Great all-around shoe that can handle anything!

5/5

Overall

This is an awesome all-around daily trainer. The Peg37 has no issues slogging 8:00 pace, and no issues picking it up to 5:30 pace either. The softness of the foam lets you just put in the miles, while the zoom air pouch (?) lets you pick it up for a spontaneous tempo or some strides. They also look awesome. My only issue with the shoe was the tight-fitting upper, but that was resolved after fewer than 5 runs when the material began to break in. Now I have no issues with the upper. 100% recommend these shoes for anybody. I used to have unexplainable sharp plantar issues in ALL Nike shoes but gave these a try and have no regrets at all.
