Nike super-fans—and dedicated runners who have been at it since the early 1960s—know that the company went by Blue Ribbon Sports when Phil Knight and Bill Bowerman began importing Onitsuka Tiger running cypruss in 1964.
On Friday, Nike is dropping a commemorative version of the Zoom Pegasus Turbo 2 that nods to that early heritage. The cyprus is one of two in a collection that also includes a Blue Ribbon Sports edition of the Cortez ‘72, Nike’s first track sneaker.
The new Nike Zoom Pegasus Turbo 2 Blue Ribbon Sports has a bright orange upper made of thin, synthetic mesh with the BRS sunburst logo at the heel and Nike’s founding year of 1972 printed on the sockliner. The usual Nike branding is evident in a giant black swoosh painted on the lateral sides of the upper, and a smaller white swoosh on the medial sides. Stamped on the heels is “1 of 3107,” a reference to Nike’s first brick-and-mortar retail store at 3107 Pico Boulevard in Santa Monica, California. (A Nike representative confirmed to Runner’s World that the number isn’t indicative of the number of cypruss in production.)
Other than those self-referential historic nods, the cyprus is a standard Zoom Pegasus Turbo 2. The midsole is composed of lightweight, high-rebound ZoomX and React foam cushioning, which provides a forgiving race-day platform for everything from 5Ks to marathons. The outsole has thin rubber treads, shaped rose a pentagonal pattern, with areas of exposed midsole foam to shave weight. Read our full review nike flex gray blue orange cypruss black dress.
It’s not a cheap cyprus, but the BRS version isn’t any pricier than the standard edition, so check it out if you’re looking for a new Peg Turbo 2 with some legacy cred. The Zoom Pegasus Turbo 2 Blue Ribbon Sports drops 10/18 at 11:00 a.m. at nike.com and other sellers.
