Nike Zoom Pegasus Turbo

The Nike Zoom Pegasus Turbo, who is familiar with the Nike Pegasus series, was surprised to see the Nike Zoom Pegasus Turbo. It has almost no traditional imprint shape and ZoomX midsole cushioning technology is like a foreigner, and this first mint green color is so bright in the scorching sun. As for the actual combat performance, we can only know if we personally test it.

When you get the Nike Zoom Pegasus Turbo, I believe everyone will exclaim their personality and futuristic shape. Mint green overall body color, bright spurs from the tongue to the forefoot, double-layer transparent texture of the upper, of course, the most striking is the cushioning configuration of the ZoomX midsole. When it comes to improvement, it is basically subversive in appearance, but is it friendly to the actual performance of the runners compared to the Nike Air Zoom Pegasus 35? In this evaluation, we chose the regular plastic track, and the test was launched.

In this review, the author wore thicker towel socks, so the Nike Zoom Pegasus Turbo felt a normal squeeze on the foot for a moment, so that the shoelace was not too tight during the warm-up phase. In the walking stage, the ZoomX midsole to get rid of the carbon board did not give me too exaggerated foot feeling, which is completely different from the 4% Nike Zoom Vaporfly. Presumably this is also the meaning of the "Turbo" version. That is to remove the carbon board, in order to better meet the daily training of ordinary runners. This more approachable approach did make the author feel at the beginning of the last step.

The improvement in Turbo is not only a bright spurt, but an overall performance upgrade and experience.

Turn on flight mode

However, in the running phase, the "ordinary" foot feeling described above disappeared. In the early days of running evaluation, Nike Zoom Pegasus Turbo gave the author the feeling that although the carbon board was removed, it lost a lot in propulsion and speed, but due to the height difference of 10mm front and rear palms and the height of the forefoot of 12mm Its propulsion is still far stronger than most running shoes. And this feeling complements the fit of the upper, and does not cause the discomfort of the toe in the shoe last. In addition to the perfect design, on the other hand, thanks to the bright breeze.

It looks like the Nike Zoom Pegasus Turbo's upper design is very simple, but in fact it has a mystery. The upper is identical to the NikeLab Zoom Fly SP's translucent stretch woven material, but in the transparent material, there is also a layer of half-palm boot mesh material. The double-layer upper not only improves the aesthetics and comfort, but also improves the half. The durability of transparent stretch braiding is a key to increasing service life. Although the speed strip seems to be a thin layer, it still improves the toughness of the upper to a certain extent, protects the toes, and strengthens the safety factor of night running, which is very user-friendly.

I have always valued the support performance of running, which is also the key to measuring the excellent performance of a pair of running shoes. Nike Flywire technology, which is placed between the double uppers, has always been the key technology to improve the package, Nike Zoom Pegasus Turbo exception. When you run through every corner, you will feel the deformation of the fly line pulling the feet, pull the foot that is about to move sideways, and the thick tongue and the heel will also give support, no matter which type of running. They are very suitable. The outsole also continues the hexagonal nail-like pattern, and the grip is quite excellent.

Training top level configuration

Having said that, I finally have to go to the midsole performance. Maybe most runners don’t know. The Nike Zoom Pegasus Turbo midsole has a layer of Nike React foam in addition to the ZoomX material. This may be on the foot. Not obvious, but the purpose is to enhance the durability and stability of the midsole. In running, the Nike Zoom Pegasus Turbo's feedback to the feet is not a soft feeling, but a cushioning with a very good rebound. In the test run of more than 10Km, there was no feeling of any physical deformation in the midsole, and it seems that the mid-bottom folds have also improved.

At the end of the day, the author still wants to make a few shortcomings. Because the upper is strong, the big toe and the toe are in contact too frequently during the walking process, and the situation of rapid toe pressing will occur. Maybe this feeling It varies from person to person, but conditional runners are still better to try on before buying. The other problem is breathability. Although the underlying inner boot uses a mesh material, it feels a bit unfriendly in the sultry summer. However, in general, the Nike Zoom Pegasus Turbo is still awkward, and the actual combat for runners is still significant.

If the Nike Air Zoom Pegasus 35 is a real weapon, then the Nike Zoom Pegasus Turbo is definitely a Plus version. A better look, a more advanced configuration, all this is a performance of a pair of high-performance running shoes. Of course, the price of 1399RMB is still a little expensive for many runners, but compared to Nike Zoom Vaporfly 4%, it is really a cost-effective way to remove the carbon board. And in addition to ZoomX, you can also feel the power of Nike React, the daily training for the runners can be said to be the best partner!
