That said, it is still on the moderate to thicker end for trainers, which both adds durability and also a little heat retention on hot days. Compared to the previous version, the upper is stripped down, which helps it breath a bit more and shaves off a good chunk of weight.
The length gives about a thumbs width at the end, and the slightly more narrow construction works well for my foot. I saw true to size because I would not personally alter up or down a half size to improve my personal fit. The tongue has been subtly modified as well, reducing thickness and length to reduce possible irritation.Nathan: The Pegasus line has continually fit on the narrow end, but would still be in the "true to size" category for me in my men's size 9. This creates extra security without pulling too tight on the mesh. To secure the laces, the Pegasus 38 has Flywire cable loops around the midfoot. With only 5 lace up holes instead of 6 on most shoes, the shoe flexes better with your foot. The mesh is thicker in areas that see more wear and tear, like the edges around the toe box. The mesh upper also results in a clean, sleek look. The low profile of this upper provides extra support and minimizes foot movement within the foot, securing the tongue of the shoe from sliding during your run and giving you more responsiveness. The upper mesh is also very breathable as it has extra perforations added to the high heat areas, which helps keep your feet dry and cool. It also allows the upper to more naturally form around your foot, as it bends and swells during heel-to-toe transition.
This type of fabric makes the shoe rather flexible, and is nearly seamless, front-to-back.

Bottom line: good design and mass appeal makes it a shoe with staying power. Its neutral design makes it perfect for normal pronators, but the shoe offers plenty of support for under pronators as well. The unique feature in the Pegasus 38, however, is an air pouch within the shoe. But it is a great shoe designed for all levels of runners, and considered one of Nike’s best-selling running shoes. It it is not a high-end shoe with the newest technology. The Air Zoom Pegasus 38 is fairly affordable for a good, quality running shoe.
There aren’t any major changes – just a handful of smart upgrades from the Zoom Pegasus 37. This year sees the Air Zoom Pegasus in its 38th (!) version, a testament to its staying power as a popular running classic. And for decades, one shoe that runners have never stopped wanting in the Pegasus. From durable, high-mileage training shoes to the ultra-light and controversial high-performance VaporFly, Nike probably makes a shoe you want. Their line up offers a wide variety of options in the running department. Nike is the reigning champ of athletic shoes.
