The Nike Pegasus is a classic running shoe that first hit the streets way back in 1983. Since then, it’s become one of the most popular and reliable kicks for runners around the world. The upcoming Pegasus 41, dropping in June, is bringing some fresh updates to the iconic sneaker.
For the first time ever, the Pegasus 41 will feature ReactX cushioning technology. This proprietary Nike foam will make up the entire midsole, with added Zoom Air units in the forefoot and heel areas. This combo is designed to give runners a 13% boost in energy return with each stride.
The sole has a new rounded shape with a slight bubble section where the forefoot Zoom Air unit sits. But the real magic happens up top with the upper. While keeping the proven midfoot band system, Nike has introduced a lighter, more breathable engineered mesh for enhanced comfort and ventilation.
But that’s not all! Nike also announced the Pegasus Premium, which is set to be a premium, high-end version of the running shoe launching in 2025. This upgraded model promises even more innovative features and tech to elevate your running experience.
So whether you’re an OG Pegasus fan or a newcomer to the game, the iconic sneaker is leveling up with the Pegasus 41 and its future Premium edition. Get ready to feel the energy return and leave the competition in the dust!
