Though the Nike Zoom Vomero 5 has overtaken it in sheer volume, the Nike Air Pegasus 2k5 is as good an exemplar of Y2K style as you’ll find in the Nike catalog. So much so, Beaverton has already spun the model off just a year into its retro run with the Pegasus Wave, but there’s plenty of mainline drops that’ve captured our attention. Case in point, this “Vintage Green” edition that just landed on Nike.com, a sensible fit as we move into the bulk of autumn.
Delivering similar aesthetics as the recent “Light Blue” colorway we covered, pure leather overlays and weaving strips of jet black in between keep this in the “Panda” canon so unmistakable in the modern sneaker canon. “Vintage Green” on the mesh foundation and poking through with a metallic Swoosh ensure some sprightly accents on top as well as delivering some seasonal attire as we switch over to full Fall wardrobes. Finally, as with all 2K5 pairs, intact full-length Air cushioning ensures that you don’t have sacrifice all-day comfort in the pursuit of style.
The Nike Air Pegasus 2k5 “Vintage Green” is available now via Nike.com in women’s sizing, retailing for $150. Pick up a pair using the direct shopping links listed below under “Where To Buy.”
