Our Verdict
Nike Pegasus Plus
Nike Vomero Plus
The Nike Vomero Plus is better than the Nike Pegasus Plus for runners who prioritize cushioning and longer runs. It offers much better impact protection and a livelier ride, though the Pegasus Plus is more stable and provides more feedback from the road. Get the Vomero Plus for comfort over distance; get the Pegasus Plus if you want a lower-profile daily trainer for faster, shorter runs.
