Nike’s Most Stylish Running Shoe Gets to Sit at the “Cool” Kids Table
Nike's Pegasus Premium is already one of the most stylish running shoes on the market. Now, it's officially "cool," thanks to its latest colorway.
For this newest take on the thick running sneaker, Nike blends "Wolf Grey" with classic "Cool Grey" shades to create what's objectively one of the nicest Pegasus Premium shoes yet released.
Grey may be a gloomy color, but on this particular sneaker, it only brings good energy (and good looks). it helps that this Pegasus Premium wears a varied shade of grey that's on the lighter side, contrasted against a lighter sole unit.
We've seen the "Cool Grey" color scheme applied to several Nike and Jordan models over the years, including iconic shoes like the "Cool Grey" Jordan 9s and Air Jordan 11s. It even made Nike SB's snazzy skate shoes even, well, cooler.
Now, Nike's most stylish running model gets the chance to live out the "Cool Grey" lifestyle.
Of course, nothing else has changed besides the outfit. Runners can still count on its ultra-chunky, advanced design that's cushioned to max and wrapped in high-tech mesh while all the rest of us can enjoy the surprisingly stylish silhouette that's brought Nike ever closer to snatching HOKA's thick-soled crown.
Or something like that. Hey, you can't knock Nike for trying.
The Pegasus Premium "Wolf Grey/Cool Grey" sneakers are expected to drop on Nike's website in 2026, which, crazy enough, will be here before we know it.
