Nike - Air Pegasus Trail 3 GTX

Great options! Pegasus Trail for road to trail and back.

I was wearing Pegasus trail 3 goretex but just started wearing these Morrell’s https://preview.redd.it/56l6d6fvjpzf1.jpeg?width=1125&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=2b5b200ef02752853af5b3bb567c73632b39ee4b If anyone is interested in Pegasus trail 3 I have a black/grey pair in size 10 brand new…I’d sell well under retail

I've bought several goretex shoes from Nike (Winflo, infinity run, and a couple pairs of goretex pegasus trail) I like all of them quite a bit. I think that for streets, the soles of the winflo and infinity runs have better wet pavement traction than the pegasus, but for off-pavement, the pegasus has a much better sole. the other thing I noticed is that the added bulk on these shoes, especially in the toe box has caused some brusing on my big toe. The material above the toes is stiffer, I'm guessing it's teh additional layer of goretex. Only happens when walking, haven't experienced the discomfort when running. Maybe I need to work on my walking form. The pegasus handles this a lot better and is a more comfortable overall shoe. It's also got some (very light) built in collar around the ankle to keep out some minimal splashing and gravel. Of these three, I would recommend the pegasus trail shoes, although I like them all.

I’ve got a pair of nike pegasus trail running shoes that i wear for all but the most strenuous of hikes and they’re genius. Obviously multi purpose too. They’re goretex ones so shower/small puddle proof. Can’t recommend something like that enough as your ‘core’ shoe. 

There's no problem with her wearing the same model almost exclusively, especially for a daily trainer like the Pegasus and Peg Trail. As versions of models can change significantly, and often not for the better, she may want to buy several pairs as they go on sale, before they disappear. I previously had five pairs of the Nike Alphafly 1 that I used for racing road marathons and half marathons. The later versions of that shoe didn't have the same magic for me.

altras suck. the tread got destroyed in like 2 months and the only time i've felt more like i can slide off of shit is when i wore xero's 360's with literally flat soles. to boot, the tread started separating from the foam lowers within a month because my form sucked at the time and i was rotating over the outside front of my foot. anyway, the shoe shouldn't have failed when it cost so much. horrible. the nike goretex trail runners were wayyyyyyyyy better than altras. but the zero drop was really comfortable so i bought the xeros after the altras, but those were only good for PERFECT conditions because they lacked tread. for winter, i got the insulated van hiking boots (MTE sk8-hi) that are waterproof for winter and those were sick, but really too heavy to play with during anything but the shittiest of new england weather. shoes never got wet from water, but def got wet from sweat because they're thinsulate lined. for this season, i just got a pair of vivo magna forest esc and its like the best of all of it. the michelin soles are fucking INCREDIBLE, i feel like a mountain goat but still have the xero feel i liked. the only downside is now that i actually have grippy bois is that they actually transport moist soil back into the house. this is normal for good shoes that give traction, so i leave a thick bristle brush by the door and clean em out before i walk inside. long story short, if you think altras are durable, you're probably noodle arming and not committing, and then walking around a grass course. i've heard the OG varients were good, but the pair i bought, the pair my boss bought, and the pair the other dude in my league bought are all dogshit and they're from the last year and a half.

I had the Goretex ones before, but switched to the non-goretex this year. They’re more breathable but IMO aesthetically they look cheaper. The goretex material has a kind of matte finish that looks nicer. But you can’t completely customise the colours of the goretex shoes which sucks because the default colour schemes are a bit meh

The earlier range of Nike Trail shoes were not good. I had a pair of Nike Peg Trail 36s and while light and snappy, were brutal on technical terrain. I've got three different models of Nike's now, and IMO are some of the most underrated trail lines currently out there. \- Peg Trails - Are the best Door-to-Trail shoe out there. Somehow light and snappy enough for road while being rugged enough for trail terrain. \- Wildhorse 8s - When it gets muddy here in the PNW, I switch to these. Chunky lugs, and great grip for wet days on the trail. They're pretty damn heavy, but are very comfortable. \- Zegama 2s: I've heard them compared to the HOKA Mafate's and I tend to agree. All day trail eaters. \*Big caveat being that I have a very narrow foot and tend to like more aggressive trail running shoes.

I have Nike trail runners, I love them-they have support in the toes for when you smash your foot in a root. I cramp badly if I eat as well-so following for the rest. ??

For a trail running shoe the atc rubber outsole on the Nike peg trail is particularly un “luggy“. In fact that is the biggest complaint I hear against it in the store I work.

I’m a rotation between Nike Trail Peg 3/4s, Mount to Coast T1, Salomon S/lab Genesis.

Consider the Nike Pegadus Trail for a good road-to-trail shoe. They've been great for me! And yes, do recommend rotating through pairs if you are running regularly!

I have a a number of miles on the lights trails with a fewer versions of the Pegasus. Worked out well for me.

I wear nike goretex trails. Typically get them for around £45 in the Nike outlets.

When it’s not a frozen tundra, but there’s snow out, I like wearing my gore-Tex Pegasus trails with thick socks. They’re warm and water resistant.

>... false sense of security so you roll/sprain your ankle worse. This was very true for me :) In my country the "old hiking rule" was that you always need high boots for mountains because they would protect your ankles. But it turns out that with high boots I had a false sense of security and was thus less careful when descending and consequently often twisted my ankle. The high shoe maybe helped a bit and prevented a harder sprain but it still hurt. I then switched to trail runners and I can see that I now walk way more carefully and have a way more precise foot placement than before. Consequently I haven't twisted my ankle ever since the switch. However it must be said that not all trail runners are equal in terms of stability and ground feel... La Sportiva Bushido which I have now are awesome but some Nike trail runners I had in the past were very bad and unstable.

I like the Pegasus Trail series.

I've tried Under Armour, Terrex, and Nike trail running shoes. All with Goretex. I find they rip by the end of the reason and lose the water proof factor. Then it's just how long I can stick with them before wanting fully dry feet again.

I use trail running shoes for trail hiking and for golf… I have two pairs of HOKA trail running shoes that I have moved to every day shoes because I also wasn’t able to get them in Gore Tex. I alternate two pairs of Nike Pegasus with Gore Tex and love the water proof and thus will not buy another trail runner that isn’t water PROOF!

I just got the new H1 from Mount to Coast, and it's great so far. The peg trail is another shoe that performs well on roads and light trails.

I like the Peg Trail for soaking up junk miles, but the prospect of doing a 100 in them makes me feel queasy. (I did do a 50 miler in them once, but wouldn't rush to repeat the experience)
