The Nike Pegasus Premium has become the face of their refocused running division in multiple senses. Yes, it’s the first to market, and perhaps relatedly, the most common sight you’ll see out of the three-column, three-family setup. However, it also represents the tech-forward, maximalist bend across the rethought Vomero, Pegasus, and Structure lines, helping bring the beating heart of Beaverton into a new era.

With that qualifier, perhaps the Nike Pegasus Premium “Volt/Sapphire” is a perfect visual representation. The “Volt” shade that brought massive attention to silhouettes like the Flyknit Racer in 2012 has already gotten plenty of love on its Zoom Air torchbearer. Where the Premium takes things a step further is by mixing up an aquatic gradient within its chunky sole, shifting to cerulean shades underfoot and allowing a creative interpretation of one of Nike Running’s hallmark moments.

The Nike Pegasus Premium in “Volt/Sapphire” has already started populating overseas retail channels. Expect a wide launch via official Nike stores, both digital and physical, in short order. The usual $220 sticker price is likely.
