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

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

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.

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.

My favorite Lems, and possibly shoe, of all time
I've been on a...journey for the past 15 years or so, trying to find shoes that fit and feel good. After a few dozen (not exaggerating) attempts, the Primal 3 is where it's at for those of us with wide feet or compressed feet from too-narrow shoes.
From the first weekend I tried these on to every day in between, it's never squeezed, pinched, or in any way tried to correct my gait, while protecting my feet from the ground and water.
I'd like if there was slightly less outsole, but that's just me being picky. I'm be purchasing at least one more pair in a different color this year, I like them so much.

AWESOME
comfortable, light, perfect fit. I have never ordered shoes online before and it was perfect. This was my first time ordering LEMS and I couldn't be happier
