The main change here is the use of Nike Grind (post-industrial recycled materials) up to 9%. The rubber outsole gives a good grip and seems sturdy. Overall, the cushioning is of moderate density. In terms of underfoot feel, male testers note that the sole is a little softer than before, while female testers report a bit more firmness (the configuration is slightly different between men and women). So it’s a good option for athletes who like good cushioning while staying clear of maximalism. The stack height is still 28 mm thick under the heel and 18 mm under the forefoot (the drop is 10 mm). For a bouncier trainer in the Nike range, we recommend the Nike ZoomX Invincible Run. At the same time, it’s not in the DNA of the Pegasus. Nothing spectacular in terms of responsiveness-this is a point that inevitably comes up every year. Let’s start with the elements that don’t change much: the midsole, with its React foam and Air Zoom unit, continues to offer comfortable and smooth cushioning. This new model keeps what worked on the 37 and course corrects the few things that disappointed runners. The Pegasus 38 carries on down this path with only a few changes to report.
Nike’s star trainer is back: the Air Zoom Pegasus 38! The previous model marked a significant overhaul in the series (with notably the introduction of React foam). “Normally you don’t get all three from shoes.Don’t have time to read the full review? Here’s what you need to know. “The ride is comfortable, responsive, and snappy,” said one tester. The resulting shoe hits a sweet spot that so many trainers strive for. Nike says the air unit is twice as big as previous Pegasus forefoot air units (the previous shoe had a full-length air pocket), and the entire shoe has 2mm more foam than the Pegasus 36. The midsole is all new, with springy React foam instead of Cushlon ST and a forefoot air unit-a pocket of air within the midsole.
And we can report that the update is a great one, subtly improving on an already excellent all-rounder without putting a foot wrong.
When Nike puts out a new Pegasus, the brand’s longest-running trainer, you had better believe a lot of thought went into it-especially now that the company has made 37 versions.
