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.

100% WATERPROOF UPPER

With its waterproof membrane and full-grain oiled leather upper, this Chelsea Boot will keep your feet cozy and dry.

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.

ULTRA LIGHTWEIGHT

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

Reviews Summary

Customers say these boots are exceptionally comfortable and feel like slippers or gloves for their feet. Many appreciate the wide toe box that allows toes to spread naturally and the easy slip-on design. Users frequently mention the boots fit true to size when ordering a half size up as recommended. The waterproof feature works well for rain, snow, and wet grass. Customers find them versatile enough for both work and casual wear, with many using them for yard work, hiking, and professional settings. Some note the sole can be slippery on certain surfaces and a few mention the elastic sides can be tight initially but stretch with wear.

A beloved gift!
We purchased these boots as a birthday gift for our son in late November and had to wait until Dec. 20 to see if he would like them and if they fit. He doesn't live near us, and we were waiting for a good time to drive up to see him in Portland, Oregon. We did, and he LOVES them. They are a perfect fit! He wears the same size shoe as his dad, size 11, but we got size 11.5. Excellent fit! We also love that it's a Boulder company because we used to live in that area and love it. Thank you Lems, you are our favorite!

Very pleased
I am having a hard time not wearing these every time I leave my house. The first day they felt tight around the top of my foot but the next day wore them again and I had no problems and I’ve worn them a lot from then on and I can say these are my favorite footwear. I’m definitely looking at getting more lems shoes

The best boots ever
This is my third pair of Lem Chelseas and I will buy another if these ever wear out because I still wear the first pair that I bought over four years ago and, although the waterproof wears out, they can always be re-oiled. Go Lem!
