Review on Reviewing the Nike Women's Air Zoom Pegasus 36 Running Shoes: A Comprehensive Analysis by Roger King

Revainrating 3 out of 5

width width? Not really...

I bought them wide because I have flat feet and need the extra width to fit. When I received the box, it didn't say "wide" anywhere. Nike usually has a sticker on the box that says "Wide Width". The shoes didn't mention it anywhere either. So I pulled out my other Nikes, exactly the same size, and looked at the tongue label, which clearly says WIDTH:W (purple circled). I don't know if it's because the tongue is sewn to the boot or something else, but they are very tight. Broken cookie jar comes to mind! When I put the shoe on, you can see the gap between the shoe and the tongue. I ended up having to google the code number on the tongue to see if they were supposed to be wide, but they didn't match. The little threads around the laces were annoying. I adjusted everything I could think of and they just didn't fit or look right. The tongue also rises at an angle, which to me just adds to the weirdness. They went straight back to the box to come back. I was really hoping they would be better! I'm sticking with Downshifter and Revolution.
