Minnesota Vikings Pegasus 41 Nike Men's NFL Road Running Shoes in Purple | IB3188-500
Overview
The Nike Pegasus 41 Men's NFL Road Running Shoe (IB3188-500) in Minnesota Vikings purple blends everyday running performance with team-focused styling. Built for runners who want a lively, responsive ride for daily miles, the shoe pairs new ReactX foam with dual Air Zoom units in the forefoot and heel to deliver springy energy return without feeling overly stiff. An improved engineered mesh upper reduces weight and boosts breathability, while a waffle-inspired rubber outsole gives predictable traction on pavement. Plush padding at the collar, tongue and sockliner keeps the fit comfortable for long wear. It's ideal for fans who want on-course performance and off-course team pride — from treadmill tempos to neighborhood runs and casual wear.
