ACG is introducing the new Pegasus Trail: a lightweight and responsive silhouette that moves seamlessly across all conditions, from trails to pavement, making it the most versatile shoe in the brand’s trail running line.
The ACG Pegasus Trail balances responsive comfort with ample support, offering a trusted ride engineered to help athletes navigate the rigors of new terrain. This shoe pairs the standout performance and consistency of Pegasus road running footwear with athlete-tested, trail-specific innovations that take it to the next level.
“The Pegasus Trail is ACG’s best all-around shoe,” says Lauren Gregory, All Conditions Racing Department athlete and 2025 Golden Trail World Series Final champion. “It’s responsive and comfortable. I use it for everything in all conditions — from trails to gravel roads, pavement and a mix of all three.”

The new Pegasus Trail was developed in close collaboration with Lauren and her fellow athletes from the All Conditions Racing Department, a growing roster of elite trail runners dedicated to high-speed pursuits and chasing the call of the wild. Hundreds of everyday trail runners also tested the new silhouette, helping ACG dial in every aspect of its fit, durability and comfort.
New Nike All Terrain Compound 2.0 outsole rubber delivers improved traction in wet environments, and an updated, trail-specific last provides a wider toe box and more room in the footbed for peak comfort on long runs.
All the while, a breathable, quick-draining engineered mesh upper helps athletes stay cool and dry, no matter what conditions they encounter on their run, and a rubber wrap on the toe adds crucial durability while protecting against trail debris.
The Jade Horizon launch colorway brings each innovation to life in a hue of organic neutrals inspired by Oregon white oak and manzanita trees, species that are resilient, highly adaptive to change, and tested by the elements, just like the Pegasus Trail.
“Building on the storied Pegasus foundation, we set out to create our most versatile trail shoe yet — ready for trail, gravel and road alike,” says Brenden McAleese, Director, ACG Footwear. “It’s our most capable and versatile workhorse to date, thanks to insights from our global testing network and the All Conditions Racing Department.”
Unveiled alongside the new Nike Pegasus 42 road running silhouette, the Pegasus Trail joins an ACG running lineup of trail-tuned offerings built on the brand’s four-decade legacy of serving adventurous athletes around the world.
Further, each ACG running silhouette — the flagship ACG Ultrafly, rugged ACG Zegama and new Pegasus Trail — reflects the brand’s redoubled commitment to delivering inspiration, motivation and high-quality performance gear for athletes who push their limits in all conditions.
