I'm finding my pegasus 30s a bit clumpy. I've used previous versions without a problem but these just don't feel right. Does anyone know which nike shoe (cushioned/neutral) has the next level down in cushioning, and is therefore a bit lighter.
I've tried to research this on the nike website and on various online running shoe retailers, but it isn't clear to me.
Cheers

Nike Zoom Elite 6 is the lighter neutral shoe. I've got the 5 and done over 450 miles in them. Initially bought as a marathon shoe, but use it for general training now.
Lots of other decent lightweight trainers from other companies as well

Vomero, I'd guess. Always seemed slightly lighter in store to me than Pegasus (I never ran in Pegasus, but had 2-3 pairs of Vomero a few years back).

Ah well, maybe they only *seemed* lighter. They were certainly nice, anyway.

Think I remember reading that the Peg 31 was a bit lighter than the 30, so you may may not have been imagining it Paul

Nike Free would be my suggestion

Don't discount the Pegasus - the new model 31 has had quite a few changes from the 30 I believe, so may be worth a try on.

Beware the Vomero is for high arch.
I'm a Pegasus 30 fan. Need a new pair, I'm undecided over Pegasus 31 or Free 5.0 because I like the way the Terra Keiger feels and fits, and apparently the TK was based on the 5.0 ?
