Nike Acg Zegama

Nike Acg Zegama review: what runners say

Fit

New trail-specific last with more volume in the forefoot and higher instep: a clear departure from previous versions. The heel requires careful lacing to avoid slippage; once dialed in, the fit is secure.

Feel

ZoomX directly underfoot delivers soft, energetic cushioning; the lower Cushlon 3.0 layer stabilizes without burying ground feel. Bathtub construction lowers the center of gravity and returns control on technical terrain.

Durability

Vibram Megagrip with 4.5 mm lugs. After ~50 miles on PCT, rocks, and asphalt, no material loss reported. Partial rubber coverage (~2/3 of the outsole) exposes foam at the midfoot — an area to monitor over the long term.

Best for

Long-distance and ultra trail on technical, rugged terrain. Raced at the Grampian 100M and World Championships (Pyrenees) by Nike ACG athletes. Also recommended as a high-mileage training shoe to preserve legs during heavy blocks.

Weak points

High weight: 11.9 oz (337 g) for US M10.5, above the high-stack category average. One user flags the toe box as too wide for a standard-width foot.
