Our Verdict
Nike Pegasus Premium
Nike Vomero Plus
The Nike Vomero Plus is a better shoe than the Nike Pegasus Premium for most runners. It provides more dependable impact protection across different loads and works much better for daily training plus longer efforts. The Pegasus Premium is more specialized, working best for easy mileage where its softer ride can take priority. Get the Vomero Plus for versatility; get the Pegasus Premium if you mainly want a highly cushioned shoe for relaxed running.
