Die-hard runners are going to get their daily miles in no matter how inclement the conditions may become, but now they can keep their feet warm and dry on even the most menacing fall and winter days with Nike‘s brand-new Pegasus Turbo Shield.

A beefed-up version of the ultra-fast and tremendously popular Pegasus Turbo, the Shield retains the sleek midsole shape and responsive ZoomX cushioning of its counterpart, but ramps up the top half in both height and materials. A two-piece black and purple waterproof shroud covers the entirety of the upper, and is secured by an asymmetrical zipper with taped seams. The collar is raised well above the ankle, and features a Velcro strap to ensure that no moisture seeps in from the top either. Beefy heel tabs provide an easy on/off fit, and technical branding as well as bold volt accents complete the look.

The Pegasus Turbo Shield will release on October 17 at retailers like Sneakersnstuff. The MSRP is set at $210 USD.
