With Nike's new nine shoe product architecture starting to take shape, their latest piece of the puzzle has many excited but also intrigued.

The Pegasus has gone premo, thanks to a host of midsole tech and a newly developed upper. The triple-layered midsole jams three of Nike's best technologies into a 45mm stack height. Sandwiched between two pieces of foam – ZoomX and ReactX respectively – is a full-length Zoom Air chamber.

A first for Nike's running category, this combination makes the Pegasus Premium surprisingly sprightly given its relative weight. All of that Air and foam does give you plenty of cushioning, helping this Pegasus really live-up to the Premium nameplate, with a lush on-road feeling.

The uppers are made with a combination of engineered mesh and circular knit, creating a breathable finish that's secure without being restrictive. The form is still recognisably Pegasus, sitting nicely atop that oversized midsole.

The Pegasus Premium will release in-store and online, Thursday 30th January.
