Thank you for the video. I am going for the Peg 38 as they are just £49 on Nike as compared to £82 for Peg 39..massive difference in price for the colour I want..
As for me, all my shoes are "outdated," but they are all great models with lots of life left. In other news, I officially registered for the Long Beach Marathon yesterday, woohoo!!!
I was going to skip buying the Pegasus this year but then I tried the FlyEase version ... loved it ! I'm having lots of fun so far with my 39 FlyEase. It is a simple shoe but works very well and the versatility the FlyEase offers is amazing to easily put my feet inside the shoe and easily take them off . I'm now a fan of the FlyEase and hopefully more Nike shoes will offer this tech coming along the normal version on day one.
I haven't tried the FlyEase, but after hearing how much you like the tech, I'm curious! Do they feel any different from the normal Pegasus for running?
@@its_Matt_B_ not difference in weight, normal and FlyEase have the same exactly weight ! Maybe the FlyEase can generate a bit more heat on the top of the foot with that burrito kinda tongue but I had no problem.. Any Pegasus is less hot to run in the summer then the Pegasus 38, super snug at the forefoot and lots of padding everywhere ... but the most breathable Perhaps is still the #36 .
Nice review Matt. I liked the 38s and use them for winter running. I think I’ll pass on the 39s as I’m seeing a lot of reviews suggesting the 38s are better. Save some $ and go with the 38s ! Run well Matt
It’s funny because the specs clearly indicate the 39 is far better. 🤷🏻♂️ I suppose it’s an important reminder about finding what works for us as individuals. 👊🏽
I have both 38 and 39 . The 38 is much better than 39. 39 is much harder-firmer. 39 they are not for recovery days. After many kilometres it seems that they have not air zoom unit in front. Its almost like you run without shoes. The 38 ,in the front,they have much bigger air zoom unit and in better position compared to 39. The 38 are softer and splashier than 39. I had done 1500 kilometres with 38 . After 100 km with 39 i have almost every time pain in the achille and in the gulf.
It’s good to hear I’m not the only one who prefers the 38. I think the Peg 40 is only supposed to be an upper update, so don’t expect too much to change this year!
@@its_Matt_B_ The upper must be updated because it seems very cheap although its not. Nike must put air zoom unit in all length or changes the two air zoom units with a strobel unit in all length of the shoe. But Pegasus 39 is step back for Nike. A lot of people with pain achilles and serious problems in gulf.
Grrr this is exactly what they do! The 40 will be awesome and then the 41 won't be as good :( I can't find anymore 38's so I'm going to have to step up to the 39's. Not looking forward too it
I was a little down on the 39s in the beginning, but they definitely got better as I got used to them (or perhaps I just got used to them🤣). I think they're a good update and well-worth the cost!
Personally hate the 38… so hard to run in… i had to leave them in the box with 136 kilometres and stick with Infinity 2… now the Infinity have 690 kilometres on them…
yea there's no comparison, infinity 2's are def my favorite running shoes and even casual walking shoes, they have loads of cushioning on impact but at the same time they are firm and bouncy enough where it put some pep in my step casually. I've even replaced my ultra boost 20''s with infinity 2's
Great that this comment exists. Thought that I am the only one who dislikes Pegs. It's not like I hate Pegs 38, but I simply don't enjoy running in them. They feel dull and heavy. And they are not really responsive. Lacing is weird. If I use running lock feels like it ruins the geometry of the shoe and it leads to feet being very sore and tired. Another issue is weird and annoying rubbing in the left foot every time after 6 km. Floatride Energy 3 and 4 are so much more fun as daily running shoes. For tempo Puma Deviate Nitro is much better. Don't plan to purchase Pegs anymore. There are so much more better shoes.
39s are on sale today for $100 which is actually cheaper than 38. No clue when this was made because TH-cam fails to put dates, or at least anywhere you can find a date.
@@its_Matt_B_ i've had to start double tying them, i did notice that fixed it, but it feels less comfortable and i never had that issue with my pegasus 37 so just wanted to see if other people are having that issue as it would deter me from getting the pegasus 39 if it was going to have the same issue
@@IanMusa I can’t really say because I never single knot my shoes. IMO, running shoes should always be double knotted. I started doing it while racing because it would ruin a race to stop and re-tie them, and that logic just moved into all my running. 🤷🏻♂️ I wonder if you can move the knot around to make it more comfy? LMK if you figure out a way to do it and make it feel good.
You say that you prefer the 38 and then at the end of the video you say that at the same price you'd be an idiot not to go for the 39. I'm a little bit confused 😅
Yes, that is a little confusing. Sorry. The 39s are technologically better (I guess) than the 38s so if you could get them for the same price as the 38s, I think most would be better off with the 39s. With that said, when I filmed this video I thought the 38s were more comfortable, but I’ve got used to the 39s now and love them.
I always buy the prior year model. I am cheap (or fiscally responsible 😅)
I much prefer fiscally responsible! 🤣
Thank you for the video. I am going for the Peg 38 as they are just £49 on Nike as compared to £82 for Peg 39..massive difference in price for the colour I want..
£49 is a bargain! Good score, Sho! 👊🏽
Correct! I have both the 38s and 39s. Peg 38 has a better ride and feels softer. Peg 39 fits a little better though in my opinion
Glad I’m not the only one to notice the better ride in the 38. 👊🏽
As for me, all my shoes are "outdated," but they are all great models with lots of life left. In other news, I officially registered for the Long Beach Marathon yesterday, woohoo!!!
There not outdated. They’re just not outrageously priced!
Congrats on registering for the LB marathon. It’s official! 👊🏽
size 12 here, i remember peg 38 need 20km the react foam to break in
Yes! The same thing happened with the 39s! 👊🏽

Great review!! I agree the 38 was a great shoe!! Sometimes is always good to keep what is working.
Yep! If it ani't broke.....
@@its_Matt_B_ I PEGASUS 38 size US 10 PEGASUS 39 size US 9.5 ??
@@taiwan8438 It’s possible the 9.5 could work for you, but it’s impossible to say until you actually try it.
Thank you for your honest review. Love it!
Thanks for watching! 👊🏽

Nice! Check back in and LMK how you like them! 👊🏽
Do u think the pegasus will be good for gym work and for longer runs around 10 -20 km a week
100%. The Pegasus is a great all rounder.
Are they good for helping shin splints
Not any more than any new pair of cushioned running shoes.

I just got the 38’s for 92 dollars
Nice snag! What a good deal! 🥳
Size13 here too! My wife busts me up for running on water skis! 😂
Perhaps I’m just used to the size, but 13s don’t strike me as being very big. But I suppose, like everything, it’s a matter of perspective! 👊🏽
@@its_Matt_B_ yes it
Is.. the rest of the house is 9 at best. Except for my son. He’s 13 but a stockier build so it doesn’t stick out as much.
Ok. I have both peg 37 and 38. I will not buy the peg 39 and might buy that 361 spire 5 maybe ? Lol
Well before you make any decisions, I also started testing in the 361° Centauri and it's only $130 and also very good.
39s are on sale today for $100 which is actually cheaper than 38. No clue when this was made because TH-cam fails to put dates, or at least anywhere you can find a date.
Whoa! What a deal! Snap those bad boys up! 🤑
These shoes good for jumping ropes? I combine blithe jump ropes and run/walk. What would you prescribe for jump ropes 🙏🏽
Yes! I think both of these would work well for jump rope. They're well-cushioned and are very resilient!
i've had issues with the pegasus laces as they always come undone, anyone else had this issue ?
This may be a silly question, but do you double tie them?
