Nike Pegasus 40

THE PEGASUS IS SYNONYMOUS WITH NIKE RUNNING.

Though revised and reimagined over the last four decades, the Pegasus has nevertheless been a constant in the Nike performance run line since its 1983 release – save a two-year hiatus when Nike dropped the line (1998-2000).

The Pegasus was the Swoosh’s first mid-priced running shoe featuring pressurized Air technology. That game-changing creation demonstrated Nike’s innovative chops and set an ambitious pace for the brand.

On a few colorways of the Pegasus 40 released earlier this year, Nike celebrated the model’s historic place in the Nike lineup by featuring Swoosh logos pulled from the original Pegasus as well as editions 24, 35 and 38.
