I ran 40 miles in the Nike Pegasus Plus 2 and it’s worth the upgrade on the Pegasus 42
The Nike Pegasus Plus 2 is the best daily trainer in Nike’s line-up right now and is worth the extra you pay over the Pegasus 42, but other brands have options I prefer.
The Nike Pegasus Plus 2 is a high-performance running shoe that offers a more enjoyable and versatile ride compared to the Nike Pegasus 42. In a review, the shoe was praised for its comfortable fit and excellent cushioning. The Pegasus Plus 2 features a 10mm drop from heel to toe, which is a bit higher than the industry average.
It is made with a mesh upper and thick padding around the collar, providing a secure fit and good breathability. The midsole includes an Air Zoom pod for added energy return, and the outsole is constructed with Nike’s waffle tread rubber for durability. The Pegasus Plus 2 weighs 9.3oz, making it lighter than other Pegasus models.
While it is slightly more expensive than the Pegasus 42, it is competitively priced for a cushioned daily trainer. Overall, the Pegasus Plus 2 is an excellent choice for runners who prefer a high-drop shoe and enjoy a bouncy, plush ride.
