Nike Pegasus Plus vs Vomero Plus

The Nike Vomero Plus and the Nike Pegasus Plus are the first two 'Plus' models to be released as part of Nike's daily trainer reshuffle. They follow a similar formula: take the basic geometry of the iconic model's upper, and put a full stack of PEBA-based ZoomX foam in the midsole. In terms of energy return, the result is similar, as both shoes have a good bounce. But when it comes to cushioning, they couldn't be more different: The Pegasus Plus becomes harsh and bottoms out quickly, while the Vomero Plus offers truly excellent impact absorption, thanks to its much taller stack of ZoomX. That said, if you prioritise ground feel and lateral stability, the Pegasus Plus could still be a good option, but if comfort is queen, the Vomero Plus is the better shoe.
