Nike Pegasus 42 • Pure Platinum/Dark Obsidian/Work Blue
The men's Nike Pegasus 42 in Pure Platinum/Dark Obsidian/Work Blue is a versatile road shoe with a responsive everyday feel. ReactX foam works with a curved, full-length Air Zoom unit to cushion your landing and enliven the transition forward. The updated forefoot gives toes a little more space than in the Pegasus 41.
Everyday road running
ReactX and Air Zoom
10 mm
Why it works
- Air from heel to forefoot: A full-length, curved Air Zoom unit replaces the separate heel and forefoot units used in the earlier model.
- Responsive foam: ReactX adds cushioning around the Air unit for a balanced daily-training feel.
- Flexible road traction: An updated Waffle outsole combines high-abrasion rubber with flex grooves, while a soft mesh upper helps ventilation.
Fit & feel
This listing uses men's regular D sizing. Nike describes more room in the forefoot and toe box than the Pegasus 41, but that is not the same as a wide-width version. Check the fit with your running socks and leave comfortable space ahead of the toes.
Where it fits your day
Built for consistent road training, from easy outings to days when you pick up the pace. Its everyday cushioning can also suit walking and routine errands. Choose trail-specific footwear when secure grip on loose or rough terrain is the priority.
