The new ones are garbage
I purposely searched the depths of Amazon for another set of 36’s after trying out a newer set of the 38’s. The 38’s felt flat and seemed to force me to over prone. Even after some break in I just didn’t like the feel. I went back and tried my old 36’s, and felt better. So then I picked up another set on close out here and they to feel great again.I don’t use the Pegasus on race day (prefer the Zoom Fly’s for that) but for pounding out mileage, I get a good solid 300 miles on a set before they get retired to walking around shoes..

Great for all day wear.
Trying out a few different running shoes. I supinate and have high arches. I thought these would be a good secondary shoe to my primary shoes, the ASICS Nimbus 22. These are comfortable, light, fit well, but the Nimbus 22s feel a bit better in terms of support for me personally.The fit is perfect, but I don’t think I’ll train in these shoes much, if at all.That being said, I encourage folks to try them out if you’re in need for a basic, comfortable, all day shoe. I know a lot of people love these shoes, so I am sure that they work for the vast majority of people out there, just not me.

Pretty good
Overall I like these. At first, I was a bit shocked and dismayed as I'd spent a lot for a brand new pair of Nikes and they didn't arrive in their original box... instead the Amazon box explained that the original box had been damaged...but as I thought more about it I realized that they're trying to cut down on shipping costs meaning a little and light weight packaging as possible while also simultaneously trying to prevent thefts of deliveries like higher dollar name brands like Nike. The shoes look nice and fit well. I really like the sporty modern yet somehow a tad retro style. The offer lots of protection and support yet are thin and breathe well which is great for my feet especially while running or working out. No major complaints or issues to report. I would recommend them!

Better Than Ever
I've had almost every version of the Zoom Vomero since version 6; and this is easily the best. It's a tiny bit less plush, but that is an improvement—less rubbing on the Achilles for instance. Gravel doesn't get trapped in the underside, but it's still quite grippy. It looks sharper than ever and feels wonderful. A shoe that is great for all-day wear but can double as a running shoe and handle trails as well. If I'm packing light for a trip and can only bring one pair of shoes—these are definitely the ones I'm bringing.

Workhorse!
I've run off and on with the Pegasus for 20+ years. In recent years, after back surgery, they're the only shoes I've run in. Nothing else supports longer mileage with this much comfort and support. My only mod is once I open the box, I take them out and relace them. (my feet are wide, so I skip the first row of lacing)Then they're good to go.

This year/model is really good
ok old-man runner here. I do 3 miles, 4 times per week at 8 minute miles. I have used nike air for many years, this model seems to be better than normal. The cushioning is excellent, I can feel a strong mid-toe air-cushion which absorbs a lot of impact. The look is new and refreshing, the material feels durable, laces are great - dont come undone. I keep my shoes for about 500 miles, I am probably 40 miles into this new pair.Don't wait, just go get some.
