The upper provides a secure and comfortable fit. The outsole provides very good durability. This included some bigger sized rocks, although this hasn’t had a big effect. There is a white part in the middle of the shoe without the black layer which has some indents after running on gravel. The horizontal lines do well at avoiding pickup of most of the stones. Many of these miles were on a trail made up of fine gravel. Zoom in and take a look at the texture on the outsole after 200+ miles After running 200 miles plus in these shoes the outsole has lasted very well, still retaining some of the texture on the surface of part of the sole. The outsole is an interesting design, featuring two lanes of horizontal lines and geometric design for the mid and inner side of the sole. It doesn’t take long for this to happen and is especially noticeable on the inner of the shoe. A very noticeable point aesthetically though, are the creases in the midsole. This was fixed after rolling out my calves and the soles of my feet. The firmer sole caused some mild pain on the sole of my foot. Having very mild plantar fasciitis meant I noticed a difference when I changed from Under Armour Bandit 3 to the Pegasus 35. I purposely landed with my heel and noticed more cushioning than landing my normal way. Many heel strikers will find this well cushioned, but since being a forefoot striker, I personally found this a bit on the firm side. It is responsive and can handle some speed. The midsole provides a stable and comfortable ride. The creases on the inside of the midsole can be seen Personally, I like the look of the heel counter and love how the sole finishes at the back of the shoe. They are a sleek, fast looking shoe having similarities to the record-breaking Nike Vaporfly 4%. The fact that elite athletes such as Mo Farah and Yomif Kejelcha wear this shoe means it must be of a high standard. The Nike Pegasus 35 has been going since 1983, with the Nike Oregon Project using this, or the turbo, as their daily trainer.
