For customers that find the Trailhead and Mesa too narrow, the Primal Pursuit may be just what you need, and probably the highest anticipated style to hit the Lems lineup to date! The Primal Pursuit features the same fit and feel as the Primal 2, but with a bit more oomph, like the Trailhead/Mesa.

The new Trail Traction Outsole provides more grip on the trail, with a slightly higher stack height, providing a bit more cushion for more sensitive feet, yet they won’t weigh you down. 

Think of the Primal Pursuit as a hybrid of the Primal 2 and the Trailhead/Mesa. We incorporated all of the features you have grown to love about these shoe models into one new and improved style!

The Primal Pursuit combines the fit and feel of the Primal 2 with its zero-drop and wide toe box, with the functionality and durability of the Trailhead/Mesa for more rugged Pursuits - see what we did there? ;)

The lightweight materials include an air mesh upper that allows for maximum air flow to wick away moisture and keep you presentable for a post-run brewski. The Primal Pursuit features the same zero-drop heel and wide toe box as the Primal 2 that allows the toes to behave like they are meant to - free and splayed.

You’ll never have to load your weekend getaway pack with multiple pairs of shoes for all of your adventures and social activities, the Primal Pursuit has got you covered for all of it!

TRAIL TRACTION OUTSOLE

This full-rubber, rugged outsole is designed with recessed grooves and singular lugs, giving you the traction you need for any sticky situation!

BREATHABLE MATERIALS

Lightweight, breathable air mesh covers the upper where the foot flexes, allowing for maximum comfort and mobility.

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.

    Nothing like it

    I got these as a gift at the end of 2023 and I connot go back to any other shoes they hurt my feet and these became my everything shoes I did all of my races in them and all my training but now it's 2025 and a year worth of races and training later, I buggt sme shoes locally and quickly realized they do not compare. Came to rebuy only to see it is discounted i am so disappointed I LOVED(STILL LOVE) these shoes. Still my race shoes. I just ordered the primal 3 hopefully they will also be great. But I can see they are very different shoes and idk how that will be during marathons (i cannot wear the big brand running shoes, i like having toenails)

    Returned item

    The shoe is really nice, but it’s a little too short for my foot. I even ordered 1/2 size larger than my usual. I would have gladly exchanged it for the next size up. But although my order was placed only 2 weeks ago, the shoe has been discontinued and the next size is not available. The replacement version does not come in black, which is the color I chose, and there is no suitable replacement that has the features I need. Big bummer. I really liked this shoe and brand and their customer service is good. I’ve scheduled a return and will have to go with a different brand. I think it would really be good to have replacements available for at least 60 days from any purchase.
