Hi guys! I might get a new pair of trainers on black Friday and am debating between these two. Can you help me out?

Haven't ran in the 11's-did try them on/walk around in them but ultimately chose the 33's and really like them. I have ran in Pegasus since 2008 so maybe I'm a bit bias. To me, the vomero were a bit more cushy/heavier while the Pegasus lighter and more responsive. Depends on what you like. I run ~50-60 miles a week in the Pegasus and they feel great, however by ~300 miles, can feel them starting to wear down.
Thank you!
I can't speak to those specific versions, but I am a long time Vomero wearer. Last year I switched to the Pegasus and within a few months I had developed a bad case of plantar fasciitis in both feet. After several months of suffering and trying everything under the sun to make it go away, I switched back to the Vomero and the pain immediately started to go away. It has been about 6 months since I last wore a Pegasus. The pain is 97% gone. I'm not sure that the last 3% will ever go away. There is a knot/nodule deep in my heel that my orthopedist says is likely permanent. The Pegasus is definitely a faster shoe but it also has much less cushioning than the Vomero and by comparison feels rock hard. If you are just looking for a trainer I would err on the side of caution and get the Vomero.
Thank you! I'll take this into consideration greatly.
Alright, so interestingly enough the shoes aren't that different.
Despite having quite a bit of cushioning in both the heel and forefoot, the vomero is a pretty stiff shoe. Similarly, the Peg 33's big update was the addition to a Zoom Air system to the forefoot making it a bit stiffer and definitely pretty responsive for how much shoe is under you (but not nearly as much as the vomero). The Rides will be relatively similar but the Peg you have a little bit less under you with a little more pop versus the Vomero where you get a bit more shoe under you. I personally prefer the Peg.
So the Pegasus would be more responsive?
Ran in these: http://amzn.to/2flnz59 for a while and they felt peppy and fresh. Maybe not for everyone but if you aren't rocking some crazy weird gait it is probably good to go.
yeah for sure
