FAQs
What type of runner is the Air Zoom Pegasus 38 best for?
The Pegasus 38 is a versatile neutral running shoe suitable for daily training, long runs, and even some faster-paced workouts. It's ideal for runners looking for a balanced combination of cushioning and responsiveness.
How does the cushioning compare to other Nike models?
The Pegasus 38 features Zoom Air units in the forefoot and heel, providing a responsive and slightly firmer feel compared to models with maximum cushioning like the Invincible Run. It offers a good balance for those who don't want overly soft shoes.
Is the mesh upper breathable?
Yes, the engineered mesh upper is designed for breathability, helping to keep your feet cool and comfortable during runs.
What is the expected lifespan of the Nike Air Zoom Pegasus 38?
Like most running shoes, the Pegasus 38 is typically expected to last between 300-500 miles (480-800 kilometers), depending on running surface, frequency, and individual running style. Regular inspection for wear on the outsole and midsole is recommended.
Can I wear these shoes for walking or gym workouts?
Yes, the comfort and support make them suitable for walking and general gym activities. However, for specialized gym training that involves heavy lifting or lateral movements, cross-training shoes might be more appropriate.
Does this model come in different widths?
The standard version offers a traditional fit. While specific width options can vary by release and region, Nike does sometimes offer wider versions of popular models like the Pegasus.
What is the primary color of this specific model?
The primary color of this specific model is White, with secondary Metallic Silver accents.
Troubleshooting
Shoe feels too tight
Loosen the laces, especially around the midfoot area, and try re-lacing them. Ensure you have the correct size; consider if a wider fit option is available if consistently experiencing tightness.
Reduced cushioning or responsiveness
The Zoom Air units and foam midsole are designed for durability but can naturally wear down over extensive mileage. Consider replacing the shoes if they have significantly exceeded their recommended lifespan (typically 300-500 miles).
Poor grip on wet surfaces
While the outsole offers good traction, wet surfaces can reduce grip for any shoe. Run with caution, shorten your stride, and ensure the outsole is free from debris.
Discomfort in the arch area
The arch support in the Pegasus 38 is designed for a neutral foot strike. If you experience discomfort, you may have a different foot type (e.g., flat feet or high arches) and might benefit from an insole or a shoe with more specific support.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: The Nike Air Zoom Pegasus 38 comes ready to wear. Ensure the laces are adjusted for a comfortable, secure fit that is neither too tight nor too loose.

Care Instructions:
- Cleaning: Use a soft brush or cloth to remove loose dirt. For tougher stains, use a mild soap and water solution with a damp cloth. Avoid machine washing or submerging the shoes.
