#NIKE AIR ZOOM PEGASUS TURBO SERIES#

The Pegasus Turbo Next Nature weighs 8.6 oz (244 g). Nike says that the new Pegasus Turbo Next Nature is made to help you increase tempo without sacrificing comfort it’s a speed shoe for faster runs. It has a completely different upper, midsole and outsole compared to the first and second generations.

The Pegasus Turbo Next Nature is the latest shoe in the Pegasus Turbo series and it’s made from at least 50 percent recycled materials. The Streakfly is the most similar shoe to the Pegasus Turbo 2 but it suffers from outsole durability issues and it has far less cushioning depth than the Peg Turbo 2 had. Since the Pegasus Turbo 2, Nike hasn’t created a really good plateless, lightweight, tempo trainer.

This happened with 2 different pairs of mine. The sole of the Pegasus Turbo 2 had one big flaw though: the layer of ZoomX and the layer of React foam would separate, starting from the heel. In the past 3 years, the extinct Pegasus Turbo 2 has gained a cult following amongst all types of runners: from casual runners, all the way to sub-elite and elites. It had a super soft, springy ride which felt much more engaging and fun than the regular Pegasus. The Pegasus Turbo 2 kept the same midsole and outsole as version 1 but had a redesigned upper. The original Pegasus Turbo gave me a foot injury after just one run which had me limping for 2 weeks: this was the worst running shoe I’ve ever run in. It had a really weird upper with a low forefoot ceiling that pinned my foot down in an awkward position- my forefoot was hanging over the side of the midsole. I only ever wore the first version once before sending it back. My relationship with the Pegasus Turbo series has been a love-hate one.
