ACG debuts new hiking boot

All Conditons Gear (ACG) is introducing the Zegama Hike, a performance hiking boot designed to blur the lines between running and hiking footwear.

Built to move across rugged terrain while delivering lightweight responsiveness and all-day comfort, the Zegama Hike brings ACG’s most advanced performance innovations to hiking footwear.

The Zegama Hike is the first hiking option within ACG’s performance footwear lineup following the brand’s reintroduction in February. The boot combines the lightweight, responsive DNA of the Zegama Trail running shoe with the durability and support required for longer, more demanding hikes.

“Zegama Hike is disruptive for all the right reasons, bringing the best of Nike innovation into hiking and delivering a holistic system that puts the athlete’s needs at the centre,” said Brenden McAleese, director, ACG Footwear.

“ACG is doing what the brand does best: dreaming up performance gear wrapped in ACG-only magic.”

At the foundation of the Zegama Hike is a last with increased room in the forefoot and toe box. A stacked foam construction has a layer of ZoomX foam sitting directly underfoot, cradled by a more protective, rigid foam designed to enhance durability and stability on uneven terrain.

The mid-cut Zegama Hike features a fit system designed to stabilise the heel and ankle on steep climbs and downhill treks. The boot has rubberised overlays, reinforced toe and heel guards, and an ankle gaiter to helps keep trail debris out.

Underfoot, the Zegama Hike is equipped with Vibram Megagrip technology for traction on wet and dry surfaces alike.

ACG said it developed the Zegama Hike by listening to the evolving needs of outdoor athletes seeking lighter hiking footwear that delivers all-day comfort and protection on rugged terrain. ACG tested prototypes on trails around the world, from long hikes in Oregon to treks in the Alps, fit testing with a local run club in Korea, partnering with an urban hiking group in Los Angeles, and working alongside college athletes in Utah.

The ACG Zegama Hike will be available in July 2026 at allconditionsgear.com and select retail locations.
