Awesomeness!
3 years ago
This is the best shoe I've had in years--I love putting them on and getting outside to the wet Oregon trails! They are trim in all the right places while being spacious in the heel and toebox where they need to be--making them light and quick with terrific grip. They also keep my feet dry even when the mud and water get deep. The materials are top-quality and the construction top-notch. I am a fan!

Witchcraft!

A little background: I run on DC area trails which are rocky, full of roots, and usually pretty muddy. I'm coming from Speedgoat 4s--a great shoe in their own right. These shoes offer Croc-like comfort, amazing fit (perfect on instep and heel and ample room in toe box), and responsive cushioning with great ground-feel. The heel-to-toe transition is like butter--the flexibility in the sole is amazing. I'm totally stoked on these shoes and bummed that I slept on Nikes for as long as I have.

Very comfortable trail shoes!
3 years ago
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I was pleasantly surprised by the comfortability offered from the Air Zoom Terra Kiger 8’s. I live next to a trail that’s partially paved and partially unpaved, and these shoes held up great during my run. I’ve been on my feet quite a bit outside of running, so I was concerned with getting shoes that allowed my feet to stay comfortable throughout my workout, and these shoes did not disappoint. These shoes have the Nike React cushioning that really helps with keeping your feeling feeling fresh throughout your run. They look great on your foot, and I would even use these for various off-trail excursions when vacationing. These pretty much run true to size. I ordered an 11.5 and they fit really nicely.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These shoes are very versatile and can be worn on a trail or on concrete. It has a very simple design but packs a lot of tech and durability for any terrain. Form fitting in the heel and around the ankle, soft cushioning feel in the back and front foot, and very light feel on the upper to keep my feet cool, these can be worn all day. I ran in these, worked out in them and also walked around in them all afternoon and the comfortability didn’t falter. I like how it has Nike React technology and is very responsive. I will bring this shoe with me when I travel due it’s multi-functionality.

Killer Trail Running Shoe
3 years ago
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] When I initially tried them on, I liked that they had a “broken in” feel even though they were new. Very comfortable all around! The toe box was the perfect width for me. Tight enough to be slug and remained agile while still being breathable. The design is great. I liked the utility look they have, while still keeping the elements we consistently love. Also I love a nice neutral color-way. What I like most about them is that I know I can put these shoes on. And run/walk wall day if I wanted, and my feet still didn’t hurt. Lastly, one think I would recommend changing is the design on the upper of the toe box. They serve their purpose for durability, but looks wise I think there could be a better design solution. Thank you!

Running on cloud 9 with the Nike Air Zoom Terra Kiger 8
3 years ago
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] As an avid outdoor runner, finding a running shoe that checks all the boxes, such as comfort, durability, and stability during a long run, can be challenging. The Nike Air Zoom Terra Kiger 8 is a stylish light running shoe constructed of a breathable upper mesh and an air zoom sole accompanied by an aggressive tread pattern that can conquer any trail while delivering extreme comfort with every step. The construction of the Terra Kiger 8 provides adequate padding on the tongue and the shoe's heel, eliminating unwanted hotspots while locking my feet in and allowing all-day wear. The Nike Air Zoom Terra Kiger 8 has become my favorite trail running shoe due to its comfort, durability, and style. I wish there were more than two color options available.

Excellent Trail Running Shoe
3 years ago
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The packaging has a cool design on the box and there is a RV sticker inside. The shoes are cool looking and ready to tackle any terrain. They are easy to put on and laces are not hanging to the ground once tied. The extra cushion in the soles make for an all day wear without feeling fatigued. The bottom of the shoes provide great traction on any trail. Be prepared to have wet feet since the shoes are like a mesh material. They should be able to dry quicker than a suede or leather shoe.

Comfortable all day shoes
3 years ago
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I’ve had these shoes for about a week so far and have been wearing them as my every day shoe since receiving them. They’ve been very comfortable to wear walking and driving for long periods. I enjoy that they’re very light and breath very well. Especially now that it’s already heating up in the south. They’ve been great on a few light runs on concrete and on grass. Overall very happy with the show. Very comfortable and they also look great for an every day shoe not too much going on.

Hiking the trails in the Terra Kiger’s
3 years ago
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Nike Air Zoom Terra Kiger 8’s are very comfortable for walking, running, hiking and other mobile activities. The first time you slide your foot into the shoe it feels light and fitted. The tongue of the shoe is very secure and the back heel tabs are very useful. I love the classic black white and grey color blocking. One of my favorite features is the wave like pattern throughout the midsole and the outsole. Also by spacing out the ridges on the bottom more it makes it tough for dirt and rocks to get stuck which is rare. However, I do think that the heel should be a little more padded. It gets annoying running/ jogging and the back heel keeps pressing against your heel/achilles. I enjoy the flexible and more durable fly knit style material. Overall the Terra Kiger’s are comfortable, stylish and dynamic shoe that are great for walking, hiking or trail running.
