Nike Men's Pegasus 42 GORE-TEX Running Shoes - Black/Met Dark Grey/Lemon Venom

The Nike Men's Pegasus 42 GORE-TEX Running Shoes – Black/Met Dark Grey/Lemon Venom bring weather-ready protection to one of Nike's most versatile daily trainers. Built for wet, stormy road runs, this winterized Pegasus combines a waterproof GORE-TEX upper, responsive ReactX foam, and a curved full-length Air Zoom unit for an energized ride when conditions turn unpredictable.

The Black/Metallic Dark Grey/Lemon Venom colorway pairs dark, weather-ready tones with a bright Lemon Venom accent for a performance-driven look. Reflective details add visibility to the design in low-light conditions.

Full-Length Air Zoom + ReactX

The Pegasus 42 features a curved full-length Air Zoom unit shaped to follow the foot, delivering a propulsive sensation and Nike's highest energy return from heel through toe-off. Compared with previous Pegasus models that used separate Air Zoom units in the heel and forefoot, the updated full-length configuration creates a more continuous feel through each stride.

Underneath, ReactX foam is 13% more responsive than previous React technology, adding cushioned energy return for daily mileage. An updated silhouette also increases toe spring, helping create smooth, forward-moving transitions.

Waterproof GORE-TEX Protection

A technical mesh upper is fully lined with lightweight GORE-TEX, creating waterproof protection designed to help keep your feet dry through rain and wet road conditions.

Nike has also updated the fit with additional room through the toes and forefoot compared with the Pegasus 41, providing a more accommodating feel up front. Underfoot, the weather-ready Storm Tread outsole provides traction across changing conditions.
