Gonna break em in on tomorrow's run.r Some of my routes take me thru a muddy field and the bray/greystones cliff walk so really look forward to hammering thru those areas without soggy feet. ...thought tbh my peg 36s seem to be fairly waterproof too. The only problem is that they work the opposite way. Once the water's in - it doesn't get out.

Swore they were not for me but couldn't deny they were nice to run in. Got the peg 36s practically half price, sized up, use for easy runs mostly and at 206 miles still going well, no blistering issues. Shoe sizing and use cases are a lottery

I usually swear by them, but my Peg 36s have suddenly caused all manner of foot issues for me (after about 500 miles wear). the ball of my toe just feels incredibly sore like I've been pounding around bare foot or something. Weird, it's like my feet changed shape over night or the cushioning in the toe has died abruptly! And if it's the latter after not a massive amount of wear, that's disappointing.

crisco10 wrote: » I do. Usually have 3 or 4 on the go. It's not insignificant mileage for sure, but usually get about 800 miles out of shoes before they get retired. And never had such a dramatic feedback that they are past their useful life.
Swashbuckler wrote: » Yeah the pegasus certainly aren't a shoe I'd buy if I was looking for longevity. 500 miles, especially for Nike is bin time (or at least it is for me).

I'm absolutely not light on my feet (90kg plus or minus 4kg depending) and have gotten 1000k on a pair of Zoom Structure's, Lunarglide's, Peg 35's and have half that on a pair of Peg 36's with expectations that they'll go for longer. By way of comparison, my former Adidas Ultraboost's and Supernova's would give me 650k-ish before the uppers would give up on me. That said, I've a pair of Nike Winflo's that have issues with the upper around the heel currently with just 350k on them, but I kind of am writing that off as being a cheaper shoe with cheaper construction.
