User Review Summary
The Nike Zegama 2 is an off-road shoe aimed at trail runners taking on varied terrain and long distances. Its 31/35mm stack with a low 4mm drop is trail geometry that preserves ground feel while providing ample protection. The midsole pairs a ZoomX foam core with an EVA carrier structure, balancing cushioning and stability, while the 31/35mm thickness eases foot fatigue on long trail outings. The Vibram Megagrip outsole uses multi-directional sawtooth lugs with wide spacing to boost grip on mud and gravel. The upper combines engineered mesh with synthetic overlays and features an ankle gaiter to keep debris out. At around 320g it is mid-weight for a trail shoe. Users report good grip and stability maintained after roughly 250-300km, though some note the forefoot feels slightly snug and that it feels heavy on ultra-long trail runs.
