Nike breathes life back to the retro Air Pegasus 2005 sneaker model to join the roster for the Summer 2024 season. It is an optimal running shoe that appeals to the 'dad shoe' concept. The revived running shoe is made from mesh materials for a breathable feel with support from various other elements.
Branding can be seen throughout the silhouette including the insole, the side of the shoe, the tongue, and over the forefoot. The tongue is marked with 'Air Pegasus' and the rest is detailed with the iconic Swoosh emblem. The relaunch of the shoe will be seen in a muted colorway palette which blends the hues of some grey with metallic silver or black and white.
