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.

VEGAN MATERIALS

Comprised of microfiber and breathable air mesh, we made sure that all materials, down to the laces and glue, are 100% vegan.

ULTRA LIGHTWEIGHT

Our proprietary IBR outsole is what makes Lems incredibly lightweight and flexible - giving your foot the sense of weightlessness.

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.

Is what my folks used to say when we got new sneakers. These are great, my wide as hobbit feet are happy at last.

Just what I was looking for!
I’ve never owned “barefoot” shoes. While these aren’t technically barefoot, I agree with the reviews online that they’re a great inbetween. It’s 0 drop, but with enough stack that your feet (and knees) have sufficient cushioning.
I got all black, and I love the style. The shape/silhouette is not nearly as clunky as it might seem in pictures. I had to go up a half size for it to fit perfectly, and even then they’re somehow smaller than my other shoes (new balance & nike). Again, as someone who’s never owned barefoot shoes, the ground feel is really nice. I’ve had them a couple weeks and my toes/arches feel like they’re getting stronger.
