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

FLEXIBLE

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

Great improvement to Primal 2
Pros:
These are a great improvement to the Primal 2. I appreciate the enhanced material density of the soles, which maintains their compliance. The mid-vamp width increase accommodates wider ball widths and higher bridges, while the wider quarter provides better stability.
I often struggle with finding the right fit; my feet fall somewhere between sizes 11.5 and too narrow and 12/12.5 and too long. For me, the Primal 3s in size 12 provide a good compromise between these sizes.
I'm really glad LEMS decided to preserve the same styling and colors. I ain't broke and they didn't try to fix it.
Cons:
The ball width would still need to be about 2 to 4 mm wider to allow my toes to spread comfortably. I hope breaking them in and using shoe wideners will make a difference. Alternatively, a more elastic material for the mesh areas would better suit those with wider ball widths and bunions.
