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.

FULL RUBBER OUTSOLE WITH ZIG-ZAG SIPING

This brand new, sticky rubber outsole incorporates 4mm deep lugs for incredible traction on snow, mud, and everywhere in-between! The built in zig-zag grooves (siping) provide additional biting edges to cut into ice/snow and helps ground your feet in slippery situations.

100% WATERPROOF UPPER

With its fully waterproof membrane and gusseted tongue, the Boulder Summit will keep your feet dry and warm, especially after a day on the slopes or slogging through slush on your way to the bar!

ZERO-DROP

Places the forefoot and heel close 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.

Good quality, super comfortable
I love these boots, they are excellent quality and I can tell they will last a long time. I've been wearing these for about a month and so far they are great. I would say they are true to size.

Great Boots
This is my second pair of Lems. The first pair were my everyday shoes and I wore them while hiking, landscaping, and being rowdy. After a couple years, one of them started to come apart. It would be cool if Lems offered repairs, but luckily, I have a talented sister who is fixing them for me. If you need your leather boots fixed, her IG handle is @stinging_nettle_studio.
I ordered these while I wait for the repair, because I like that they're waterproof. They're hella comfortable and compact/slim/attractive.
As I was ordering this pair, I found the process difficult. It said these were out of stock on my computer but when I looked on my phone, they were available. That was confusing. There is another type of Lems boot that has a very similar name so I was also getting them mixed up. As I chose the UPS location for pickup, I wasn't able to see exactly where it would arrive. I got an email when it was delivered to that location but there was no address. I had to guess where it was and hope that it would be there when I showed up. That was the most annoying part of the process.

Fits my AFO
I bought the Boulder Summit Waterproof Boots last winter. I love them. Yesterday I received an ankle foot orthosis for a new diagnosis of foot drop. Many of my peers complain how their AFO doesn’t fit their footwear. I was worried I would have to give up my Lems, especially my boots,. Now I love my Lems even more because my AFO fits my favorite boots. I do remove the insole of the shoe with the AFO for a better fit.
