Our verdict

The React nike air max gray black kids clothes line is one of the top road-to-trail options from Nike shoes we have ever worn and scrutinized. Cushiony and responsive on the roads yet grippy and stable on the trails, the shoe makes a perfect hybrid. It also remains surprisingly light given all the features packed into it. We are happy shoes it feels a lot like the original Pegasus Trail 36 but with an enhanced grip.

Who should NOT buy

Despite a significant improvement of traction in the outsole, the Trail 4 is still not the shoe to go for if you run on loose or wet trails a lot. It is a big NO-NO for soggy muddy winter trails.

Cushioning

Heel stack

The shoe has a significantly thicker midsole too. Based on the official stats, its heel height of 36 mm is a few millimeters taller than the average across trail shoes.

Our own caliper measurement showed just a tiny (0.5 mm) deviation from shoes stack height at 35.5 mm.

nike air max pale mint green shoes free printable | Drop

Because of the deviation we discovered in the shoe's stack height measurements, the nike air max gray black kids clothes line's actual drop ended up being 12.7 mm! Not the claimed 10 mm.

Some runners may find the higher heel drop problematic as it activates leg and foot muscles in a different way. Watch out!

Midsole softness

Note: a low durometer measurement equals a soft material, whereas a high measurement means it's firm.

The Nike nike air max gray black kids clothes line felt quite brisk and responsive on the hard surfaces yet firm enough to feel planted on the trails.

Our durometer measurements show 34.0 HA, which is 20% firmer than the average trail shoe. It belongs to the moderately firm cushioning types but there is still some softness present to make it a perfect option for switching from road to trail.

Insole thickness

Added cushioning is provided by a well-padded insole. It is 4.2 mm thick compared to the average 4.6 mm. The insole is removable and can be easily replaced with custom orthotics if necessary.

Ride

Based on our run tests, in the nike air max gray black kids clothes line, the shoe is equally at home on the asphalt and on the trails. It's got the best of both worlds!

Speaking more specifically about the shoe’s performance on different types of terrain:

1. On asphalt, bike paths, and tarmac the ride is pretty energetic with lugs never getting in the way. It even felt almost like a dedicated road shoe!

2. If you happen to run on gravel and similar terrain, the nike air max gray black kids clothes line really really comes alive on these! The shoe's forefoot lugs grabbed very well running both up and down the hill.

3. On a single track, and more technical and rocky terrain, it's a mixed bag. Because the shoe's cushioning is nothing like the Speedgoat where tons of cushioning keeps you protected, we had to pick our lines and tiptoe the way at times. But on the other hand, the nike air max gray black kids clothes line still performed a lot better than any other nike sb lunarlon grey and yellow dress black shoes.

Size and fit

We've had absolutely no problems with the fit of this nike sb lunarlon grey and yellow dress black shoes. It feels perfect straight from the box with no rubbing, hot spots, or irritation.

We were especially intrigued by the combination of the well-positioned gusseted tongue and the Flywire cables around the laces. These have kept the midfoot very well-held.

As for the toebox, it’s not the widest shoe in the world but it never felt constricting either. The Trail 4 does have a slightly shallower toebox compared to Trail 3 but it never caused problems to our medium-width feet.

Measuring the shoe's toebox in the widest part, our caliper showed 100.4 mm which is even a couple of millimeters wider than average.

Stability

Lateral stability test

We couldn't help but notice how stable this Nike shoe is, especially compared to its predecessor. The Pegasus Trail 3 felt too soft and high for a trail shoe, whereas the Trail 4 feels closer and more connected to the ground.

We attribute the shoe’s stability to several characteristics: the well-balanced React foam itself, the extended edges of the foam shoes cradle the bottom of the upper, and the secure upper lockdown which doesn’t let the foot shift inside the shoe.

Torsional rigidity

What does NOT help the Nike nike air max gray black kids clothes line feel stable is its lack of torsional rigidity (which is totally expected from a neutral shoe by the way!).

Twisting the shoe in our hands, we found shoes it yielded quite easily and was very pliable. Thus, we gave it a score of only 2 out of 5, where 5 is the stiffest.

Midsole width - forefoot

The Nike nike air max gray black kids clothes line's platform is not so wide... While it was a huge benefit for the shoe's lightness and agility, it felt very different from the broad trail shoe bases we've come to expect.

Weight

The newer version manages to get lighter while also enhancing its overall performance.

The nike air max gray black kids clothes line weighs 9.6 oz (272g) in a men’s US 9. This is noticeably lighter than the average weight of trail shoes of similar stack height (35 mm and thicker), which is 10.3 oz (291g).

nike pegasus trail 4 020 16536389 main

Running up those hills, we highly appreciated the lightness of the Trail 4. The shoe felt a lot like an extension of your foot. Not many trail shoes with this much cushion and such a reliable grip manage to keep their weight as low as this Nike Pegasus did.

Breathability

The upper of the nike air max gray black kids clothes line has plenty of perforations all throughout the upper and the tongue. These keep the interiors nice and cool even in the hotter and humid months.

Testing the shoe on a warm day in June, we had a chance to check it for ourselves and it’s indeed very well-ventilated.

Lug depth

The updated tread pattern on the Nike React nike air max gray black kids clothes line has 3.4 mm lugs which is right at the average of all our lab-tested shoes. Such lug depth is considered quite optimal for a hybrid (road-to-trail shoe).

nike-pegasus-trail-4-outdoor_002.JPG

Even though it’s nearly identical to the 3.3 mm lugs on the Trail 3 version, the 4th iteration has a totally new approach. It now has three different types of lugs which are much sharper.

We found shoes the Trail 3 really struggled with grip, especially on wet surfaces. We ended up slipping and falling on a wet rock! But this is not the case with the Trail 4.

nike-pegasus-trail-4-outdoor_006.JPG

It is still NOT the shoe for crazy off-trail stretches but it is fantastic for hard-packed, gravely, and rooty types of trails.

Nike nike air max gray black kids clothes line vs. Trail 3: a major overhaul

With all the changes introduced in the Trail 4, it is almost a new shoe from the ground up. Here are the key upgrades:

nike-pegasus-trail-4-outdoor_014.JPG

  • 8% lighter: (295 g vs 320 g)
  • better grip from the new tread design
  • more secure hold with added Flywire cables 
  • less spacious toebox, more like a glove
  • $10 increase in the price
  • more toned-down visual design

nike-pegasus-trail-4_001.JPG

Despite the slight $10 increase in its asking price compared to the Trail 3, we still consider the nike air max gray black kids clothes line a reasonably priced one at $140.

For reference, the average price of trail shoes is $147. But, if we are talking about the max-cushioned, super grippy ones ($170 on average), then $140 is hitting the bull’s eye.
