How does heel drop affect running?
The higher the drop i.e. 10mm+, this is suited better for runners who land on their heel (heel strikers) to give them more cushioning and shock absorption and protection of the Achilles tendon area. The lower the drop, the flatter the shoe. The higher the drop, the more built up the shoe is.
What’s the difference between Pegasus 35 and 36?
The Pegasus 36 is built on the same midsole as the 35, so there’s no difference in the ride character. If you sense that there’s a difference, that’s probably because you are comparing a worn-in Pegasus 35 with a fresh-out-of-the-box 36. The upper is where you’ll find some changes.
Is low heel drop good?
A low heel drop encourages a midfoot or forefoot strike. The result is a more stable landing platform, along with better balance and muscle engagement. This beneficial biomechanical shift is a big appeal of barefoot and minimalist shoes.
Does heel drop really matter?

No Zoom Air unit as on the Terra Kiger or the ‘regular’ Pegasus for the road. The sole is 31 mm thick under the heel and 21 mm under the toes. Therefore, the drop is 10 mm, which is relatively standard and works well for most people.
Does the Pegasus Trail 3 have a rock plate?
The Pegasus Trail 3 doesn’t have a rock plate, but as we’ll see in the grip section, you probably won’t need one as it’s not a shoe for highly technical rocky terrains.
