MixedSplit verdict. One tester (8.95) and another tester (8.6) see a classic, durable do-it-all trainer with a great upper and outsole. A third tester (5/10) found it flat, lumpy and uninspiring, with a bruised forefoot on longer runs.

PositiveHebereke reports exceptional durability: at 2,000 km the upper has only small splits and most outsole rubber remains intact. The midsole is tired, but the Air units still cushion, making it a strong value.

PositiveA mid- to forefoot striker uses the Pegasus 39 for half-marathon training and loves how it disappears on the foot.
Runners mostly find the Pegasus 39 a durable, comfortable everyday trainer, with an upper that fits well and an outsole that often passes 400 miles. The ride leans firm, and some find it clunky at slow paces or tiring past 10 km. A few find it narrow.
Of the 79 reviews with a clear verdict, 53% are positive, 27% mixed and 20% negative. The praise mentioned most is durable. The most common complaint is narrow fit.
The complaints reviewers mention most: narrow fit (5 reviews), wears out fast (3 reviews) and heavy (2 reviews). For example: After 3-5 mile morning workouts in the Pegasus 39 they get plantar fasciitis pain in the heel all day; the shoe feels narrow and one foot seems to turn inward, so they've concluded it is bad for them.
