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.

SLIP RESISTANT OUTSOLE

This shoe is equipped with a slip resistant, non-marking rubber outsole that utilizes zig-zag grooves and grippy textures to ensure your feet remain grounded in slippery situations.

LEATHER UPPER

We’ve utilized a full-grain leather upper to enhance the overall look and feel of the shoe. Date night? Business casual event? The Drifter Grip has you covered.

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.

ZERO-DROP

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

Love these!
Super comfortable as always, and they did a great job on the design! I own 4 pairs of Lems and they’re all wonderful to wear.

Close but no home run
Sole design and performance excellent with no complaints. Top leather provides almost no complaint. Perhaps it is a design issue but the lack of a rolled and padded edge to the tongue can cause problems if your foot shape is the wrong match for the tongue design. My left foot blistered at the point of contact with the tongue. Still would buy these shoes but would perhaps put a pad under the tongue area to lift the tongue just a bit.

Comfy and stylish
I am serving a 2 year mission, and these are just what I wanted. I needed a shoe that I could wear everyday, and that I could walk in all day, and these work just for that. I bought 2 pairs and I hope they last me, while still looking nice, the whole 2 years.
