FAQs
Are these shoes truly waterproof?
Yes, they feature a GORE-TEX waterproof upper that effectively prevents water from penetrating the fabric.
Can these be used for daily street running?
While technically possible, they are optimized for trail terrain; using them on concrete for extended periods may lead to premature wear of the trail-specific outsole lugs.
How does the Zegama fit compare to standard Nike trainers?
The Zegama offers a more generous, spacious toe box compared to many road-focused Nike trainers to accommodate foot swelling during long hikes.
Are these suitable for winter hiking?
The GORE-TEX protection and rugged outsole make them suitable for mixed-terrain winter conditions, provided you wear appropriate thermal socks.
What is the best way to clean the GORE-TEX membrane?
Use a soft damp cloth or a dedicated GORE-TEX cleaner. Avoid harsh soaps or bleaches that can damage the waterproof coating.
Does the cushioning bottom out quickly?
The midsole is designed for high-mileage durability, maintaining its responsiveness through sustained use on varied terrain.
Troubleshooting
Foot feels slightly loose despite correct size
Adjust the lacing pattern to secure the midfoot or utilize the extra toe room to adjust your sock thickness.
Moisture buildup inside the shoe
While waterproof, ensure you are wearing moisture-wicking synthetic or wool hiking socks to manage internal perspiration.
Outsole loses grip in mud
Clean the debris out of the deep tread grooves using a stiff brush to restore the outsole's traction pattern.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your Nike ACG Zegama shoes, proper care is essential.
Break-in Period

Care Instructions
- Cleaning: Remove excess mud or dirt with a soft brush after each use. Avoid machine washing.
- Drying: Air dry naturally in a cool, shaded area. Never use a tumble dryer or heat sources like radiators, as extreme heat can degrade the GORE-TEX membrane and adhesive bonds.
- Storage: Keep in a well-ventilated space to prevent moisture buildup and odors.
