Of course, among the new running shoes for the 2023 season , there are always models that generate enormous expectation. This is the case of the Nike Pegasus 40, the best-selling running model in history. Expected by many and that meet those expectations of being one of the most versatile daily training shoes on the market, and that, practically, they fit you for almost everything.
On its 40th anniversary, these Nike Pegasus 40 running shoes need no introduction, because it is a model that continues to ensure those high performance so that you are able to achieve all your training goals, and why not even competition. These Nike Pegasus 40 continue to be renewed with some improvements, but also maintaining its main hallmarks to be that versatile and rolling model for daily workouts and all kinds of distances, and also allows you to move at more dynamic rhythms.
Nike Pegasus 40 vs Nike Pegasus 39
Whenever a new release comes out, the same question surge: is it worth buying this new version of the Nike Pegasus 40 vs. the Nike Pegasus 39? At RUNNEA we are clear that if you are a new user of a family like the Pegasus, there is no doubt that your option is the new Nike Pegasus 40, but if you already have one of the latest versions, the Nike Pegasus 38 or Nike Pegasus 39 are still very good options. Unless comfort is one of your preferences, especially in certain strategic points of the model.
The Nike Pegasus 40 offers the same responsive underfoot feel and superior support to remain stable, but with an emphasis on a higher degree of comfort in specific parts of the shoe, such as the metatarsal area and the bridge.
It seems clear that Nike Running' s product developers do not touch what works well, and the midsole of these Nike Pegasus 40 maintain the combination of the efficient, lightweight and comfortable React foam with the double Zoom Air unit -in heel and forefoot-, which has the mission to reinforce the cushioning capacity of the model, but also to add a more dynamic response in each stride. Thus, the Nike Pegasus 40 will feature a performance and design very similar to what we have already seen in the previous version of the Nike Pegasus 39.
Nike Pegasus 40's most important changes
Although the most significant change will be located in its upper. The upper is made with a more resistant technical mesh and with more structure to extend the life of the shoe, but also a more friendly and pleasant fit, of course. Of course, the redesign of this upper will not neglect the feeling that the foot is better enveloped, being breathable, and offering optimal support in every kilometer run. In addition, the heel design provides the necessary stability in the rear area of the model, thus avoiding unnecessary movements during the race.
The first new detail to take into account in these iconic Nike Running Pegasus 40 is centered on the inclusion of this band in the midfoot area. A technological resource that aims to provide safety, but without losing flexibility. At the same time it favors that the shoe adapts to the shape of the bridge regardless of the size. Also noteworthy is the padding around the upper, as well as the complete redesign of the inner lining for better flexibility and ventilation in the most sensitive parts of the foot. Thanks to the circular pattern construction, this model favors a better fit to the foot.
The waffle pattern, which ensures greater traction on asphalt, and the more flexible grooves for greater softness at every toe-off, also remain unchanged.
Nike Pegasus 40 Runner Profile
As always with the Nike Pegasus 40, this model remains true to its target audience:
Neutral runner; intermediate weights up to 75 or 80 kilos, maximum; and who are looking for a model with a perfect combination of cushioning and responsiveness to move at agile, but also calm, paces over all types of distances.
By the way, you should also pay attention because these Nike Pegasus 40 will have a special edition as a tribute to the great Eliud Kipchoge. We already know that the fastest marathon runner on the planet has the Nike Pegasus family as his favorite option for those daily workouts, focused on achieving high performance in his longer runs, at smoother and more controlled paces. Therefore, there will be special colorway, and also a customized inner insole with Kipchoge's motto: "No human is limited."
The outstanding note of these Nike Pegasus 40 is that we are talking about a running shoe that presents a perfect balance whether you step with the heel or the forefoot. It is an ideal model for both long and short sessions, because it allows you to enjoy smooth transitions from heel to toe.
