Anyone have a lead on good shoes to replace the Pegasus 30s?

The Pegasus 30 actually had a listed drop of 13mm. The heel is so soft though this drop was definitely static which made it seem lower.

The Nike zoom winflo 4 is basically a Pegasus 34 without forefoot zoom. It has the similar tooling msrp@$90-

Thanks for the tips!

Regarding drop, I use the Zoom Streak LTs for workouts but I don't need a racing flat for my easy days. So I'm flexible there. But the Pegasus 30 has worked well for me.

I still highly recommend the 33s. You might be feeling the cushion more now because your 4500 miles on the 30s wore them out?

Possibly. They also didn't have the 33s in the exact size I wear -- only half a size up or down -- so I didn't get a feel for them as well as the 34s. Maybe I'll give them another shot.

Hoka clayton 2. Moved from pegs to clifton and clayton. Rockstar shoes but $$$. And no 5000 miles

Agree with your sentiment about the 33. Don't prefer the zoom air pad in the forefoot.

Based on a tryon, the 34 seems much more flexible in the forefoot, albeit with less overall cushioning. See if you can locate a pair of 32s, less cushioning in and more flexibility in the forefoot.

Saucony Ride may also be similar to the 30s.

Also I do have the pegs 33 and those with the LT3s I am a size up which feels like I can have more foot function, with moderate lace pressure I don't slip forward.

Zoom Winflo 4 I am at my usual size

Any Adidas shoes similar to this?

Oh and 22

Thanks, I'll probably try it on at the store to make sure though.

Age is 34 (this is the OP, slightly different gibberish name). I like to minimize the hassle in my life and I don't like shopping.

I've put 4500 miles on two pairs of Pegasus 30s and they're finally starting to fall apart. I tried some 33s and 34s and they both feel like like they have cushions in the forefoot, which restricts my stride a bit and I hate it.

I also tried the latest DS Trainers for something basic and lightweight, but after a couple miles got a pretty bad blister on the side of my heel (from the shape/size of the heel cup I guess).

I'm looking for something simple without too much cushioning and without a huge drop from heel to forefoot.

Altra One 2.5. Say no more.

By the way it's 4500 miles on 2 pairs so 2500/pair :)

2250, whatever, I can't math right now.

Not even kidding. The Altra One 2.5 is cheap (relatively), zero-drop, just enough cushioning, and extremely light. You'll never go back.
