Winter is coming, and Nike's getting ahead of the cold weather with more winterized Vomero Roam sneakers.

Although Kendrick Lamar proved these outdoor-ready dad shoes are really year-round.

Early in the spring, the musician stepped out in Nike's "Flax" Vomero Roam sneakers. It may seem like a surprising choice from the Chanel guy. But Kendrick wearing the hike-able Vomeros sounds about right, really.

Aside from the sought-after Martine Rose x Nike mules, Kendrick typically goes for the lesser-hyped Swoosh classics, like the Air DT Max 96 and Shox R4 sneakers.

The Vomero Roam certainly checks the box as a slept-on albeit clever twist on the beloved running model.

It's basically the Nike Vomero 5 made ready for outdoor adventures, even if that means casually getting a 'fit off on the New York streets.

Regardless of the activity, the Nike model is designed to block out the elements, complete with water-repellent touches and a protective rubber mudguard. Of course, there's the chunkier-than-normal soles bringing more comfort and durability to your stride.

For the fall, Nike's rolling out a new clean "Sail" Vomero Roam sneaker, which is expected to drop soon on the brand's website.

At least we know Kendrick approves, too.
