Arrived this morning and I’m super impressed so far. They feel fabulous under foot and bouncy. 😀 They aren’t the most sensible colour scheme 😂 but at least they’ll be ok for this week with no rain. 😬 Can’t wait to try them outside but that will be tomorrow now at least.

I couldn’t justify forking out stupid money for the alpha fly and these should fit perfectly into my shoe rotation filling the tempo and speed sessions.

Yes it is. 😊 That’s the view from the drawing room.

Beautiful...every reason to wake up and pop out for a morning run with a view like that on your door step 😊

They are bangers! Seen some great reviews for these!

They’re the bounciest shoes I’ve tried on (just in the house for now), I’d say they have more snap than my Vapor fly too. Really looking forward to trying them out.

I converted from Brooks a while back although I do still like On and have the Cloudflyer 2 on the go at the moment. I’m a bit of a gear freak tbh 😬😂. My rotation now is pretty much where I want it.

I’ll see how these go but I’m expecting to use them for tempo and speed work.

Them’s beauties ! 🥰😍😘. You’ll spend some happy hours in those babies 🙂

I really like Nike shoes. They last a long time. I wear the til their allocated mileage - if they’re not dead before that - they’re then dog walking shoes. Or gardening

I tried a vomero on ages ago but it was a bit too much shoe for me back then, but I wouldn’t mind a pair for really long runs, as they’re wider in the toe box than pegasus They were also dearer, so Pegasus won

Mind you I’d buy an older model for cheaper if I could find some online as I need something for a marathon that doesn’t give me blisters

I can’t seem to throw my old ones away. 😂 Good to know there’s a few of us in the garden with our Nike’s on 😂😂😂. I have a pair of Pegasus that are about to be retired hence this purchase. They have done over 600km and still look good. I also have some Zoom Fly 3s arriving later as I bought them before I saw the Next%. I’ll try them on anyway but they’ll probably be returned.

Yes 600 km ! I did wear some out before that though, but you know when they’re dead as there’s no bounce. Like they’ve lost their bungee 😃

They wash up a treat once retired for their new life in civvy street. I’ve still got several pairs for knocking about in
