Nike Pegasus Trail 5 Reviews

This runner ran a 50K in the Pegasus Trail 5; it fit their high-volume foot well with comfortable foam.

Roughly 200 miles (a guess, not tracked) across long runs, speed sessions, gym use and a race. They like the durable, breathable mesh, the responsive cushioned foam, the secure heel lock, the true-to-size fit and the wide, protective toe box, and found it comfortable moving from road to trail. Grip slips a little on very muddy ground. Best for newer trail runners or anyone mixing road and light trail.

After 160 km of road and light trail, a wide-footed runner finds the Pegasus Trail 5 a great fit with a very comfortable midsole, better grip than earlier Nikes and good durability.

After about 50 km of road-to-trail running, this wide-footed runner has no complaints about the Nike Pegasus Trail 5: comfortable on asphalt, grippy enough on easy trails, though they wish they'd got the GTX for wet ground.

An impressive multi-purpose shoe that fixes previous gripes, with great looks and daily comfort and a new ReactX midsole.

Comfortable, breathable, good value and versatile on mellow terrain. Both testers find it flat at times. Not ready for challenging terrain, the upper lockdown is weak for trails, and it's heavier than needed.

An excellent road-to-trail shoe balancing cushioning and responsiveness. Named best gravel running shoe.

Killer comfort and among the best hybrid road-to-trail shoes, alongside the Craft Xplor Hybrid. A great travel shoe for trails, group runs and dinner.

A great all-rounder and jack of all trades for road-to-trail daily runs and some faster efforts, and maybe the best in the line since the 35 at €140. Not a track shoe.

Reliable, comfortable daily shoe for mild-to-moderate terrain, just as comfortable at 150 miles as on day one. The heel collar was aggressive against her Achilles for the first 50 miles.
