Nike Zoom Pegasus Turbo 2 Platinum Tint (Women's)

The most comfortable, light and quality shoes I have ever owned. It's so light weight that it's almost like I'm not wearing it. I like its design, it goes very well with sportswear. I have been using it perfectly in the gym for a year now.

A quality shoe should last

Pros: cool colors, very comfortable, light & bouncyCons: ripped/falling apart at the seams, not the most stable shoeI've had these shoes for about 4 months. Based on some other reviews, I agree that they are comfortable, but more importantly, I agree that they do not hold up well. Mine are also falling apart at the seams. They've cracked and appear to be coming apart from the sole. Not quite what I would expect from a high brand, pricey sneaker. And, this is the first time I've run in this shoe. While I like them, I do not like that they're falling apart after owning them for only 4-5 months. That's just not cool, and I'm unsure if I will buy this specific sneaker again.

Comfortable shoe, lacks durability

I love this shoe a lot. It's like a running on a cloud. The Zoom Pegasus has the comfort and support I'm looking for when I'm working out. While comfort is at a 10 the durability of the shoes was a let down. I've had them for 7 months and don't wear them everyday. Yet the sole is separating from the back of the shoe already. I never take them off by using my other foot to remove them, this shouldn't be happening. Its a shame because its a nice shoe. Very discouraging, I won't be purchasing these again.

Defect?

These are very light shoes similar to racing flats. I did some jogging in my house to test them but I'm positive I received a pair with a defect in the left heel. It felt like a hole the size of a silver dollar was below my left heel (between the insert and the bottom). The right heel didn't feel as drastic. Maybe it's the design due to the taper of the heel cushion? Either way, I know I heel strike and the design of this shoe is not compatible with my running style. Other than the heel cushion issue, the upper and design was great. I would have kept them if the heel wasn't off/not right.

Love

OK so I am compelled to write a review just because of how much I LOVE the initial look and feel of these sneakers. I have been wearing them all day every day since I got them (since I am living in athletic wear these days being stuck at home.) I am not a runner per se, but I do walk my dog several miles/day on paved trails with some sprints mixed in. For my needs, these feel amazing and they match with everything (got the lavendar/black/gold). I have had the previous version of the Zoom Pegasus in the past which I loved but decided to spend a little extra and try these. So far so good, but I will say I can potentially see the quick wear issue some have talked about with the splitting of the soles. They do seem a little flimsier than the original Zooms. Really ... MoreOK so I am compelled to write a review just because of how much I LOVE the initial look and feel of these sneakers.

Really hoping mine hold up...I hope I can modify my review at a later date if they do not.

Material is bad!

I'm a runner and was never a fan of Nike when it comes to running shoes. But at the beginning of this year a few months after covid, I thought I'd give it a shot and buy a couple of pairs that I can use for virtual races. This particular pair is really light and apparently helps me run 'faster". I'ved use this just a few times (garmin gear tracker on pics) and the back of the right one is already messed up. I'm not into giving reviews and I'm also not a big fan of returning stuff but my fiance say that I should. Why? A) during this pandemic, having this kind of shoe is considered a luxury. It's not cheap. I should at least get what I paid for. B) definitely a bad quality made shoes.

Ok. Previous model WAY better

I trained in the Peg Turbo 1’s religiously. I went through lots of pairs and then ran my fastest marathon in them last year. I love the Peg Turbo 1’s. They feel fast and they have the perfect amount of cushioning. So, when the Peg Turbo 2’s came out I was really excited. I bought a pair and have put in around 50 miles on them so far. I’m still waiting to love them like I love the Peg Turbo 1. I went to a local running store and asked what they changed from the Turbo 1 to the Turbo 2’s... they just told me the upper portion was the only thing they changed. I have to beg to differ. They feel completely different and they lack the cushiony-fast feel of the Turbo 1’s. I went back to the local running store in hopes to buy and find a pair of the Turbo 1’s!

I found them and am thinking about going back and buying more while they still have the Turbo 1’s. I am not super excited to run in the Turbo 2’s and I definitely am not excited to run my marathon in October in the Turbo 2’s! The shoe laces always come undone too. They are just ok, but not as good as the Turbo 1’s! Please bring back the Turbo 1’s!!

SO worth the price! Never paid this much for running shoes before but glad I did!

I love my running shoes! I run on my treadmill at least 4 times a week, ride my bike and go for long walks. ALL of which I have been wearing my new shoes. They are comfortable and are as light as air! I ordered them about a month ago and got them very quickly. I was unsure about sizing but honestly, they fit like they were made for my feet! Don't pass up these Pegasus Turbo 2 running shoes. I would buy them again in a heartbeat and I will when these are worn out!I even posted this post on my Facebook! I think this just about sums it up!Never in my life have I paid this much money for a pair of running shoes. But I absolutely love them and I can't wait to use them. I literally was appalled at the price of good running shoes until Kelly told me "honestly it's the ... MoreI love my running shoes!

I literally was appalled at the price of good running shoes until Kelly told me "honestly it's the cheapest sport out there because that's literally all you need are the shoes to be a runner."I never thought of it this way but she was so right! So as they say.... Nike Just Do It.

Turbo 2 Colors & Materials needs to improve.

Overall the Pegasus Turbo 2 is ok but I still like the Pegasus Turbo 1 more. The only thing that negative about the Turbo 1 is that they didn’t make it wide enough so it sore on the sides of my feet. OK here are my experience with the Turbo 21. The fabric on the Turbo 2 is breathable however, the material/quality isn’t great as It got super dirty after I wore it a few times (see images attached).2. Color isn’t as fashionable or vibrant as the Turbo 13. You’ll get a wet feet if you run in the rain or in the winter with Turbo 2.4. The Turbo 2 added extra foam padding but it more firm.5. Thin and light6. Extra rooms in the sides and the front.Overall, a huge turn off on the Turbo 2 are the material feels cheap and it gets dirty. Also the color isn’t great. ... MoreOverall the Pegasus Turbo 2 is ok but I still like the Pegasus Turbo 1 more.

nice comfortable attractive super lightweight running shoe

I got the luminous green shoe that says "Just Do It". It is very pretty and comfortable with good bounce when running. I wear socks. The fore foot section is roomy, the shoe is definitely not overly narrow like some other styles. I think it runs very true to size as I wear a 7.5 in 'normal' shoes and this is the size I got. I have a thin and flattish foot without much instep. I can wiggle my toes in these shoes! People with a slightly wider foot or higher instep would probably find them ok. The shoes are incredibly lightweight and I agree with another reviewer who said she thought the box was empty! They do NOT dig into my ankles or anywhere else and I do not need higher socks to cushion farther up my Achilles at the back, regular low socks work fine. While other ... MoreI got the luminous green shoe that says "Just Do It". It is very pretty and comfortable with good bounce when running. I wear socks.

They do NOT dig into my ankles or anywhere else and I do not need higher socks to cushion farther up my Achilles at the back, regular low socks work fine. While other reviewers said the laces seem cheap, I think that was purposely done to lighten the shoe and I find they stay tied well due to the ridges on them. I run short runs usually under 3 miles on road and treadmill and found no issues with aches and pains after running in them. You can definitely tell they are lighter when running. The only thing I would change is the amount or type of sole to increase shock absorption to be a little more like the element react 55, which I was running in and gave up as they are so tight and short I need to put on band aides at my Achilles to prevent getting cuts from the back of the shoe and can't wear them for very long. Also for reference, the sole of the react 55, while extremely shock absorbing, is a little squishy for lots of running, I feel it could be just a tad firmer, but still works fine for short runs. This is only my second pair of Nike's and I am very happy with the purchase. I have run for years in bargain shoes and hope to prevent future injuries by wearing proper running shoes. oh and did I mention they are CUTE! Also I am nearly 60 and have about 10 lbs more on than I should, so shock absorption is really appreciated!
