Awesome review and very detailed. I'm basically just going to use these for hiking with my dog and for casual wear so they seem like a good fit for me!
I just bought a second pair for the looks. They look rugged and stylish while also understated. These shoes might not be one of the Top shoes for trail running, but they more than capable on a trail or a sidewalk. Sadly, Nike stopped selling them.
I got these for around $65.. basically because they look quite good for casual use. Most of Nike's shoes for casual/lifestyle use are too juvenile, flashy or just ghetto these days. These sneakers come in some very nice color combos and have a nice shape and are perfect for everyday use around the city.
Hey! Good review! They look a lot like the first couple of versions of the Wild Horse (I'd even say identical), which were more simple and minimal than the current ones. Good idea from Nike to provide this option again.
Great job! You have a knack for this. I ordered them as I am not going on many technical trails and I like a thinner sole for more feel. We will see if I like them. All the best with the channel.
These are a super underrated shoe. Any idea if they’re making a new version for 2021? I love how this mixes old and new style of runners, I’m tired of the one piece sock/knit shoes.
So, I just picked up the 'oreo' colourway - strapped for cash, caught these for $94 CDN. Size 12 true, and they run true - not wide, not tight, not loose. My 'assumption' and another guiding reason I bought them, is that Nike 'LUNAR' midsole are my ABSOLUTE FAV. Having 3 (three) visible architectural lines running the sides of the midsole has always from what I can gather denoted a 'LUNAR' midsole - whether it is printed on said shoe or not - you can verify and check this fact simply by going to any LUNAR shoe you have EVER had and see 3 (three) midsole lines. They ALL have it. In fact, there are NIKE shoes with 2 (two) of these lines and they have specifically NOT been, LUNAR midsoles. These DEFINITELY have 'the feel' of LUNAR, and I am more pleased by that than anything else in this world. There is nothing more snappy, responsive, and protective to me other than LUNAR - and that my friend is definitely THESE!
@Colin Swift I'll be using mine for the combo road-gravel path so as you mentioned for these, they will definitely be great for just that - for any more technical trails, I would certainly go with something more advanced - such as the Wildhorse, or Terra Kiger. Higher price point, but if you're putting in the mileage in the mud, well you'll know what's worth it or not! Ty for the great review! 👍
Nike has always fit me true since I was a boy. I was looking for a shoe to walk some cinder or crushed stone rail trails, some moderate hiking ( no running), and riding my mountain bike, and under $100. I have had other Nike with that same issue of the stability side-to-side but not bad for just a casual sneak. I ordered a pair of these from Kohl's for $70 bucks last night. The blackish ones with the yellow swoosh and red laces. The only color I could find online in a US 15. I have a wide forefoot so I hope they fit well. Thanks Colin.
@@swiftcolin Delivered the other day. I have put about 15 miles on them do far. I like them. I get a little more cushion because I use the Dr. Scholl's 440 inserts since I have flat feet. Funny thing, on flat surfaces like smooth vinyl flooring and painted concrete, the indent on the sole at heel creates a slight suction. Thanks again Colin.
I got a pair for around $60.00.I think that they feel like a discount version of the wildhorse 5.I think that they even have the wildhorse slogan on the left side.☺I feel like I got a OK deal because I had been on eBay trying to get a pair of nike trails and the resellers were asking too much. I walked right into a local store and found them in my size no problem
Thanks for reviewing 👍👍 I have a question about this shoes actually I wearing this shoe last couple of months it's really comfortable and light weight, Please tell me one thing is it washable or not?
I play golf and walk about 6 miles a round, could you suggest a pair of trail shoes for me? I currently wear True Link wear golf shoe with a zero drop sole.
Hey man, thanks for the vid! What would be the best currently available replacement for the Wild horse 5? From the looks and your description, I almost feel like this would be it?
And the reason I ask is that the Wildhorse 5 is the most comfortable shoe I've ever worn... So would like to replicate that feel. My Wh5's are just super worn down under the big toe and lateral heel.
Definitely not these! Wildhorse 5 had great traction and lots of protection underfoot, these have neither of those... tough question because the wildhorse 6 is a very different shoe from the 5 as well... the closest thing I’ve tried lately that compares to the Wildhorse 5 would probably be the Salomon Sense Ride 3, lots of protection, great traction and a very dense midsole.
@@swiftcolin thanks, they look almost identical and when I first saw them I thought it was a different version or colorway of the 5. Appreciate the tip.
Hey guy, thx for this review!! I was looking for information about the precise drop but as you mentionned it's not very clear 4 to 6 perhaps even 8 something mentionned... do you know more about this right now? Thx again
How are these shoes for normal everyday use? I walk/sometimes run on the roads for 1 hour every day. I literally just got these shoes today and wore them to a restaurant for a casual dinner and found they were slipping on the floor everywhere. I thought it was the shoes slipping on the wet-ish tiles but my friends mentioned that their dress shoes were also slipping on those tiles. Now, I am not sure if I should keep them or return them, for everyday use. I really like how they look but don't want shoes that would slip everywhere, that I am afraid of wearing them. Any advice please ?
@@swiftcolin Oh so they're not grippy? Too bad. I was looking for an affordable trail shoes, for light trails, but good enough to run in the rain and mud as well since it's rainy season here. Tried a nearby trail yesterday on my Pegasus 38, they're ok, good grip on loose dirt downhill. But i'd rather use trail shoes.
What is the drop from heel to toe? I have been looking for that but can't find it. Do you experience it about the same as the Wildhorse 4? (the ones I'm replacing now).
hi bro! dont know if you still have those but if you do, I would like to ask you how much does it weight and what size are u in us ? is want to know that to compare them with other pairs. (i've seen review sites but they are innacurate relative to weight)
I don’t have these anymore, but they were a size 10.5, not positive on the weight, but I’d say around 10 ounces in my size, they didn’t feel heavy at all.
The Nike Pegasus 36 Trail is my all time favourite, only negative is lack of traction. I’m also a fan of the Hoka Speedgoat 4, sizing is a little weird for me with those but they are great, lots of cush, protection and traction, just a very narrow toe box, but they do have a wide version that I’ll probably try out next time.
I wouldn't recommend these shoes for trail, I'm sure they would be okay for road, but there are way better options out there as a hybrid shoe. Pegasus trail is a good one.
Mid quality for average needs, like one day hike around the city, once a week. But it is enough for average user. I will probably buy them when they get discounted. Someone should test them on wet grass
@@swiftcolin thanks for the quick reply. He had a change of heart and told me not to get them. Now I'm planning to get them for myself...they look nice. 😆🤣😂 I'm a casual jogger- I run/walk to my gym & pool club coz I hate treadmill running. I think these should do the trick? Plus they look cool.
Its just a running shoe. No protection at all. For speedsoft inside fancy buildings with the floor intact? Why not. But I wouldnt play in them in forest. Look for salomon speedcross if you want something similiar but more rigid and cut-proof.
Awesome review and very detailed. I'm basically just going to use these for hiking with my dog and for casual wear so they seem like a good fit for me!
Awesome! Hope they work well for you.
I just bought a second pair for the looks. They look rugged and stylish while also understated. These shoes might not be one of the Top shoes for trail running, but they more than capable on a trail or a sidewalk. Sadly, Nike stopped selling them.
I hope they release another budget trail runner, I think these sold well.
Man the blue/green ones look so damn good

Agreed! Wish they could improve the rubber compound, but aside from that I love these things.

Haven’t seen anything about a second iteration yet, but wouldn’t be surprised if they did!

Love the lunar theory! I think you’re right, I did find these comfortable too, however traction was bad.

Not a fan of this shoe but that’s still a good deal!
Great vid...how do you think these would perform in a OCR??? Like tough mudder, spartan race etc.
They don’t do well in wet and muddy conditions, so I wouldn’t trust these for OCR.
Thanks for reviewing 👍👍 I have a question about this shoes actually I wearing this shoe last couple of months it's really comfortable and light weight, Please tell me one thing is it washable or not?
I never washed mine so I’m not too sure about that actually.
Thanks for the review. Exactly what I was looking for.
Glad I could help!
Great review - exactly what I wanted to hear! :)
Glad it could help, Shane!
This was super helpful. You mentioned these might be good for hiking?
I think they would be okay, not much protection, and traction isn’t great for rough terrain, but generally light and comfortable.
I play golf and walk about 6 miles a round, could you suggest a pair of trail shoes for me? I currently wear True Link wear golf shoe with a zero drop sole.
If you like zero drop, check out some Altra Lone Peaks, or some other Altra models, good grip, zero drop, wide forefoot.

You’re right they do look a lot alike! I’d generally stay away from the Juniper for serious trail running.
@@swiftcolin Do they ship to other countries? Where should I order from?
great video! how do these compare in width to the wildhorse 6? i found those a bit wide in the heel midfoot area, but i love the wide toebox
Thanks! Very similar width to the Wildhorse 6 actually, I think you’re able to get a better mid foot lockdown in the Pegs though.
I just Found and subbed. I look forward to supporting the content.
Thanks so much!
Hey guy, thx for this review!! I was looking for information about the precise drop but as you mentionned it's not very clear 4 to 6 perhaps even 8 something mentionned... do you know more about this right now? Thx again
No problem! Personally it felt closer to a 4-6mm drop, but I could be wrong, I still can’t find the exact official drop listed anywhere unfortunately.

They slipped everywhere on the trails too, but that’s the only place I wore them!

Not grippy at all in wet conditions
Awesome! Thanks so much for the detailed review!! :)
No prob!
Would these shoes be a good hybrid for walking road and trail? I'm looking for something that can do both comfortably at the moment.
I think so, the traction just isn’t very good on wet trails so just be careful there!
Just wondering how you think these would these fare in the wet? Running through dewy grass etc?
From my experience with them, I would say they wouldn't perform very well in wet conditions.
@@swiftcolin Thank you for your advice - I'm finding hard to choose a waterproof trail shoe that doesn't break the bank!
@@sophnurse8188 Maybe check out the Pegasus 37 Shield, or the Legend React 3 Shield.
Do you think they will work for a gym workout like leg workouts?
I think they would work fine for that!
Thank you! I was looking for something affordable and l like the way they fit ( l don’t run btw )
What is the drop from heel to toe? I have been looking for that but can't find it. Do you experience it about the same as the Wildhorse 4? (the ones I'm replacing now).
It feels lower than the Wildhorse, I’m guessing 4mm or 6mm but I’m not positive.
Great review. Thanks for posting

@@swiftcolinhmm ok, thank you for the reply!
Thoughts on using it for mountain biking?
I cant speak on how they would do, but I don't see why they wouldn't work!
is it waterproof? like atleast when raining ?
These aren’t waterproof
I bought it today
I wear a size 9 but when I purchase Nike Flyknit shoes I have to wear a size 9.5 so do they run like Nike Flyknit shoes
I would say these run more like normal Nike sizing.
Good review. Thanks!
No problem!
Best shoe EVAAAAAAAA
What would u recommend as your favorite trail runner?
The Nike Pegasus 36 Trail is my all time favourite, only negative is lack of traction. I’m also a fan of the Hoka Speedgoat 4, sizing is a little weird for me with those but they are great, lots of cush, protection and traction, just a very narrow toe box, but they do have a wide version that I’ll probably try out next time.
I need these to grip slippery pub toilets and bumpy pavements on the way to Londis. Sold. Thank you.
Is this ok for road running too? I want a shoe I can use on both road and on trails.
I wouldn't recommend these shoes for trail, I'm sure they would be okay for road, but there are way better options out there as a hybrid shoe. Pegasus trail is a good one.
@@swiftcolin Ok thanks. Makes me wonder what use a shoe like this would have then lol
Haha yea it’s a bit of a dud in my opinion.
How would these do for just walking the dog on sidewalks?
I think they would be good!
Mid quality for average needs, like one day hike around the city, once a week. But it is enough for average user. I will probably buy them when they get discounted. Someone should test them on wet grass
I’m betting they aren’t very good on wet grass
@@swiftcolin they are probably slippery, but are they waterproof on several rain drops ?
Definitely not waterproof either
Slippery as hell in the wet, anyone know a remedy for that, or do I just need to wear them in..?
I found the traction was pretty bad in most if not all conditions as well.
Will this work on Extension ridge?
Maybe for hiking, but I wouldn’t run in these because the traction is so bad.
I'm traveling back home, and getting these for my dad, 70, roughly a 240pound old man. He wears size 45 EU...I hope they will be comfortable for him?
I found these to be generally pretty comfortable to wear around!
@@swiftcolin thanks for the quick reply. He had a change of heart and told me not to get them. Now I'm planning to get them for myself...they look nice. 😆🤣😂
I'm a casual jogger- I run/walk to my gym & pool club coz I hate treadmill running. I think these should do the trick? Plus they look cool.
@@rhizoidx they def look cool!
Devo compra dois nuneros a mais?
Is good for gym ?
I didn’t use it for the gym, but I think it would be okay for that.
Are these water resistant?
Definitely not water resistant.
What color are these ?
I think they were "Olive"
@@swiftcolin Okay thanks, I saw that they are no longer available.
Are these still available for sale???
I doubt it, but I’m not sure.
Is walking shoes?
More for trail running and hiking, but would be fine for walking.
is good for play airsoft?
Hmm I’m not sure what airsoft is?
Its just a running shoe. No protection at all. For speedsoft inside fancy buildings with the floor intact? Why not. But I wouldnt play in them in forest. Look for salomon speedcross if you want something similiar but more rigid and cut-proof.
They seem narrow in the middle - nice looking shoe though.
Definitely look decent!
👍
Would you put the ADIDAS EastTrail over this Nike shoes??
I’m not a fan of these Nike’s, but I’ve also never ran in the Adidas EastTrail, so I’m not too sure unfortunately.
@@swiftcolin 👍 Take care.....😷.....
Thanks, but not for me
Extremely slippery shoes.
