Great honest no BS reviews thanks a lot for keeping it real 👏 I like walking around in the Juniper 2 Trail and Pegasus 3 as they have a nice wide toe area, lots of heel and sole padding and there is no pronation wearing them. Juniper 2 is a hard sole but walking in them is fine, great looking shoes 👍
I haven't touched Nike since pounding the Terra Kiger 5 in the ground, but the Wildhorse reminds me a little bit of that shoe. The traction wasn't the greatest, but the outsole and upper stood up to more miles than anything owned since. It might finally be time to put my faith in Nike again.
@@jah-leah gtx is good for rain for every day wear but not for running on trails. It's slippery tho not as bad as zegama. I'm looking at zegama 2 now that has updated sole with vibram rubber.
@@josips4281 yeah I would have occasional trails. past couple of years i've lived in porto (rainy and hilly roads), london summers (light trails occasional rain) and now faial in the Azores (very hilly and rain at a moment's notice). Not a big runner but i like to do a couple of miles on the road and maybe walk a lot. Just need a good amount of comfort/ breathability (and affordable). Any recs appreciated and Thanks for the prompt reply!!
Nice video Ben. From nearly all the reviews i've seen on the Kiger 9's, the drop is 3mm not 6mm although it is confusing as i can't seem to find anything official from Nike
@@SergiuSalcau00 I used the previous iteration of the Pegasus which I loved as I'm a heavier runner, used them on TP100 which is predominantly tarmac but there are gravel and grassy sections...
Just a heads up, the Nike wih best traction in my eyes were the AirMax 2015 model. The thread had studs on front, sort of like squares made of medium-hard rubber, but gripped so hard I could climb up 40-45 degree diagonal made of bricks. That model was crazy and one of, if not, the best Nike I've ever had.
Have the Peg 4s, and love them for easy (trail) runs. Got the Wildhorse 8s yesterday & did 13m in them today. Thought they were great, surprisingly! Very similar to Saucony's Xodus Ultra. The React foam is a little softer (only just), but is a little heavier.
As a person who got the Gore-Tex version of the Nike Pegasus Trail 4, its an extra 20 dollars. Go with the non Gore-Tex version if you aren't going to go in much mud. Its just extra weight, price and not breathable. But besides that it was nice a comfortable.
Thanks Ben and Sarah, I really value your reviews. I've never fathomed out the different Nike trail range. I've had a couple of pairs of Terra Kiger's which I love but the grip soon wears out. Gonna try the Wildhorse next time. Keep up the good work.
I ran all winter in the Zegama and had no troubles at all. We got a lot of snow here this last winter and the roads were not great (poor snow removal😢). I found them very easy to maneuver and lived up to my expectations. I would buy another pair of Zegamas because they react just like some of my other road shoes. Now to test them in the back country trails......
I got the Wildhorse 8 and I'm super happy with it! It's not quite as soft, but it's replaced the Speedgoat 5 as my go-to shoe. On the wetter, softer trails where I live I just don't trust in Peg trail, but the Wildhorse 8 hasn't let me down yet. I also just got a pair of Kiger 9s for those days where I need a light, nimble shoe. Super stoked about Nike's 2023 Trail line up!
How come you dropped the Speedgoat, out of interest? I'd imagine the durability of the Wildhorse soles will be significantly less, like all Nike soles.
@Daniel Konecny It would be interesting to see how they compare to the likes of the Speedgoats and Inov-8s that wear very slowly and can last several hundred miles. It's Nike though, so I doubt it. I love their trail shoes just for walking - have the Peg Trail 3 and Terra Kiger 8 and while they are super comfortable, they are not great at outsole durability. I guess let's see how people find this newer generation.
@@atheosmachina j ai fais exactement la meme chose , j avais comme chaussure prefferrée les speedgoat , et apres 300 km dans les WH8 je peus dire qu elle ont remplacé celle ci haut la main , meilleure stabilitée , meilleur acroche digne de vibram , une premiere chez nike , et durabilitée de la semelle qui enterre la concurrence , plus de place a l avant pied comme chez altra , et je n ais plus cette sensation de courir avec des grosses chaussure aux pieds ; et pour le prix ......130 euros , ce qui est bien plus bas que toute la concurrence , et j ai reussi a payer les mienne 93 euros !!!
I like the Zegama, really comfortable with their ZoomX. Just wished it had the same grip as the Wildhorse 8 it would be perfect! Also use the Peg Trail 4 GTX as a regular, all round trail training shoe.
Thanks Ben! Great video! really stuck between the Zegama and Pegasus, I'm doing the New Forest Marathon in September which is a combination of road and shingle trails, I cant decide what would be best!
I don't do too much trail running, tried the Peg Trail 3 but were rubbish in the wet. Now just wear them as a casual shoe. Picked up a pair of Salomon Ultra Glide's and they felt so much better and a lot more grip and confidence. So, which one are you using for Comrades?
I have the Hoka Challenger ATR. They're fantastic for road/trail and I haven't found better. Really comfy, quite fun. Mine last 700km+. I've used them for 50 mile ultras with no issues. Grip not so good in mud but that's the compromise really. Hoka Speedgoat are still surprisingly comfortable on the road but better grip off. I haven't worn them for anything longer than half marathon though. Another option for road/trail if dry is just wearing (older or cheaper) road shoes. My Brooks Ghost have a decent hard-wearing outsole so perform fine on dry trails.
I'm hoping the Wildhorse 8 is the first chapter of the new Nike trail. Ive already put 100 miles on my pair including a 50 miler after a week of owning them. They drained great through two thunderstorms even hail and wind.
en effet , il faut absolument qu ils mettent cette gomme sur tous les models de la gamme , elle accroche si bien , et sur absolument toutes les surfaces
Hello, Nike Invincible 3 or Hoka Clifton 9 for daily use? Or which other brand should I choose? The most important thing for me is that it is very comfortable and soft. Or Puma MB.02 jade
Zegama has been fast and comfortable. High stack height but foot sits in midsole more than on top of it. Plus shoe midsole flares out at ball of foot aiding stability. I’ve used in ultras and worked great but I wouldn’t use if majority of course was rocky. On the lower volume side but widish toe box.
You couldn’t have timed this any better. I just got the Zegama after using the Peg 4 GTX for dog walking duties. And I’ve just ordered the Wildhorse 8. Never considered Nike before based on the proliferation of bad reviews - but maybe 2023 is their year?
@@RaymondBooth-l3w I love it. The toe box is just a tad shallow but it’s fine. The midsole is so soft and comfy, and the upper is super comfortable too. Outsole is supposed to be better than the standard 4. And walking around in these shoes made me start looking at the Zegama and Wildhorse. I have fairly wide feet and so far the uppers of the Peg 4 GTX and Zegama are some the most comfortable uppers I’ve had.
I really liked this review, and I don't do any trail running at all. But maybe I should. The thing is, I swore off all non-leather shoes a while ago for comfort, breathability and foot health reasons, so these shoes in the review aren't my cup of tea - but again, I enjoyed the review and it made me think.
any update on the wildhorse?how soft is it compared to zegamas?which one would u recommend personally?i think heel drop is a little too low in it if we are used to 8mm drops?does it make a big difference in ur opinion bro?
@@NoName-cz5mg Hi there. I have done about 100km on my Wildhorses and I really like them. The cushion is excellent and responsive (they are super comfy), the grip is impressive. Overall it is a wonderful show. Both shoes have a place in my rotation. For long, non technical runs, the Zegamas are tough to beat but if it gets a bit technical and mountainous, the Wildhorse shines. Both are excellent for long days on the trails. I didnt find any issue on the drop. I came from higher drop shoes and have had no problems. Hope that helps
@@martinhartslief5092 Thanks so u would recommend wild horses for short runs and zegamas for long runs?have u tried walking on pavement with these?even for like a little while?how did that feel?
@@martinhartslief5092 hmm i see thanks :) bro can u tell me how they are on pavement?i mean u might have walked a little bit on pavement also with em i suppose or nope?also how good would it be for forefoot and mid strikers in ur opinion?
I’ll have to try the KT’s, the Wildhorse was absolutely frightening in tech downhills in boulder. Could never get lockdown. Easier downhills with less rock was ok. Compared to Vibram mega grip, they are slippery. I really feel like Nike is just still dipping their feet in and not really diving in. They have all of the technology, the distribution to make some really great trail shoes and here over a year they just always get something wrong. Like mentioned, they really need a partner with vibram. That mega grip is worth spending an extra $30 on a shoe. Absolute confidence and dry and wet conditions.
I really like the Nike trail shoes and have been using them for a long time. I've had pretty much every version of the Wildhorse and Tiger. The fit is so good for my feet and the React foam is one of my favorites. Soft, bouncy and responsive. For me much better than for example Hoka. Yes the grip is not outstanding, but often made worse than it is. Just don't use them when its very wet or muddy. This has changed with the WH8 that has a very good grip. I sold the Zegama after a couple of runs. The ZoomX midsole was terrible and the fit the same. Way to firm and hard and the fit was not at alle the same as WH or Kiger. A very different fit. I disagree on the build quality. I simply can't recall that any of my many Nike trail shoes have worn out prematurely, actually the opposite is more the case.
pareil pour moi , ma chaussure de trail prefferrée est la Terra kiger 7 et 8 , la zegama etant une deception , mais cette WH8 est pour moi la meilleure chaussure de trail du marché , elle combine absolument tout , une stabilitée sans faille , un amorti doux et protecteur qui ne s affaise pas au fil des km , de la place a l avant pied , encore plus present que sur les TK 7 et 8 , un tres bon maintient du pied , et ENFIN , une semelle qui accroche en toutes circonstance , et c est ce que j attendais d une entreprise comme Nike , et avec cette semelle exterieur , je peus dirte qu ils sont arrivé au meme niveau que vibram .
Love Kiger9 its better than K8, Wildhorse8 also much beter than W7, finally a good shoe & Zegama ZoomX is blessing on my feet, but ZoomX should be with 8mm or 6mm drop not 4mm. So I wait for July release of ZoomX Ultrafly this will be the greatest of them all with zoomx 8mm drop but with too small lugs 😂 Do not like PegT4 its 10mm drop makes me heel strike to hard. 😕 ps. Good video Ben 👍
@@RowOfMushyTiT not much videos on Kiger9 on yt. Did not test K9 on wet terrain yet, but to me feels better outsole with better arrow formed box shapped lugs, better grip than K8 for sure. Wildhorse8 I tested on wet and muddy terrain and Wh8 is real good. Both have similar lugs so think K9 will be ok, but beleave problem is still in lug boxy form, they need to be arrow shaped for good grip on wet terrain.
Informative as always. 😊. I’ve never really considered Nike for trail options, I tried the Saucony ride 15 TR in the winter and didn’t get much use, guessing similar to the Peg trail. I would otherwise go to Salomon for a trail shoe, the S Lab pulsar is incredible and lightest shoe I’ll likely own - I have the SG version for XC, Innov8 the next choice for me.
AWESOME video Ben. The Wildhorse looks intriguing. I tend to prefer more minimal trail shoes. My favourites are from VJ or NVII. Have you tried VJ? I'd recommend the model VJ Spark!
Bro, where u take drop info from? Nike stoped to disclose it some time ago..for all shoes ( as*holes, right? Its its critical info for all runners)... i understand that they cant guarantee drop, due to poor quality control ...lol
@@BenParkes they have contradictional info, like runrepeat put 9.5 mm drop for some 10 mm nikes etc...also i remember previous terra kiger always had 4 mm drop...so i doubt they have 6 mm now....
Best Nike trail shoe? None. Just look at Zegama-Aizkorri today. You could definitely tell which athletes were wearing Nikes in those bad weather conditions.
Maybe your heel slip issues come from wearing shoes that are a little too big. Having watched the entire video and seen the shoes on your feet, I'd definitely suggest a half size smaller. The shoes look too roomy for you.
If you had cleaned your shoes you wouldn't have dirt on your desk. Also, when running on trails you might step on animal droppings. Not so nice to have on your hands.. Just saying
It’s ironic that Nike’s road shoes have much better grip than their trail shoes. Still glad that a big name like Ben Parkes is reviewing them.
Do you think the Wildhorse 8 is okay for tarmac? I would like one pair for both road and trail. Thank you.
I just bought the Pegasus and put 45km into them this weekend. Really nice for non technical trails!
I have 2 pairs of the Pegasus trail 4. With and without gore tex. it just works well for the areas I run which is very mixed with stretches of road.
Are you familiar with the weather in Porto? which could work for runny, hilly road runnin?
@@jah-leahPegasus trail 4 is a safe bet
Great honest no BS reviews thanks a lot for keeping it real 👏 I like walking around in the Juniper 2 Trail and Pegasus 3 as they have a nice wide toe area, lots of heel and sole padding and there is no pronation wearing them.

Which of these would be best for daily training mostly running on road?
I agree very much with you on Juniper. I tried them in stores and the foam is just hard with no bounce.
I'm in love with peg 4 trail.. I've purchased regular and gtx. It's great for every day wear as well as for light road to trail runs.

Is Wildhorse 8 more cushion & bouncy then Challenger ATR 7 or Speedgoat 5?
Nice review. Just bought the wildhorse 8 on big discount (approx £59 on conversion)
Thank you for this shoe review. Navigating through the Nike trail running shoe line-up is difficult (Did they really need to create 5 pairs?)
Which shoe is best for legit hiking on some hilly dirt trails. Looking for something comfortable
Love the Zegama been through two pairs already I actually think it’s ok on wet muddy trails and we had plenty of that in Southern California this year
Nice video Ben. From nearly all the reviews i've seen on the Kiger 9's, the drop is 3mm not 6mm although it is confusing as i can't seem to find anything official from Nike
I just use the Peg 39 for light trails. Great outsole on that.

I agree the sole smooths out so quickly and it’s such a shame cause it’s such a great shoe

No pegasus react trail 4 gtx? The softest react foam I wore.

Great video you should do this for Inov-8, the best trail shoes there are 😉
Second this, though I don't want to think about how expensive it would be to get one of each shoe in their lineup
Yes. This video cost £600 in shoes. Expensive to make.. hopefully it pays off in the long run.
Absolutely love my kiger 7 but time for a new pair of kiger 9s I think. Hopefully they are a similar fit.
Which one is better for trail walking?

juniper trail 2 nice..
Best is juniper for 89€ others are oved 100
Terra Kiger for life!
Do you have sub 2 shirts? 😁
Haha.. not yet!
Watching from India 🇮🇳
pls do nike trail 5
Pegasus 4 Gore-Tex is a much better shoe. Different toe box and softer on heal catch.
Bro, where u take drop info from? Nike stoped to disclose it some time ago..for all shoes ( as*holes, right? Its its critical info for all runners)... i understand that they cant guarantee drop, due to poor quality control ...lol
We usually get it from sites such as sports shoes, pro direct running etc. Other retailers basically.
@@BenParkes they have contradictional info, like runrepeat put 9.5 mm drop for some 10 mm nikes etc...also i remember previous terra kiger always had 4 mm drop...so i doubt they have 6 mm now....
As I looked at the shoes in the thumbnail it occurred to me that feet aren’t shaped that way.
great!
Indonesia love running trail 🇮🇩☮💚🌏👍
I need a sub-2 shirt
Best Nike trail shoe? None. Just look at Zegama-Aizkorri today. You could definitely tell which athletes were wearing Nikes in those bad weather conditions.
Well I tripped on a tree root. Don’t think that was the shoes fault!
I haven’t watched it yet.. will catch the highlights today 🙂
Seems they all lack decent grip? Especially in wet conditions which makes none of them a great choice IMHO.
The grip on the wildhorse 8 was strong in all the tests we did.
Maybe your heel slip issues come from wearing shoes that are a little too big. Having watched the entire video and seen the shoes on your feet, I'd definitely suggest a half size smaller. The shoes look too roomy for you.
👏👏👏
Will you tell very interesting story about shoes ?
Not sure about your Sub 4 t-shirt. To me that would imply you’ve run a sub four minute mile rather than a sub four hour marathon.
It can mean whatever you want it to mean I guess!
If you had cleaned your shoes you wouldn't have dirt on your desk. Also, when running on trails you might step on animal droppings. Not so nice to have on your hands.. Just saying
L im rubber dakalplug
1st 😝
I own the wild horse, they look great, but are absolute Ass for stability, and foot control.
I distrust the technical opinion of anyone who doesn't know which way a cap should be worn. Indoors.
Absolutely nothing beats Salomon on trail - other are gimmick rubbish
I think Hoka and inov8 amongst others would disagree! 😀
