That means you can expect a lot of plush cushion with every footstrike. Unlike the Vomero 7, which I felt became firmer, the Cushlon in the Pegasus 29 feels identical to the 28. Nike Air Pegasus+ 29 Sole UnitĪs in past versions, the Pegasus 29’s midsole is completely made of Cushlon EVA. The heel counter is firm, which should lock down the heel nicely on the run.

Because of this torsional flexibility, I expect the Pegasus 29 to provide very little pronation control, which makes the shoe ideal for the neutral runner. Side-to-side, the 29 also twists very easily. The plastic shank piece the 28 had behind the forefoot is gone, but, as far as I can see, it does not affect the 29 in any way, except maybe some weight savings. One of my favorite features of the 28 was its flexibility, and the 29 is no different. But the midsole looks sleeker, giving the 29 a more streamlined, even futuristic look. Much of the shoe looks familiar, like the Flywire lacing system and the upper patterns.

My immediate impression is the Pegasus 29 looks like a sleeker version of the 28.
