Features

The Nike Pegasus Plus 2 takes the familiar Pegasus ride and turns up the bounce. Nike’s lightweight ZoomX foam works with a curved Air Zoom unit in the forefoot to give you a smooth, propulsive feel with about 25% more energy return than the original Pegasus Plus.

And at about 12% lighter than the Pegasus 42, the Pegasus Plus 2 stays nimble when you want to change gears. The fit follows the updated Pegasus shape with a secure midfoot, more room through your forefoot and increased toe spring, giving you the versatility to cruise comfortably or have more fun picking up the pace.

Details:

  • Upper: A minimal, lightweight upper keeps your foot comfortably secure through the midfoot while giving your toes more room up front. Reflective details add visibility in low-light conditions.
  • Midsole: Nike’s ZoomX foam provides lightweight, bouncy cushioning while a curved, non-encapsulated Air Zoom unit in the forefoot loads more directly under your foot for a smooth, propulsive ride and improved energy return.
  • Outsole: A zoned Waffle outsole reduces unnecessary material while strategic flex zones help your foot move smoothly and naturally through your transitions.

Pick Your Perfect Pair

Marked improvement over the first generation but still falls short of the OG Peg Turbo.
