Fordy for the win!
Keep the heel the way it is, but make the forefoot 2-3mm thicker. That's where I need cushioning. The 10mm drop and the relatively thin forefoot make it a no-go for me.
It is mate
What does the high drop effect?
I’ll be honest, I think Nike’s stack height measurements are a bit liberal. The Adidas SL2 has similar stack heights on paper, but by looks and feel, the Pegasus 41 doesn’t have 27mm in the forefoot. Even the Pegasus 39/40 was claiming a 24mm (correct me on that), but at home I used a caliper measurement in my U.S. 10.5, and measured 21mm, which is a lower stack than the Novablast 2. I went to the store to look at the new Pegasus, and brought my Saucony Triumph 20’s with me because it also “measures” 27/37, just like the Pegasus 41, and there is no way the Pegasus 41 is 27/37. The Triumph 20 looks like an absolute MONSTER next to it. Also, the underfoot feel, I went with the SL2 over the Pegasus. Lighter, more versatile, more breathable, also cheaper.
Agree
Compare it with the Vomero 17 ! I wonder if the new Pegasus 41 is back to be like a cheaper version of the Vomero. And no shame to be cheaper, it could be more breathable, less weight (maybe?) etc.
What I loved last year about my Pegasus 40was the best of the year in true to size lockdown. Was amazing and that alone made me like it much more them a Velocity Nitro 2, Gel-Cumulus 25 or the horrible lockdown of the Adizero SL.
I have faith that the new Pegasus 41 will still keep its crow ,even if it is not the fastest or the lightest daily trainer available.
Prefer the vomero
I did my first run in the 41s yesterday, slow ish paced 6k, felt really good, felt firm initially, but also felt faster overall
Love to see a comparison v the Puma velocity 3.
Thanks.
Coming soon!
At the end of the day the Peg 41 is a solid update. It’s puts the shoe back into the daily trainer conversation. Same with the new SL2 from Adidas. There are some really solid shoes out there now and it’s a good time to be a runner. Shoe companies are realizing it’s innovate or die and most are bringing out some banging shoes. Especially now that there are hundreds of shoe reviewers on RUclips and a dud will kill a brand in a heartbeat.
Keep on telling it like it is Fordy!!
Thanks mate
I just ordered mine today! I can't wait! I have 2 pairs of the Pegasus 40s and I'm very anxious to take these out on the road.
I love my Pegasus shoes for its style and comfort. Just bought Pegasus 41 after missing Peg 40. I liked peg 38 and 39. Peg 35 and 37 were ok.
SL2 and Neo Vista 🔥🔥
On it
I have the rebel 4 and also puma velocity nitro 3 that I took out the first time today and they feel amazing
Great shoes
I personally wouldn't even entertain running in the Peg 😂 I have the Peg 39 and I only use them for gym stuff like circuit training. In my opinion there are far better daily trainer offerings on the market. I'm a lover of the Nike Alphafly and Vapourfly so not just bashing Nile. I think it's just because I've never really enjoyed that React foam. Looking forward to your Neo Vista review, mine are due to arrive in the coming days 😁
First run next week
Sounds like a comfy school run/grocery shopping choice,like the look of it tbh,a stylish sneaker👊👍
Defo looks good
Good review Fordy, I feel like Nike has been missing for years. I've had the Pegasus 40 and zoom fly 5, and neither of them felt responsive at all. Aside from their alphafly and vaporfly, they seem to be losing our to companies like Saucony and even Hoka.
They have been yeah .. this is a step in the right direction
I might wait for the turbo. I really like the pegasus trail 5, i’m more a road runner but picked it up the trail 5 last week for some easier trail runs now in the summer 😊 i’m more of a heel striker. It worked great on my 2 hour + long run on the trail today. And bought it with 25% discount so worth for me 😊
Great review video like always 🫡
Thank you
Get to feeling better Fordy, great review as always.
Tks
I feel like its niche is that its a normal daily trainer. Weirdly...I love how "boring" it is. Makes me do the work, and its comfortable. Thats it, and thats why its my favorute DT.
Feel like this is a different style of review, and I like it. Keep up the good work.
Thanks, will do!
Cumulus 26 & Ride 17 would be a reasonable comparison of legacy daily trainers that have been modernized.
Or compare with Novablast and one of the modern speed oriented daily trainers, Rebel/Mach 6/sl2/
Will do
NB4/Rebel4/Mach6/SL2/NoosaTri16 are the vanguard, versatile/speed lightweight daily trainers. That's the way to go
I loved the Pegasus 34 was a great shoe , very comfortable. Newer models seem narrow and I don’t have wide feet 👣
Hi Fordy, Pegasus 40 were a very narrow shoe - it is the same with Pegasus 41?
Feels wider
good to see you back Chris!
Thank you
You never over complicate views and say as it is rather than sitting on the fence. You also reply. Keep up the good work 👌
Thanks mate
Team Puma made the Velocity Nitro which became the spiritual successor to the Peg line for me and still is. At this point I'd wear the Pag casually but not as my daily
Yeah good shoe
Novablast 4 is a better shoe for the daily and i have to say my superblasts are amazing on the long run. Asics are killing it. Didn't like the previous Novablast. Loved the invincible 1 and 2,but Novablast 4 is quality.
Over 300g?! Bloody hell.
I’ve still got a pair of Peg 38s I use for knocking around and chasing the kids, but I don’t think I’d consider new Pegs for my proper running.
React X is awful unless my pair of Infinity Run 4 are a duff pair 😅 I can do about 5k easy and my ankles and shins start to hurt, doesn't happen in previous versions of React in other Nike trainers. It's just dead underfoot for me.
The last really good Pegasus models were the 35 and 35 turbo IMO. That was your 2 shoe rotation right there 😎
The Trail 4 is a good shoe and better than the 39 from my experiences.
You're absolutely right that other brands have surpassed the Pegasus in the daily trainer market which is a real shame as I started out in the 32 and ran my 2nd marathon in the 34 with zero issues
Yep others have pushed on for example rebel 4 with peba blend
Gym is a step up from my 39s life. Their on gardening duty
🤣🤣🤣
Interesting the disclaimer at the start...why now? Something happen? Also noticed you are making more specific references to "my pace" - such as when you mention your easy pace - which I think is great. This has always been a bug bear of mine with shoe reviewers - they say "when you hit your race pace, they come alive"...but my race pace could be very different from someone elses....but does the shoe still act the same at both of those "race paces"? Of course not. So I like it when shoe reviewers qualify their assessment by putting it in the context of their ability. Nice work.
I’ve seen a lot of feedback in comments on other people’s videos about not believing reviews coz of mileage and not relatable as no idea of pace or my size etc etc. so my aim is to be as transparent as I can so I’ve added that so you guys know that the mileage is true (Strava public) you see my efforts, my races, that the shoes most likely sent in and as much info as possible.
I think it's a workhorse shoe, sometimes you forget it's on your feet.
Fair point
What, as in it’s like it made of metal like a horse’s shoe? And I do forget mine (39s) are on, because it’s like my foot is directly hitting the road for all the cushioning they have
I think I'd take the Adidas SL2 over this. My personal current favourite daily is the Novablast V3 (2 pairs in rotation). I just like my daily trainers to have more versatility. Nike make great race day shoes, but they have fallen WAY behind the rest of the market in the daily category.
Very honest thank you as ever. Daily and gym going do it all option. Like others have said, better (lighter, more bounce and even cheaper) out there still.
Absolutely
You should do a disclaimer about the disclaimer.
Good idea
How's the sizing for wide footers? DO you recommend sizing up going with the wide option?
Please compare to novablast 4. Thanks Fordy! 😊
thank you for reviewing
Tks
How do you rate these compared to the novablast 4s?
NB better but this is only my first view
I'm not even recommending the Nike (Pegasus, Pegasus Turbo, Zoom Fly, Invincible, React) Series. Instead focus on buying and using nike (Vaporfly, AlphaFly) series.
Fair enough
I thought of another thing that I don’t like . The tongue is too wide compared to the 34
Velocity Nitro is life
V3 is good but narrow
Hoka Clifton 9 and Nova Blast 4 what are those like compared to Peg 41 that’s comparison I want know.
Compare it to Kawana 2.
Little update. Now after doing 7 miles today I can confirm the under foot pad does not interfere with running.
Has a nice birthday discount with the Nike app. Just bought these for £97…. Hopefully they’ll be good … got the Mach 6 for some serious fast running and hoping the peg 41 will be the nice long distance days
Always know your reviews are legit 👍
Thank you I appreciate it
I’m sure I could feel the under toe shock pouch after my first 3 mile run. Not ran in them since. Very odd
Very odd
@@FordyRuns but I’m 90kg 🤷 I’ll running tomorrow and doing a 10k so let’s see.
It's a decent shoe if they don't I crease the price, with this price point Adidas SL2 and Puma Velocity Nitro 3 are better choices... And cheaper
Do you think it's better than the Vomero 17??
No
Spot on Fordy… this is a real unbiased review, this is why you are the best in the business.
unlike another youtube reviewer from Florida who has given glorious feedback on this shoe and says he will take peg41 over all the other daily trainers you mentioned- the shoe got sent to him by Nike - so wouldn’t blame him to say that 😂
Thank you I appreciate it
Just cause it doesn’t work for Fordy doesn’t mean it won’t work for others…
@@iGo0gIeexactly. Thanks for keeping things positive!
@@iGo0gIe hope it works for you mate…in the two years of following Fordy - I have never gone wrong over 10 pairs of shoes - so you know why I would trust his reviews
Hi , can you compare with 880 v14 of new balance , i think that will be very onterested after 880 is boeng changed .
Will do
Sole looks very Pumagrippish
It is maybe better
Good afternoon. At Spain 🇪🇸=140€. Thanks Fordy. Here is my Like. A nice weekend for everyone.
Thank you
Can you use the Pegasus 41 in the gym workouts?
Yep prob better for that than running tbh
@@FordyRuns Really? So the peg41 is a hybrid shoe for running and gym training?
@@janangelodadis2805 basically. it's like the perfect military PT shoe.
able to do 5-10 mile run with good pace, but much more nimble doing something like an obstacle course or 100m shuttle runs than your typical ultra soft mega stack height runner. able to do 90% of your gym workouts, but i wouldn't trust weighted squats or deadlifting in any foam runners though.
SON MIS ZAPATOSS 😍😉
£155? It's £129
One mistake
Would have thought you would still want to correct it.
@@Fozzee.1970leave it as an Easter egg for anyone who loves to pick holes
@@Fozzee.1970it’ll change price over time anyway so it shouldn’t really matter. It won’t be £129 for long!
@FordyRuns, keep up the good work, great review!
@@FordyRuns i think you are being overly defensive. You made a statement it wasnt worth £155 and it isn't. I didn't criticize you I just pointed it out so you could give your viewers accurate info. Is it good business to be cranky to your subscribers?
An improvement in the Pegasus only 10 years behind the competition now
Very bad colour
