long-distance effort.
Troubleshooting
Foot slipping inside the shoe during runs
Try the 'runner's loop' or 'lock lacing' technique to secure the heel more firmly against the back of the shoe.
Debris entering the shoe on trails
Consider wearing trail-specific gaiters that attach to the shoe to prevent sand and small rocks from getting in.
Foam feeling hard or unresponsive in cold weather
Allow the shoes to sit in a room-temperature environment before your run, as extreme cold can temporarily stiffen high-performance EVA foams.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
For optimal performance, ensure you select your correct size to prevent slippage during descents. To maintain the life of your trainers, avoid machine washing; instead, wipe down the exterior with a damp cloth and mild soap. If the shoes become soaked during a trail run, remove the insoles and stuff the interior with crumpled newspaper or paper towels to absorb moisture naturally away from direct heat sources, which can warp the foam cushioning. Periodically check the outsole lugs for embedded rocks or debris to ensure maximum surface contact and longevity of the rubber.
