I got these for work, walking around the building all day, and for this crucial element of my job in a 10,000 sq st parking lot. I can float in the Zegama - no problema, even making more afternoon workouts because the feet (and ankles, knees) feel great! Take it from someone who is wearing the boot/shoe currently (8/2026) and rocking these full-time - they are the best I've worn - and I've worn quite a few. I was working (2-5mi/day on fitness tracker) in the Nike Air Max 95 Big Bubble's, the ACG Zegama is an upgrade. I've also been getting compliments on them. Because they're freakin' cool. Thank you Nike!
Overall, really happy with this purchase so far. Lugs are huge and super grippy, shoe has a bit of a wider fit to it in the toe box, and the layer of protected ZoomX foam is incredible (one of the reasons I purchased) for a soft ride. The shoe feels sturdier than some Hoka hikers I’ve had in the past. They aren’t fully waterproof, but the lower half of the shoe is, which is really all i need for shallow streams and puddles. The platform/sole is very large, and feels incredibly stable. I thought it may want more ankle support in a shoe, but these are so stable that I’m not wishing I had a higher upper. Going on a more technical hike here soon, and I’ll be here to provide an update if anything changes.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] When you think of hiking shoes, you often imagine large, bulky, and uncomfortable footwear; however, the Nike ACG Zegama Hike changes that perception. It features stacked cushioning for all-day comfort on long hikes, a breathable upper to keep your feet cool and prevent them from feeling like a sauna, and reliable, aggressive traction that won't slip on muddy trails. As a wide-footer, I appreciate the generous width, which allows all my toes to wiggle freely. While preferences vary, the added ankle protection from mud splashing and the cushioning around the Achilles tendon are excellent touches.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These hiking shoes got me walking on a cloud. They literally feel like I’m bouncing on each step. I can tell that the design team on these put much thought into what’s needed when an individual is out on a trail. This shoe fits snug but it’s not tight, kind of like a tailored suit! Lol The sole of the shoe has bounce, as stated before, but also has some grip to keep even the first time hiker feel confident with each step. I love the all black color way and I can’t wait to really put these to the test in a few weeks when we go hit a couple trails in the mountains. The majority of Nike products that I’ve worn over the years have been on point and this one falls right in that same category.
I have a few hikes in and appreciate the soft but responsive feel as well as the wide Vibram Sole, very stable with great grip.
I've been waiting for years to replace my ancient Air Moabs! I like the Pegasus Trail but wanted something more. These hiking shoes are exactly what I wanted! I am an outdoor photographer in my spare time and need something with all day comfort and all condition function, whether I am on a sandy beach or rocky ground or muddy trails. I've only put a few miles on them so far but the fit and comfort are great. Sizing matches my Pegasus Trail shoes but these are a bit more roomy in the toe box. The extra width makes them feel very stable. The only thing I wish they offered is a darker colorway. Maybe Black/Chocolate Brown/Sand?
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Nike ACG Zegama Hike fits true to size and feels comfortable right out of the box. On the trail, the grip really stood out. I felt confident and stable on uneven terrain. Despite that sturdiness, the shoe feels surprisingly light and soft, and my feet felt well cradled and supported throughout wear. I didn’t feel the need to break them in and they were true to size. I also really love the rugged look as well as the sock like lining on the ankle to help keep debris out. Overall, a great balance of comfort, traction, and durability.
When it’s ACG u know that every product that comes from this brand is just peaks not with just comfort the style curves this is what a guy needs when he likes hiking good looking with comfort from being fan of mountain fly 1,2 to this I’m just speechless cloth they used is aww man that’s so soft I’m so love I’m so addictive now the comfort they are providing god 🙂↕️ wish they will keep limited stock for this hope people won’t find like this so I could just show off everyone 😏 I’m gonna grab another pair to just in case for future 😝 im sharing the pictures of mountain fly 2 every ACG fans would know it if I’m saying this for 2 long years I never regreted of buying replacing it with another. Trust me will be back soon with this pair with brand new pics will share it …
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I packed the Nike ACG Zegama Hike for last weekend's camping trip in the woods. The fit is true to size and I appreciate that it's wide width. Nike shoes tend to be too narrow for me, but these hiking shoes fit like a dream. Thanks to the ultra-cushioned midsole, these shoes were extremely comfortable. It truly felt like I was walking on clouds. Although, these are not GORE-TEX, the Zegama Hike kept my feet nice and dry for hours during a storm. I'm looking forward to putting some more miles on them.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Coming from someone who hikes VERY regularly, these are like the tanks of hiking shoes. These are built so rugged and tuff and hug your ankle so beautifully. The ankle protection is there!!!! They used a great traction design to help keep you planted to the ground especially going downhill. These fit true to size. Thank you Nike for making the all black color way! These shoes are functional (not just trendy) and doesn’t make me look like a grandpa…. (No offense grandpa). Keep em coming Nike!
