According to Nike, this is because female testers generally prefer a softer ride. Unusually, there’s a significant difference between the men’s and women’s version: the Air Zoom bag in the front is filled to a pressure of around 20PSI for the men’s shoe and 15PSI for the women’s.
Nike Air Zoom Pegasus 36 Running Shoe Review. The Best Nike Running Shoes For Every Type Of Runner. I found it a great shoe to use on light trails in the forest near me, during the summer at least. There’s a lot of rubber on the outsole of the shoe, which no doubt increases its weight but also means it’s likely to be durable and can cope with a variety of terrain. The shoe was true to size, with no rubbing around the toe box or slippage at the heel. The upper is a standard mesh job which I found comfortable and secure, and it’s breathable too. My UK size 9 Pegasus 37 weighs 287g compared with 271g for the 36, but the 37 definitely feels lighter when running thanks to the responsive cushioning underfoot. I found it better on that front than the Pegasus 36, even though it’s heavier. If you’re hitting the track or doing intervals regularly then a separate shoe for dedicated speed work would be beneficial, but the Pegasus 37 is good for tempo efforts and long progression runs finishing at a decent lick. The Pegasus 37 can certainly handle the speedy stuff in your training, though. 
It would make a great half marathon or marathon shoe for most runners, though naturally falls well short of the performance of a dedicated racer like Nike’s Alphafly or the Saucony Endorphin Pro.
It’s not excessively soft or plush – just a comfortable shoe. The Pegasus 37 was particularly fun to run far in, especially at an easy to steady pace. That ride is improved by the Air Zoom bag in the forefoot, which livens up each stride and provides a bit more pop in your toe-off that you don’t get from shoes with just React foam.
