PRIMAL 2 VS. PRIMAL 3 OVERVIEW

Balanced Weight Distribution
The increased overall outsole width ensures that your body weight is spread out more evenly, reducing the pressure points on your feet. This even weight distribution enhances comfort during various activities. For those with lower arches and flat feet, you will find that this is a big improvement. But for those with high arches, you may feel very little, to no difference.
Enhanced Outsole
The Primal 3 is made with our Widest Fit Last, just like the Primal 2. The difference is that we developed a new outsole on the Primal 3 with a wider footprint for more ground contact underneath the foot.
Higher Sidewalls
When examining the Lems Primal 3 from a lateral view, you may notice a visual difference — the sidewalls now wrap up higher on the sides. This is a deliberate design choice aimed at improving both fit and lateral stability. The higher side walls provide a snugger fit around the contours of your feet, cradling them comfortably.
Zero-Drop Platform
Just like the Primal 2, the Primal 3 is built on a zero-drop platform which keeps your heel and toes level, mimicking your natural barefoot position on a flat surface.

FULL RUBBER OUTSOLE WITH ZIG-ZAG SIPING

This brand new, sticky rubber outsole incorporates 4mm deep lugs for incredible traction on snow, mud, and everywhere in-between! The built in zig-zag grooves (siping) provide additional biting edges to cut into ice/snow and helps ground your feet in slippery situations.

100% WATERPROOF UPPER

With its fully waterproof membrane and gusseted tongue, the Boulder Summit will keep your feet dry and warm, especially after a day on the slopes or slogging through slush on your way to the bar!

ZERO-DROP

Places the forefoot and heel close to the ground correcting posture, aligning your spine, and encouraging mid-foot strike.

WIDE TOE BOX

Unlike traditional footwear that squeeze the toes together, our foot-shaped toe box allows for maximum room giving the toes ultimate freedom to wiggle and spread.

Stylish, roomy and extremely comfortable! I have really flat feet and these have tons of room and cushion. My feet didn’t hurt after wearing straight out of the box for 5+ hours running errands. Highly recommend if you have seriously flat feet and want a comfortable boot!

The Perfect Casual/Do Everything Boot
I recently got onboard with the barefoot shoe movement because years of foot abuse (especially from work boots) amounted to excessive pain in my feet, knees, and hips. Wearing these has been nearly instant relief. The trouble is that I still have to put my work boots on throughout the week. Lems—please make a CSA approved steel-toe work boot, and I’ll buy them IMMEDIATELY!

Great comfy wide tow boot
I have used these boots for the last few weeks at while at work and hiking through the woods. My job right now is a lot of driving and maintaining logging roads. They are very comfortable and at times they feel like wearing slippers. The only down side to how thin they are is that they are not insulated for cold temperatures. The weather has just started shifting into the cold and wet season and it is already very noticeable. They are water proof so far just not warm. I will be doing some work running chainsaw, working in steep terrain, dragging brush and will be testing how these boots perform. I sure hope I can get a year if not 2 out of them. I would love it if Lems made a logging work boot that could come in a winter option.
