FAQs
Are these shoes truly waterproof?
Yes, they feature a GORE-TEX upper, which is a highly effective waterproof and breathable barrier designed to keep water out while allowing internal moisture to escape.
Are these shoes suitable for everyday wear?
While they are comfortable, they are specifically engineered for hiking and technical trail use. Their aggressive outsoles are best suited for natural terrain rather than concrete or asphalt.
How should I clean the GORE-TEX membrane?
Gently wipe the exterior with a damp cloth. Avoid harsh detergents or scrubbing brushes that could damage the waterproof treatment.
Do I need to size up for these hiking shoes?
The Zegama features an extended toe box for comfort. It is generally recommended to stick to your standard size, but try them on with your preferred hiking socks to confirm.
What should I do if the shoes get soaked?
Remove the insoles and stuff the shoes with dry newspaper or a clean towel to absorb moisture from the inside. Air dry in a well-ventilated area away from direct heat.
Troubleshooting
Moisture buildup inside the shoe
Ensure you are using moisture-wicking technical socks; GORE-TEX is waterproof but can trap heat if socks are non-breathable.
Foot slippage inside the shoe during descents
Re-lace the shoes using a 'heel lock' or 'runner's loop' technique to better secure the ankle and prevent the foot from sliding forward.
Outsole losing traction
Clean debris trapped between the lugs with a stiff brush; packed mud significantly reduces the effectiveness of the tread pattern.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the best experience with your Nike ACG Zegama shoes, ensure you select the appropriate UK size (e.g., 6.5 as specified). When first trying on, wear the type of moisture-wicking hiking socks you intend to use on the trail to verify the fit in the heel and toe box.
Care Instructions:
- After muddy or dusty hikes, remove loose debris using a soft-bristled brush.
- Clean the exterior with a damp cloth and mild soap; avoid submerging or machine washing, as this can degrade the GORE-TEX membrane.
- Air dry the shoes naturally away from direct heat sources like radiators or sunlight, which can cause material warping.
- Ensure the laces are securely tightened to prevent foot sliding on steep inclines.
