Pegasus 42

Daily Trainer2026-04-09 · JP · ReleaseChecked 2026-09-25

Pegasus 42 is a daily road trainer for easy runs and regular training. It replaces the Pegasus 41’s separate heel and forefoot Air Zoom units with a curved, full-length unit, while keeping ReactX foam. Added forefoot cushioning, greater toe spring and more toe room mark this generation. Breathable mesh and midfoot support shape the fit; a grooved, high-abrasion Waffle rubber outsole supplies road traction and flex.
