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.

IBR OUTSOLE

Our injection blown rubber outsole is what makes Lems incredibly lightweight and flexible. Deemed as the perfect travel companion, this boot can pack down to the size of your favorite puff jacket.

ULTRA LIGHTWEIGHT

These everyday shoes are some of the lightest on the market and are intended to feel like you're wearing nothing at all.

ZERO-DROP

Places the forefoot and heel flat 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.

Very comfortable
I'm so glad there are shoes out there actually shaped like a human foot, not some pointy-toed nonsense elf shoe! In all of my 38 years, these are literally the most comfortable shoes I've worn. I was very apprehensive about buying shoes online but these Lems aren't avaliable in-store anywhere near me, and I desperately needed some wide toe box shoes because years of wearing steel-toe boots at work has led to bunions on the balls near my big toes, so wearing stupid pointy-toed dress shoes is very uncomfortable. These shoes are life-changing. I also wear thick wool Darn Tough socks, and the shoes even fit well with those, not too snug. Another nice thing about these shoes is they come with an extra pair of plain brown laces if you don't like the yellow hiking laces.

I have enjoyed the shoes, don’t feel I can go back to my old shoes without experiencing slight pain and discomfort.
The shoes have become my EDW.

Great boots
I have had these for many years and they have actually held up quite well. They are now pretty beat up and I mostly wear them kicking through the woods when I go climbing. My only complaint is that the sole can be quite slippery. I would love to try some of their other boots like the newest chelsea or even other boulder boots but it seems like they have mostly abandoned making minimalist shoes so I will probably get another pair of these instead. Wish they would bring back the black leather too.
