In 2018, the Nike engineering team made significant enhancements to the popular Pegasus running line, resulting in the impressive Nike Air Zoom Pegasus 35 'Blue Orbit.' These improvements, influenced by elite distance runner Mo Farrah, include the outward-turning collar to prevent Achilles irritation and the incorporation of full-length Nike Zoom cushioning on the outsole. The innovative cushioning design takes inspiration from the supportive carbon plate found in the Nike Zoom Vaporfly 4%. Overall, these advancements offer runners a more comfortable and supportive experience.
