Fleece-lined Crocs are just what the winter rotation deserves.

With the cooler weather right around the corner, Crocs shows up at the perfect time with a new-old winter model called the Tembo II RO. It's a clog. It's also kind of a sneaker. And it's essentially the brand's 2010 Tembo model but updated for today.

Crocs preserves the breathable upper and general outdoorsy charm. It also keeps its signature warm Polartec fleece lining, which is also used in The North Face and Patagonia's best jackets.

What's new? It no longer features the extended ripstop nylon collar (honestly, it's much cleaner this way). Additionally, Crocs has added Vibram soles to the Tembo, upping its durability with with pretty much all-terrain traction.

Crocs has done fleece shoes before, but nothing as top-notch and cold-weather-ready as the Tembo II. Dare we say, this sequel surpasses the original.

It's scheduled to drop on Crocs' website on August 27 in "Orange Zing" and "Elephant" colorways. It'll retail for $100.

The Tembo II RO will essentially join the EXP family, a line of experimental shoes which includes other refreshed archival styles flexing modern tech. Think Crocs clogs with Vibram soles and ruggedized ballet sneakers.

The fleece-lined, Vibram-backed hybrids should feel right at home.
