Different brands — charts and lasts both matter. Pegasus 41 is labeled True to Size (True to size; use Wide/Extra Wide rather than length-up). Clifton 9 is True to Size (True to size).
Nike Pegasus 41 fits true to size in length as Nike’s everyday trainer. The toebox tapers, so wide feet should use Nike’s Wide/Extra Wide options — sizing up in length often adds heel slip without fixing forefoot pinch.
Hoka Clifton 9 is a true-to-size daily trainer for most runners. It can feel a touch snugger than Bondi in the forefoot; use Hoka wide if needed. Length tricks are rarely required when width is chosen correctly.
Use the table below as a starting point from fit offsets — then confirm with try-on or returns. Width can matter more than length between these two.
