The Nike Pegasus 28 is a solid and reliable running shoe. The 28 stands for the 28th version of the Pegasus. With so many releases, the Pegasus brings its reliability and comfort back to the marketplace with some upgraded features.
Many features are the same as the Pegasus 27 but with the 28 you get an added feature called the Flywire support. Nike has created Flywire as a lightweight and thin nylon fiber that gives you maximum support with little added weight. In creating the Flywire, Nike has been able to keep the weight of the Pegasus 28 light.
The Nike Pegasus 28 delivers on the Pegasus’ reputation as one of the best running shoes in the industry. The shoe is light and responsive to many different running styles. The Pegasus 28 works well for amateur runners but yet delivers on the quality and durability needed for serious to professional runners.
Key Product Features
1. The Flywire support system gives runners who over-pronate usually need a shoe that provides maximum support, as their foot tends to roll inward putting great stress on the upper foot and ankle. The Flywire support system that gives tremendous support for those runners who tend to over-pronate. Runners that under-pronate, runners that tend to have their foot not roll inward enough, will enjoy the Pegasus 28 because of the segmented crash pad. The crash pad allows for maximum cushioning for those runners who tend to pound the pavement and push off versus those who tend to roll their feet and ankles inward.
2. The Pegasus 28 has a Nike Zoom unit in the heel of the shoe for low-profile cushioning and responsive handling. The heel of any running shoe is so critical. Any bruising or irritation of the heel can cause runners to have to take time off. With the Nike Zoom unit, the runner has great protection on their heel pad for a soft cushioned landing.
3. New inner sleeve that wraps around the total foot area. This also allows the shoe to be put on and taken off very easily.
4. An outside or external heel counter also surrounds the heel and gives the runner a snug, tight fit. In conjunction with the Zoom unit on the inside of the heel, the runner’s heel is greatly protected and supported.
5. The Nike sock-liner molds to the shape of the runner’s foot. This gives the Pegasus 28 the feel of a custom-made shoe and provides good support.
6. Arch support gives the runner’s archway good support and cushion to prevent bruising and tenderness of the arch.
The Pegasus 28 is just the next step up in the long line of Nike running shoes. This shoe should allow any runner of any skill level to run with confidence and reduce the likelihood of injury due to a poor performing shoe.
