I purchased a pair of Nike Perseus oh about a month or so ago...not too long ago.. I have put maybe 150 miles on them, and the right shoes air pocket blew out. I was just wondering if you can send them back, because you would think they would have lasted longer...any info would be great.
i've heard that if the air pocket blows then Nike will replace the shoe.
...or you could go to nike.com and look for a customer care phone number and ask them.
The store you bought them from should be able to take care of you right away since an air pocket blowing out is obviously a defect. Unless you got shot by a crossbow or something :-) Yet another reason to support your local running shoe specialist.
Hey thanks for the input..I am going to try to take them back to the store, but if they deny me, I will call nike and give them a piece of what I think of the shoe.Thanks for all the replies.

Dude, why don't you go back to the shop you bought them and inquire there before asking for advice on the internet. Most of your recent post have been questions that could have been easily answered at your local running shop.
P.S. the perseus sucks.
Dude! you don't know where I'm from at all... I live in the southwest part of Missouri, and the shoe outfitters around here are pretty slim. The only place I can go is Kansas City (3 hours away) St. Louis (6 hours away) or Tulsa (2 hours away). So it was much easier askin people who have dealt with the situations.
You can probably take the shoe to where you bought it, if they won't take it go to the Nike website. There you fill out a form and send the shoes back. I have sent several pairs back due to popped air and they replaced all of them.
If you live in Southwest Missouri, I assume that Springfield, Missouri is quite close to where you are located. So, I did a google search for speciality running stores in that area and found a few. Here is one that seemed legitimate (Just For Feet was also listed):

The guy asked for advice about a running-related problem on a running message board. The audacity! Let's all jump on him for it. Sure, he could be a little more self-reliant, but he was in a situation where he didn't know what to do, so he asked some people who he thought would. God, it would be really nice if people on this board would be less critical and just share their advice. But then I guess it wouldn't be letsrun
