I was wearing Pegasus trail 3 goretex but just started wearing these Morrell’s https://preview.redd.it/56l6d6fvjpzf1.jpeg?width=1125&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=2b5b200ef02752853af5b3bb567c73632b39ee4b If anyone is interested in Pegasus trail 3 I have a black/grey pair in size 10 brand new…I’d sell well under retail

I use them as everyday shoes, but they are not really made for everyday shoes imho. Id say the bottom profile is starting to lose after 6 months. I literally have to buy every year a new pair of trail runners. I just wear them 6 months longer just to not feel like i i just buy them for half a year. Also it loses its performance really fast, the bouncing effect is much weaker after a couple of hundreds kms. I still like them, but its not made for lots of kms and OP is looking for shoes for several years. I had the GTX 3,4 and 5. I wish they would make one with better sole, that lasts longer. Running shoes in general have very short lifespan though. They are made for performance not for longevity.

I have these in V3 and find the grip terrible- I slip on a wet pavement let alone wet rocks. I don’t have a better recommendation but cant recommend these unless they improved them

Road—Peg 39 at like 350 miles so getting old, Novablast 5 that I just got and have under 20 miles. Trail- Peg Trail 3 at 250 ish miles and ASICS Trabuco Max 2 at 100 miles I’ve been injured a lot the last 2 years so my shoes are older and don’t have many miles lol

I’ve been using Pegasus Trail 3/4 and just got some 5 and they’ve been great for disc golf. Hold up well to concrete tee pads, but I don’t drag my toes or anything. If you go to a disc golf pro tour event, I would say close to 40% of the pros are wearing Nike. adidas Terrex used to be the clear choice, but is the minority now. Vessi might be the second most common.

I’m a rotation between Nike Trail Peg 3/4s, Mount to Coast T1, Salomon S/lab Genesis.

I get the worse foot camps in my Wild Horses. I love the Speedlands but their current color scheme on the website is terrible. I need a shoe that has good width for the inner part of my arch. I was thinking Norda but reviews have me scared.
