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.

ENHANCED OUTSOLE

With its newly redesigned outsole, the Primal 3 features a wider footprint, offering improved weight distribution and stability.

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.

FLEXIBLE

Made from our signature IBR outsole, the Primal 3 is an ultra lightweight and flexible option compared to traditional footwear.

Primal 3
These have been amazing shoes, best I've had so far. They are comfortable, durable, stylish, and quick to dry if they get wet. I plan to purchase additional pairs.

Great fit for hard to fit feet
My second toe is quite a lot longer than my big toe which also has a pretty bad bunion. I bought a size 12.5 Primal 3?and it fit perfectly with my Correct Toes and socks. My previous pair of 12s required no socks to get them on. I thought “great, I’ll do the same for Chelsea boot” but alas a 12.5 Chelsea still doesn’t fit as the Primal 3. Now if I could just have a boot that fits like the Primal 3

Happy Purchaser
I just purchased these to replace my casual shoes I’ve been wearing for 20 years. I had a hard time finding anything I thought would match the comfort and quality of my old shoes. I’m really happy with my purchase. The fit was precise. I have a narrow heal and wide toe box, and these fit my feet perfectly. The quality looks exceptional out of the box. The cork soles are really comfortable. Thank you!
