# Mesh Waterproof Stable Sneakers Nike Introduces The Zoom Pegasus 36 Trail Once Again This Year By Amy Duong | Published 2019-06-04 | Fashion Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/zoom-pegasus-36-trail References: [highsnobiety](https://www.highsnobiety.com/p/nike-air-zoom-pegasus-36-trail-release-date-info/) & [nike](https://www.nike.com/) Nike originally launched the first Pegasus Trail sneakers in the 2000s and it arrives once again in the form of the 'Zoom Pegasus 36 Trail.' The design is centered around performance functionality in outdoor environments, specifically tackling day-to-day training purposes and readily prepared for trails as well. The Zoom Pegasus 36 Trail retains some of the original elements, with new components to elevate the design. The uppers are entirely constructed from mesh materials and the skins are found at the forefoot and the heel, which are engineered to protect again abrasion. The strong durability of the sneaker does not disrupt the lightweight design that is both comfortable and snug. Additional details include the large and reinforced lugs at the top for added traction and a widened heel net and forefoot for stability. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 5.2/10 - Popularity: 77% | Activity: 71% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Gen Z, Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, South America, Europe, Asia, Africa ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Fashion](https://www.trendhunter.com/fashion) > [Shoes](https://www.trendhunter.com/shoes) ## Key Themes ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **Performance-functionality Outdoor Sneakers:** Opportunity for developing sneakers that combine performance functionality with durability and lightweight design for outdoor environments. - **Mesh Material Construction:** Opportunity to create products with mesh materials that offer breathability, flexibility, and protection against abrasion. - **Enhanced Traction and Stability Features:** Opportunity for incorporating features such as reinforced lugs and widened heel net and forefoot to provide improved traction and stability in outdoor activities. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Athletic Footwear:** Disruptive innovation potential in the athletic footwear industry to develop sneakers specifically designed for outdoor training and trail running. - **Outdoor Gear and Equipment:** Opportunity for companies in the outdoor gear and equipment industry to create products that offer optimal performance and protection in outdoor environments. - **Sports Technology:** Potential for disruptive innovation in the sports technology industry by integrating advanced materials and features into athletic footwear for enhanced performance and safety. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Versatile Cushioning Sneakers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/nike-pegasus-premium.md) - [Lightweight Breathable Running Shoes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pegasus-41-blueprint.md) - [Metallic-Tinged Premium Sneakers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pegasus-premium-sneaker.md) - [High-Mileage Off-Grid Trail Sneakers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/nike-zegama-2.md) - [Premium Air-Tech Cushioned Runners](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pegasus-premium.md) - [Toggle Securement Running Shoes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/nike-pegasus-easyon-blueprint.md) - [Icy-Inspired Textural Golf Sneakers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/air-pegasus-89-g.md) - [Inclement Weather Training Sneakers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/nike-juniper-trail-2-goretex.md) - [Dynamic Retro Running Shoes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/air-pegasus-2005.md)
