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.

LEATHER UPPER

We’ve utilized a full-grain leather upper to enhance the overall look and feel of the shoe. Date night? Business casual event? The Nine2Five has you covered.

IBR OUTSOLE

Injection blown rubber is a mixture of air and rubber that makes our minimalist shoes incredibly lightweight and flexible.

ZERO-DROP

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.

A great follow up but sizing feels slightly different from V1
I feel like the shoes are a little tiny larger than V1s, which makes my right shoe slightly loose. It may be because there's less material around the ankles so maybe the fit is not as snug, maybe there's a sizing issue, I don't know. I've been wearing EU size 44 V1s for many years, I think I had 3 pairs in total. I ordered 10.5 V2s which should be the closest equivalent or the same size but they aren't quite the same. Another minor problem is that they are creaking a little bit, while V1 was silent. Otherwise, it remains a great shoe for every day as V1 was. I think they are lighter than V1 but can't really feel it when wearing them. I think the leather is different or it's the adjusted shape but it looks like V2s are less prone to folds forming in the leather.

Wish the brown leather V2 was more formal worthy
I own the brown leather v1 and can easily wear them with my suit to show up to formal events with healthy feet.
The brown leather v2 with the white sole isn't formal appropriate, but it is good for the regular workplace.
I hope you guys make a formal shoe again alongside the new nine2fives!
