Customer Reviews Nike Air Zoom Pegasus 36

I’ve worn the Zoom Pegasus 33, 34, and 35. I usually love these shoes for running and working out. The 36 run about a size to big.

Have yet to wear them for a run, but it seems the back part of the shoe has a high rise and might rub against my ankle. I did walk around the house with them and there was a hint of rubbing. Will try for sure in the next couple of days.

I live abroad and purchased these shoes as my back-up shoes, in anticipation of eventually needing to replace another pair of Nikes. It took me until covid quarantine to get them out of the box and start using them. I really like the fit, color and cushioning in the shoe. However, after putting in about 3 miles/day for 4-5 days/week for 2 months, walking, the left shoe has started to fall apart -- developing two holes in the heel and the seam seems to be separating around the eyelets. It's very strange and not what I expected from Nike, especially because I don't think I'm being particularly hard on these shoes. Perhaps Nike has changed their manufacturing practices and that has resulted in decreased quality because my partner also had a pair of Nike shoes that fell apart in a similar way. I'm super disappointed and am currently looking for another brand of shoes to replace these with.

I’ve bought Nike Air Zoom before so I knew to take a half size larger than normal shoe size. I am disappointed in the quality of the sneaker. Compared to my older ones, this feels cheap. I don’t know if it will even last a year. There was just no comparison between older models and this one. Having worn this model running sneaker for years, I will definitely start looking for a new brand and model. Not worth the price paid.

I have purchased the Pegasus for years. This seems to be a new style and the way the tongue of the shoe works makes it feel very flimsy, not secure. I wish I could return them. Previous versions were much better.

fit and size were fine. Liked the color and design. Unfortunately upper material was not supportive enough for my feet. Very fragile upper material. Would not last very long considering my activities. Had to return.

foot hurt immediately in these shoes ;-(

Its more for supination issue than for someone that wants a neutral shoe

I hate these shoes so much. I have been wearing Nike Pegasus sneakers for running for years and they have always been perfect. These are so different. The pointed heel is so ugly. The insoles wear out and become hard quickly (within 1.5 months for me). Now the arch on the left one digs painfully into my foot at 2 months of wear. I so wish I was still in the 30 day wear and return window. I didn't realize this was a thing until it was too late.

too small in length of shoe by half size.

They were too loose in the heel.

I have been purchasing Nike Zoom Pegasus for over 6 years. This is the first style (36) that I had to return. Too wide in the toe, slips off the heal, very little support. Hopeful Nike resolved these issues with Pegasus 37.

The support of these shoes is great, but the heel area is HUGE. I've been running in Nikes for 10+ years, but somehow they seem to be going downhill instead of improving.

I completely agree with another reviewer who noted their heel pops out the back no matter how tight the laces are. This shoe is very narrow in the toe box and wide at the heel. It is a very odd design, leaving your toes crunched and your heel moving up and down against the back of the shoe. I used to love the older Pegasus versions, and I do have a narrow foot, but this new design does not work at all for me. It may work for you if you have a wide heel and narrow toe box or perhaps, if you are not using them to run in.

This air zoom Pegasus 36 was wide and overall felt cheap, for the young was thinner. So disappointed ! The same shoe only the zoom 33 was made far better quality & fit. In fact I still have a pair. After trying on, I immediately returned.

I love the way these shoes look. Unfortunately, after only a few wears indoors (in the gym), pieces of the rubber soles have started to peel off both shoes. In addition, they are not very comfortable and fit differently than my previous pair (which I loved).

I thought I would like these since they are similar to another pair but they weren’t. Too narrow and sat below my ankle which made it feel like I was going to roll my ankle quickly. Plus it pushed against my ankle joint giving me slight pain.

Unfortunately this was the second pair of these shoes I bought for my daughter and after only 2 days of wearing them, they got a hole in the top. I don’t think shoes this expensive should fall apart so easily. With that being said, Zappos customer support was excellent and accepted the return of the damaged shoes.

It fits too narrow This is a nice shoe but not comfortable at all
