Nike has tamed
its classic a little here. Both the design and the running feel are more
reminiscent of the earlier models, i.e. before the time of the fast Vaporfly. I
assume that Nike has deliberately focused on classic elements of the Pegasus
series. Old proven features paired with new innovative materials that are more
durable and lighter.
At the same
time, however, this is my point of criticism. The lack of reactivity, i.e. the
lack of bounce, is at the expense of running fun. Nor does the shoe really go

construction, i.e. without a great rocker geometry that provides good
propulsion. Well, we're talking about a different shoe here, but approaches in
this direction have already been developed with Pegasus offshoots. Maybe there
will be a Pegasus Turbo successor in the future.
I recommend
the Pegasus 39 to runners with a neutral, heel-heavy running style who are
looking for a solid daily trainer. Also for forefoot and midfoot runners who
prefer a very direct and not too soft cushioning. A good choice for the calm and
relaxed runs of any distance, although a few
