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.

Great!
Second pair and I love them! My orthopedist recommended these with my orthotics to help with my flat feet. Very comfortable!

Issues with build up under arches
I have been on a quest for a barefoot style shoe only with more cushioning. I really wanted the Primal Zen to fit the bill, but even after trying two different sizes, it still did not work for me. I love the Boulder Summit boot and thought the Zen would be a perfect fit since they are built on the same last. Even after removing the insole, it felt like there was a ridge under the arches, particularly on the left shoe. It looks like the Zen has a "wave" on the outsole which comes up under the arch that is not present on the Summit. Sadly, will be returning.
