If you’re already a fan of the Primal 2, then consider the Primal Zen its heir apparent. We took the components you love in the Primal 2 - the wide toe box and the flexible IBR outsole - and built a shoe on a new platform that wraps around your foot like a glove. For a more comfortable feel, we also added 2mm of extra sole for added protection and durability. 

We didn’t call this shoe “Zen” for nothing. In shoes this comfortable, all of your worries will just slip away. This super minimalist, kicking-around-town shoe offers a wider outsole width than the Primal 2, and a touch more cushion while still keeping the weight off, at just 8.2 oz. The Primal Zen's slick construction also includes an attached tongue that won't fall out of position, and slightly stretchy laces to give you the perfect fit across the top of your foot. The cork footbed guarantees your feet will stay cool and comfortable, with or without socks. With so much comfort designed into this shoe, you'll truly feel like you're wearing nothing at all!

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.

    Impressed with My First Minimal Shoes

    This is my first pair of minimal shoes and I’m really enjoying them.

    Amazing comfort

    I have neuropathy and nerve damage and really struggle to find shoes I can wear. I usually wear a new Balance extra wide with a power step insert. I was concerned about changing to Lems , but decided to try a pair and the comfort is amazing and I had minimal trouble going from a very supportive insole to a more natural cork. I am a female, but typically purchased men's shoes because they are wider. I have bought five more pairs to coordinate with my clothes because I cannot purchase dress shoes. My feet overall feel healthier, wearing Lems.

    So good 👍

    These are all around comfortable shoes! Great for walking/running on asphalt with a little more cushion than most zero drop barefoot shoes. I've also hiked in them and the breathable mesh keeps your feet dry but also designed to keep your feet well protected. I love them
