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.

FULL RUBBER OUTSOLE WITH ZIG-ZAG SIPING

This brand new, sticky rubber outsole incorporates 4mm deep lugs for incredible traction on snow, mud, and everywhere in-between! The built in zig-zag grooves (siping) provide additional biting edges to cut into ice/snow and helps ground your feet in slippery situations.

100% WATERPROOF UPPER

With its fully waterproof membrane and gusseted tongue, the Boulder Summit will keep your feet dry and warm, especially after a day on the slopes or slogging through slush on your way to the bar!

ZERO-DROP

Places the forefoot and heel close 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.

Comfortable, great shoes -- on dry ground
These shoes feel great to walk in, I didn't break them in and had no discomfort walking around. They're really comfortable and good for temps up to about 50-55, then my feet started getting hot, so consider these a fall and winter shoe. The main problem was just how slippery these are on wet ground. I guess I assumed waterproof meant it was okay walking in wetter circumstances, but just waking on the asphalt on a rainy day and I frequently almost lost my balance - don't even ask me how it felt trying to walk over icy patches. When it snowed this year I had to dust off my old doc martens and squeeze into them so that I could walk around without falling. I'm assuming the boulder summits have an issue with the material of their outsole, as the grip pattern itself seems fine. I definitely wouldn't risk hiking anywhere with wet rock though and only wear these on mostly dry days.

Second pair
I wore my first pair of the vegan Boulder Summit Waterproof boots until they wore out, so I recently bought my second pair for a trip to Scotland. I've tried other waterproof vegan boots and none of them fit me as well as Lems. These boots just kept my feet warm and dry through Scottish rain, even as I explored to find dinosaur footprints on the Isle of Skye. I was ankle deep in mud and water at some points, and my feet stayed dry. I love these boots, and I'm sad the nylon is being discontinued. I hope they continue to create vegan Waterproof boots that hold up this well! Highly recommend
