*Please note: The Primal 3 now comes with the Minimal Cork Insole (not the pictured blue insoles in some lifestyle shots). Sorry, no substitutions.

Attention, Primal 2 enthusiasts! Get ready to refresh your footwear game with the all-new Primal 3. Designed with your feedback in mind, this latest iteration maintains many of the signature features of the Primal 2, such as a zero-drop platform and wide toe box, while also introducing exciting enhancements.

The difference is that we developed a new outsole on the Primal 3 with a wider footprint for more ground contact underneath the foot. It has a wider heel and midfoot to distribute your weight more evenly. The Primal 3 still utilizes our signature IBR outsole for a lightweight, flexible feel!

With fit and feel in mind, we've listened to your feedback and made the Primal 3 available in half sizes, because when it comes to comfort, we believe every inch counts!

Speaking of comfort, our new recycled PU insole takes things up a notch. At 4.5mm thick, its breathable materials ensures comfort in every step.

And fear not, loyal fans – while the Primal 3 boasts exciting new features, we've kept the upper consistent with the beloved Primal 2. That's right – the same unbeatable comfort you know and love, now with even more sizing options to ensure the perfect fit for every foot!

ENHANCED OUTSOLE

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

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.

    Missing the Flexibility of the Primal 2

    While these may look substantially similar to the Primal 2, they are definitely not the same. I've always been drawn to the Primal shoe for the flexibility factor (which was rated 4/4 on the Primal 2). Wearing the Primal 3 is a completely different experience for me. My feet and knees immediately noticed the difference. It's disappointing that the most flexible shoe now offered is rated a 3.5/4 for flexibility (the Primal Zen) and that there are no longer any 4/4 options - which has been my whole rationale for buying Lems since 2017. I hope there will be more flexible shoe options in the future.

    (I'm still including that I Would Recommend to someone else as other people may have a different experience, body mechanics or preferences than me.)

    Comfortable right away

    I had been wearing Altra shoes but they were wearing out too fast and not quite fitting right. I have hiked in these new lems about 20 miles now. My feet are less sore. I’m impressed and I love the plain colors and gum bottoms. Makes them look like fancy sneakers. I wear a 10 in lems but sometimes a 9.5 in other shoes.
