Trail shoes are following the hybrid model that 'gravel' bikes are in. Like a good gravel bike, some road-to-trail shoes merge the gap between a dedicated road bike and a hardtail mountain bike, so I think the term Gravel Shoe is very fitting.
I first fell in love with the Air Pegasus 28 Trail and every year after it got more and more narrow. Glad they have a shoe more like the 28 again.
Love the review! I used this shoe for my 50K a few weeks ago. Got about 35 miles on them leading up to my race. They were perfect for this race. It was a rail trail, so it was mostly flat gravel, packed dirt with very little in the way of technical terrain. Ideal conditions for this shoe. Cheers!
I got a pair for Christmas and I am very happy with them. I had been wearing the winflo 8 and juniper trail shoes. The pegasus has a distinct light feeling that has the perfect amount of spring to them.
I hope this segment grows. This is what I’m looking for. One shoe for everything. I don’t like switching shoes as much
“Gravel Shoe” - brilliant! Although stolen from cycling, I think you’re onto something!
Super great review! Thank you sir!
I just got a pair. They look better in person. They are light and have a distinct springy feeling. I do alot of walking and I am happy to have them.
I like the suble yellow look. Nice review!
I agree with this review but i think it definetly needs the previous version toe cap , because i stumped up a couple times & felt it very much so
Similar as the Reebok Forever Floatride Energy 3 Adventure. In this case Reebok reinforced the upper, the outsole was just fine for trails in the road shoe, great shoe for light trails and door to trail...
I've been stuck with the 3 version because it was literally the last shoe on the shelf that fit my bunion. I'll give them credit, it did help me tremendously from an orthopedic standpoint. But yeah; this is the hottest, dampest, slowest drying line of shoes I've ever worn. If you're wearing wool socks they will both just start absorbing sweat and puddles and the end of a 10miler it starts to feel like you have a kitchen sponge on your foot.
The first pegaus trail (version 1) was just the pegasus with a trailish outsole as well. So they are just doing what they did 3-4 years ago.
I remember that shoe feeling less structured than the road version (more last flex and upper issues), these have that structure the peg has been carrying last few versions. Wish I still had my peg trail v1 to compare!
Got these today from Nike for 84 bucks. Different color but looking forward to try them on a single track at my local state park.
Great review! Will you review the Peg Turbo nature?
I love my Altra Outroads .. On my second pair. Need to review it @TheGingerRunner !
Might try these to replace my worn Salomon Ultra Glides
I tried this shoe on the other day and was pleasantly surprised.
Great review! Sounds positive overall. How was the drainage? I thought that would be a negative from the trail tested video.
Sounds like a perfect Catalina Marathon shoe. I’m in. Used my Everlongs and my Pure Grit v.1 at this race, as well as a pair of normal Pegasus once (mistake- it needs a light trail shoe). This sounds like the ticket. Ordered them through your link: time to truly test where the rubber meets the road.
I got the Pegasus trail 3 and i love the 4 i think they look nice too
Hmm... I wonder how it would do in wet and snow... cuse it might make a good shoe for winter road running. When there's a permanent layer of snow covering the road and you just need a bit more traction but most lugs are too much. .. and if they run warm too... that would also be good for winter.. haha. Very interesting...
Just grabbed a pair for only $85 bucks after Tax. But these are a perfect fit for my running style. Very good video!
REminds me a bit of the Winflow 4, which is the best shoe I ever had!!!
Wanna ask how the traction is compared to trail 3? I do find trail 3 slippery when there is moisture on tile floor, wanna know if there are any improvements in this generation.
so if the heat is an issue for me, which ones would you recommend instead of these?
I'll go for the trail 3s anyday!
Great use case…exactly what I’m after (gravel shoe for fire road running)
Do they still have airbags in them, also It’s pretty snowy where I live and I run xc so I get these for the snow will it work good In the snow
I had been wearing my Peg 39 on the trail, and it had been raining, I thought I went ice skating for a bit 😂😂😂
Is it wider than the terra Kiger 8? That's always been my issue with the Kiger series. Thanks!
Pretty much all my running is on rural gravel roads and rail trails. I think this will hit a real sweet spot for me. I don’t need some of the extra lug depth and overlays that heavier trail shoes need but I want more lug and rubber coverage than your basic road shoe. I hate how gravel starts to stick in through exposed midsoles.
You are absolutely the target demo for this shoe, if you end up snagging a pair, report back!
I really like the idea of a “door to trail” shoe but I’m not quite ready to go for these. Are there any other comparable shoes you could recommend for a do it all type of shoe?
Does this contend with the Hoka Challengers? We have a 18ish mile travers loop in my town that's 50/50 trail and road. The Challengers do well, but I wonder how the two compare?
Considering these for shooting comps. Lot of fast movement on hard dirt surface,
Hey Ginger! Treadwise, do you prefer this to the Pegasus Trail 3? Your Trail 3 was "try" and not buy and this was a "buy" but you said the tread was slippery. I've tried on every brand of trail shoe and Nike just fits me. I'm running on roots and sometimes wet loose trails... Thoughts?
If you had to pick between the terra kiger 8 or the Pegasus 4 which would it be?
The Rehearsal is gold
RIGHT!? So brillint
Great review as always. I’ll skip the Peg 4 Trail. Don’t need a “gravel” shoe in my rotation. I did like the Peg 3, but like you I just find I reach for it less and less. The Xodus Ultra is currently at the top of my trail rotation. PWR Trac outsole is excellent. I don’t know why Nike can’t (or won’t?) figure out their traction issues in their trail offerings. More market share for the Sauconys of the world I guess 🤷🏻♂️ Speaking of which, look forward to the full review of the Trail Tested companion to this shoe, the Endorphin Edge. At that price, really curious what you have to say…
Endorphin Edge review droppin’ Thursday!
can you test the altra olympus 5 next?
Great review as always! What are your thoughts on the stability?
I was really excited to try the Peg Trail 4, hoping to run road and up to moderately technical trails. But more trails than road. Unfortunately, the lack of stability was a problem for me. Too much cushion with too high drop. I felt like I was losing energy just walking on pavement, and felt worried about rolling my ankles on rooty trails. Ended up trying the Peg Trail 3, and they feel way better for some reason. More stable, and way less constricting.
Got these and rubbed my Achilles too much. Idk if the one with the sock cap would be better bc it’s a soft material.
Would these be fine for just dirt trails as a hiker not a runner? Hilly dirt road with minimal rocks. I want some nicer than my timberland hike shoes
Hi do you think it s for overpronaters?
How is it for heavy runners? Weight 90-100 kg. Alternatives for that weight?
Do you recommend pegasus trail 4 or trail 3?
My experience with this shoe has been awesome for dry trails. Technical as well. If you’re mountain running wet conditions they really stink. Slippery on wet rocks. Otherwise a solid shoe
I think it's awesome Nike is tackling a hybrid solution but I tend to prefer specialization :)
Agreed and me too :)
Imagine these Nike Trail shoes with the grip from Inov8...
After 12 years of running, I tried them all, Hoka, Altra, NB etc. No I’m back with Nike Pegasus 39 for Road and this Pegasus Trail and I’m having so much fun running again. Nike always fits me so well. And they are cheap and durable! Great review
Same here! Tried it all and Nike just fits and feels the best.
How do you feel about them 5 months after your comment? Seeing these for €65 in the gold colorway.. seems a steal
Is it harmful for the lugs if we use the Peg 4 Trail for our road run trainings? I wouldn't want to melt the lugs and reduce the lifespan of the shoe if that's a case
Sounds a lot like the Pegasus 36 Trail from a few years ago. Those are great. Still run in them. Do you see a significant difference between those and these new ones? Thanks!
These have more structure than what I remember those feeling like. If you know how the road version runs these days, this is very close to that
Yep, I still order and run in those 36's as much as possible.
I have this shoe and i find i am getting heel blisters from it and pain in my feet on longer runs. Does anyone else have these issues?
I have been wearing these for about two weeks now and they are great for walking. I don't run :) No complaints really
bu I prefer the Lunar Eclipse (shame I cannot get them).
are they true to size?
@@Laura-jq3oi well, they are true to size as far as Nike go with me. My Lunar Eclipse are U.K. 11, Euro 46, so I ordered the same size with these and the fit is very similar, they fit me well with just enough space to spare at the toes
As for true to size, I have so many different sizes with different brands.
Hope this helps
i got it, thanks
I think these will be best for Indian roads
Works great where I live. It's more off road than real trails.
I grabbed a pair and thought I really liked them at first, but now I just use them to mow the yard in - pretty much what happens every time I buy a Nike shoe.
Haha, the ol’ mowin’ shoe - absolutely relating to this 😂
Honestly I do this with every shoe not just Nike ahaha, it’s the last job before their final resting place
Great review I'm definitely tempted to get a pair of them but I totally agree Nike have done some way better colour ways and the pegasus trail 4 is a bit of a let down I hope they release a more colourful pair soon.
The black and grey version has been out for a bit, if that's your preference. Available at several stores.
I really like the colourway in person
I got a pair, but after two runs and some dog walking, i concluded that they're not for me. The combo of too much drop ( my comfort zone is 0-4mm) and the soft foam was causing lateral foot pain. I was kind of bummed, but hoping the zegama will make a good padded nike shoe for me. The kigers are one of my fave shoes ever, i ran my first ultra in a pair of kiger 5s
Not sure why one would need a shoe like this… I guess whatever road shoe that is stable and that doesn’t have exposed eva or plates would do the same job. Actually for door to trail I use older trail shoes (SG4) and they work really well - and it’s a way to extent their life when the grip is not good enough to the mountains but the midsole is still fine.
Any plan to review the Kinvara 13 or is it just too similar to the 12?
I might slice up a review - they just haven’t wowed me yet
@@TheGingerRunner I loved the K9 and 10. But I guess lightweight daily trainer options were more limited then. I have an aversion to plated daily trainers and that seems to be where things are going… or they’re all high stack. The “natural” feeling of the Kinvara is appealing. It would be nice if they put in a bouncier foam or something to update it a bit.
Great review. Might consider for a Spartan race next year.
If you take requests, can you review the NoBull Matryx Trail Runners?
Didn’t love this shoe-returned. Thinner than the former trail Peg’s which I always thought were fine to do road and trail in a pinch.
I still enjoy the Peg Trail 2 and 3 so I’ll skip the 4. The Zegama looks interesting though. 😁✋🏻
Perhaps the new Hybrid Shoe award will go to Asics Novablast 3 TR?!
I've still got a pair of Pegasus 36 Trails that I use for *winter* runs on snowy and sometimes-icy pavement. Am I going to want to get a pair of these or are they going to lull me into a false sense of security before I wipe out on the sidewalk?
Nike trail outsoles in anything that is not dry … 😱
Oh believe me, I've owned the Kigers, but I've actually had pretty good luck with the Peg 36 Trails as a winter road shoe. I'm not entirely sure what most all-season runners wear for winter running, but I thought the new Pegasus Trail might be a better option than the last two models.
@@JamieAsareZiegler luck you. I live in Switzerland and if there is snow or ice I run with o the SG4 GTX or in extreme situations my good old La Sportive Tempesta GTX.
@@cordeiropedro Thanks! I'm hoping to move to Sweden next year, so I want to be winter ready.
Dug into my Achilles after 16 miles . 😭
Hey Nike, LOWER.THAT.DROP. Sticking with my Challengers until then...
On sand and offroad they are too narrow in the middle, hence they feel unstable and higher stacked than they actually are. Previous version had about the same height but wider, flatter contact area with the ground. Oh but maybe I can use them on road and gravel? -I thought... No, on road you can feel the lugs through the shoe plus the wear is probably not worth it. The only place that these were very comfy were on flat gravel... but I never run on that without taking the road there 😓 Pure gravel shoe, sucked for everything else.
I agree… looks booooriiiing :)
I used my Pegasus Trail 3 as my road shoes until they fell apart. Totally get what you are saying. And yes, it this shoe looks ugly.
What shoe would you say are like this but has good traction?
Trail runners with minimal or almost no toe protection cap, they feel more like light trail or road shoe
I just picked these up for $53 at Dicks Sporting Goods
Can someone explain, why no one refers to the laughable durability of outsole from Nike products which wears done completely after 1K Km, meaning 10-12 months usage? You should include as a major criterion the durability of shoe, especially the outsole when we are talking about 120 plus dollars shoes
No more Trail Tested 😔
I used to be a normal person, now I watch shoe reviews 😅😅
Buying this and I'm wondering if this are true to size or run smaller?
I tend go up half a size with Nike.
True to size on these
6:13 u got a boring color. pegasus trail is cool. i defo recommend it.
"It certainly can get the job done with neither"?
Sounds like you got the either/neither mixed up in the beginning
I just got em for 59.99 plus tax
Almost every Nike show you review is a buy. The latest iteration trail shoes (past few years) are horrendous due to the dangerous slippy outsole on them all, when used in damp/wet conditions.This is hardly mentioned. I’m now taking Nike reviews, you post, with a pinch of salt. I know your a bit of a fan not but cmon.
Gravel 👞 shoe? Oh no you didn't...
They are very very uncomfortable
Iirc the peregrine 11 had the same midsole as the ride 14!
I personally stay away from Nike in general, I'm kinda apprehensive about all the controversy about how they treat their female athletes, and their lobbying of policies that I don't agree with.
nice review.. Hes just so immature its annoying
Quality is bad, after 3 Months there are completely done 🫤
