[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Love whoever was bold enough to put out a white trail shoe, it wonāt stay that way for long! Iāve been running in the Nike Terra Kiger and was hoping for a bit more cushion on longer trail runs and these have been so comfortable. This is my first Nike trail shoe in the new ACG era and I think the rebrand is brilliant and Nike is coming to play. I never got to run in past versions of the Zegama but I already appreciate the aggressive vibram lugs and gentle wrap on the heel counter collar. Just a little something to give some bonus protection. I might be running in these more than the Zigerās now. Also love the reflective elements.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Oh my goodness. I have never experienced a shoe so light in weight, excellent in comfort, superior in breathability and traction. I love the technology provided in the ACG Zegama shoe whether on or off trail. Perfect for All Conditions. The outer mesh panel makes for superior breathability in any physical activity and also dries quickly if any moisture is detected. The extended mesh sock liner adds to the breathability and comfort allowing for multi directional motion of the ankle. I would recommend sizing up a half size for full comfortability and am overall impressed with the style and technology provided with this shoe.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Upon recieving these shoes and after the first couple of wears I thought this shoe was very uncomfortable as it gave me this pain in the heel area of my foot. Once I wore them a couple more times, for a little longer runs, I feel like the shoes broke in a little more. Since then, it has been such a comfortable and supportive shoe that I have since started wearing them every day. I am even wearing them to work now since I am on my feet in a shop and in the parking lot the majority of the time. Whether you grab these for style, comfort, performance, or any other reason...these shoes will not let you down!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These shoes feel like they are designed to keep the feet as comfortable as possible for every type of outdoor terrain. The ankle support in particular felt very secure with plenty of cushion on the heel to help with potential planting of the feet during activities like hiking. The softer fabric, specifically around the ankle, feels unlike any other outdoor style shoe Iāve worn. It does not feel rough or jagged and emphasizes a smooth-to-the-touch approach. My favorite part about the shoe is the support around the heel area. As an avid outdoor walker, this is very important as it does allow for a much more comfortable style for longer miles put into multiple terrain during walks.
Nike really improved the Zegama with this version. The ZoomX foam feels smooth, responsive, and surprisingly durable across all types of terrain. Iāve used them on dirt trails, rocky sections, and even road miles between trailheads, and they handled everything well without feeling unstable. The grip feels more confident, thanks Vibram! What I like most is that this shoe doesnāt feel limited to one environment. It goes from trail to pavement to lifestyle wear⦠what an āall conditionsā shoe should be! No breaking in, right out of the box ready to go! Super solid for daily miles, hiking, or long treks.
So I have a wide foot more so in the forefoot (bunion) area, and most Nikes that Iāve tried donāt accommodate for that very well. I went a .5 size up in these and let me tell you, these are insanely comfortable. I havenāt ran in them yet but I stand for work 7 hours a day and theyāve felt amazing 3 days straight. Theyāre so dope looking too. The little Achilles elastic situation feels amazing too. Iām very impressed by these sneakers! The cushion is on the softer side. I weigh around 180 and you get some squish but nothing insane.
I ordered these in the light crimson colorway and my only complaint is that the colors on the website don't appear to match the actual pair that you receive. In person, the color is more like an "infrared" color which is almost like a ligher, almost neon red/pink. On the website they look more like a standard red. That aside, these shoes are amazingly comfortable. Probably one of the most comfortable pairs of shoes I have gotten in years. The toebox is very roomy and feels great even as someone with wider feet. I hope to get a second pair in the all black soon.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Nike Acg Zegama Trail is a complete trail running shoe. The shoe is built to provide comfort for miles. The Vibram outsole provides great grip on any terrain. The ZoomX midsole provides energy return during runs. The material of the upper is lightweight and molds to your feet. The Nike Acg Zegama Trail offers a complete performance design. However, if I could change one thing about this shoe it would be the color. Running trails in a white shoe just doesnāt mix well.
I have the Zegama 1s and really like them. The Pegasus Trail is really my go-to. Iāve read a lot of great things about this Zegama ACG being the most comfortable trail shoe from Nike so decided to pick them up. Not disappointed at all! I was so impressed with how comfortable they actually are. This is initial impression, but man, I really love how they feel. Great color as well. I know Iāll end up getting another pair.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] First off WOW! The all conditions were definitely applied in these ACG Zegama. I got the white color way with the pop of orange, which I thought was a nice touch. I tried these bad boys on multiple hikes and I must admit, I was surprised. The cushioning helped in multiple ways, as I was able to walk through different types of conditions without feeling it on my soles and yet super lightweight. Which for me are important factors for trail shoes. I also like how it has a high ankle cuff to help keep the debris out. If thereās anything I would change about these, it would be to add a reflective touch somewhere throughout the shoe. As someone who does outdoor activities at night, having the reflective touch would help catch peopleās attention. Overall I am impressed by how lightweight and comfortable these are. I look forward to many more hikes with these ACG Zegama.
