[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Love whoever was bold enough to put out a white trail shoe, it won’t stay that way for long! I’ve 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 Ziger’s now. Also love the reflective elements.
[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 I’ve 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. I’ve 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 doesn’t feel limited to one environment. It goes from trail to pavement to lifestyle wear… what an “all conditions” shoe should be! No breaking in, right out of the box ready to go! Super solid for daily miles, hiking, or long treks.
[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 doesn’t mix well.
[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 there’s 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 people’s attention. Overall I am impressed by how lightweight and comfortable these are. I look forward to many more hikes with these ACG Zegama.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] When I first received this order, I didn’t know how I felt about the design of the shoes in person. I started wearing them day 1, they were a bit tight at first and the bottoms seemed stiff. I wear a lot of road running shoes so the comfortability was a bit different to start. I walked for a few miles on a road trail, the shoes felt more comfortable as I got used to them. They really stood out on the dirt path. They were very comfortable. I walk a lot during the day, and once these are “broken in” or you’re used to them, they can easily be an all day shoe. I did walk in them for probably 12 miles before I ran in them on the road trail, 3 miles. After that was the dirt trail. They seemed to loosen up about the 3rd wear. I got quite a few compliments each time I’ve worn them. The materials are premium and breathable. I could use these shoes anywhere. I would really enjoy more color options!!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The shoes have the perfect amount of room around the toes; it is spacious without feeling loose. The shoes feel thick and durable without being heavy. The insole is thick and has a nice spring to it that takes some pressure off my knees. Overall I’d recommend this shoe for outdoor runs.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I absolutely love wearing these sneakers. Transitioning from marathon training to trail running i was pretty nervous to find sneakers that would support me on the uneven and rough terrain. Luckily I found the Nike Acg Zegama Trail which have been the best addition to my training sneakers. These sneakers fit like a glove and extremely supportive. I've used them several times on hikes and trail runs. Running with the Acg Zegama made me feel like I could do anything. I was able to run the trail with complete confidence knowing that my sneakers had a solid grip and I wouldnt fall. I have wide feet so sometimes after an extended amount of time using a sneaker, my feet would hurt. But not in these. i wore them for 14hrs straight and felt completely fine. I also love the design. These sneakers looks good for workouts but also go just going out. i love the orange soles. It gives the sneaker a pop. I would recommend these shoes to anyone who takes trail running or hiking seriously. They are truly a supportive and comfy shoe.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These are probably the most comfortable running shoes that I own and I’m in love with the fact that they are ACG. They can withstand almost any condition that you can imagine while providing comparability and stability. I highly recommend these whether you run inside or outside.
