When the Zoom Vomero 5 Roam debuted last year, Swoosh fans weren’t entirely sure what to make of it. Why? Because to many, the original Zoom Vomero 5 is already a perfect sneaker – so what’s the point of reinventing something that doesn’t need fixing? Well, after 14 long months, the consensus is clear: it might actually be even better, and that’s thanks to pairs like the upcoming Nike Zoom Vomero 5 Roam Metallic Platinum.
So what is the Zoom Vomero 5 Roam, anyway? It essentially takes everything that made the 2010 running shoe so great and beefs it up for everyday adventure. This version is built atop a metallic pewter nylon base, overlaid with a matching leather cage that wraps across the sidewalls for added structure. Thick, hiking-style laces amplify the rugged aesthetic and come upgraded with a toggle switch system, allowing you to tighten or loosen on the go without missing a step.
