Product Information
Full details
The Nike Air Zoom Pegasus trainers are designed for adult female athletes seeking a blend of long-term durability and high-performance cushioning. These shoes excel in providing a responsive feel for daily training and running sessions, though runners who prefer ultra-minimalist or zero-drop footwear may find the structured heel-to-toe support to be more substantial than they are accustomed to.

FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for marathons?
Yes, the Pegasus series is widely used for long-distance training and racing due to its durable cushioning.
Can I put these in the dryer?
No, high heat from a dryer can permanently damage the foam and adhesive materials used in the shoe.
How do I know if the size is correct?
You should have approximately a thumb's width of space between your longest toe and the front of the shoe.
Are these effective for cross-training?
While excellent for running, they are primarily designed for forward movement; for heavy lateral cross-training, consider a more stable court shoe.
What should I do if the trainers get wet?
Remove the insoles, stuff the shoes with newspaper to absorb moisture, and let them air dry completely away from direct heat.
Troubleshooting
Sensation of slippage at the heel
Try using the 'runner's loop' or 'heel lock' lacing technique to increase security around the ankle.
Foam feels stiff initially
This is normal for high-performance trainers; it typically takes 10 to 20 miles of use for the cushioning to fully break in.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your trainers, follow these care instructions:
- Cleaning: Use a soft-bristled brush or a damp cloth with mild soap to remove dirt. Do not machine wash.
- Drying: Air dry only in a cool, well-ventilated area. Avoid direct heat sources like radiators or direct sunlight, which can compromise the foam integrity.
- Storage: Keep in a dry, room-temperature environment when not in use.
- Fit: Ensure you are wearing appropriate athletic socks for the best fit, as the padding can affect the volume inside the shoe.
