(Singing in Pharrell’s voice) I’m Happyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy, Because I’m Happyyyyyyyyyyyyyy! Why I’m happy you say? Over the weekend, Nike unveiled the Nike Air Zoom Pegasus 31. I must say that I’m pretty excited because this shoe just works for me. This is one of the few shoes that I can walk into the store ask for a size 14 and not try them on. This rarely happens as a big guy! Additionally, I ran my first marathon in a pair of Nike Air Zoom Pegasus, so this shoe will always have a special pace in my heart.
The shoe is completely redesigned… According to Nike the iconic shoes was inspired by gold medalist, world champion Mo Farah and they wear tested this shoe over 16,000 miles.
“When designing the Nike Air Zoom Pegasus 31, we had the unique benefit of athlete feedback from 16,000-plus miles of wear testing in the shoe and this helped us focus on fine-tuning and evolving this iconic shoe to make it feel even faster and more responsive,” said Mark Miner, Senior Footwear Designer. “Mo Farah is truly an advocate for the performance of the shoe, and he gave us insights along the way that allowed us to revolutionize the 31”
The Nike Air Zoom Pegasus 31 is supposed to have a faster and more responsive feel. Additionally, the Nike Air Zoom Pegasus 31 now has a 10 mm drop, which supposed to give the shoe more natural ride.
I cannot wait to get my hands on these bad boys and take them for a run… Be on the lookout for a review on the Nike Air Zoom Pegasus 31 in the near future.
