The Nike Pegasus Plus is the long-awaited successor to the Nike Pegasus Turbo, which was mysteriously discontinued after just a couple of generations, the last of which came out in 2019. I loved the Pegasus Turbo as a versatile and lightweight daily trainer, and that’s exactly what the Pegasus Plus is too.
However, the competition the Pegasus Plus faces is very different to the Pegasus Turbo, which broke new ground as a training shoe that used the ZoomX foam from Nike’s racers, like the Vaporfly. Now many of the best running shoes for training use materials from carbon plate racing shoes, and while the Nike Pegasus Plus is a great daily trainer, there are others I find more impressive.
