Defy the rules and follow the call of the trail wearing the Nike Juniper Trail 2. The durable upper material and effective traction on the bottom provide stable footing and confidence on all the off-road paths that call you to explore them. It is designed for rough terrain and untrodden trails, with reliable traction that will help you stay on course.
Combination of materials
The upper part consists of mesh material, synthetic leather, and fabric for durability and effective air circulation.
Construction with Nike Grind
Contains at least 8% Nike Grind material, which is created from scraps from the shoe manufacturing process.
Durable Design
The rubber outsole with fine protrusions helps you run efficiently on both uphill and downhill terrains, while ensuring the grip you need on rocky trails. The thick material in the toe area offers greater durability.
Increased Stability
The threads combine with the laces for a stable feel, while the inner lining hugs the midfoot for a perfect fit.

01/09/2024_I got it at the beginning of summer for walking in the mountains, I haven't fully tested it yet as my foot sweated a lot inside with dryfit socks, so I will try it in the fall-winter. In the few times I wore it and walked on the road, I noticed a corresponding noise in the walking.
01/2025_On the road during the daily day when it has been worn for a while, the sole starts to creak (probably heating up) as if you have stepped on water. Only on a dirt path is it silent, so only trail, that is its role. Anyway, when I mentioned the problem in a store, they replied that it is not a walking shoe, it is trail.
In trail conditions, it performs quite well, so for those of us who bought it for walking or daily use, it's like we bought off-road tires for a car for the track or road.
In the following link, there is a complete test.

At 70 euros, they are a good deal as they are durable, have a good grip on the foot, and provide a nice feeling while walking, even on rough terrain (mountains and dirt roads). I don't do trail running, so I don't have an opinion on their performance for running, but I imagine they would be above average.
Two negatives that should be taken into consideration are:
- From the beginning, they acquired an unpleasant smell of mold, which I don't have in other shoes or on my feet. This smell became even stronger after washing. It is likely due to the recyclable materials used.
- After a certain distance, the shoe started to squeak, and since then, after some time (around 30-40 minutes of walking), the squeaking appears. Someone else mentioned it in the comments here, and they are absolutely right. It is annoying.
Attention, they tend to slip on Athenian sidewalks. On trails, asphalt is of course not an issue, quality is average, there are visible glue marks, etc., issues that many shoes have nowadays. However, they are quite warm.
Stay away from this garbage! After 2 hours of use, it started making a loud and annoying grinding noise. I do not recommend it for anyone, not even to wear it for a coffee outing. It's not worth it
