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.

COLLAPSABLE HEEL

The microfiber heel pops down for quick slipper style access! Looking for added support? Simply flip it back up and the Drifter transforms back to a traditional slip on.

CORK FOOTBED

By adding an ultra-thin 0.8mm cork top layer, your foot will be feeling the benefits of natural coolness and comfort, with or without socks.

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.

Why do I even have other shoes?
I bought these and thought they looked a bit bulkier than I would like, but I love them. I have other shoes, but I find myself continually reaching for my Drifters. I don't have particularly wide feet, so these have a little room on the sides, but the heel and top of shoe come up high enough to where my shoes stay put. And then, there is the base of the shoe. The flexibility of the sole is so comfortable. I have them in black, but would love if a dark grey would be made.

great summer shoe
I'm converting all my shoes to a wide toe box shoe and these are great. Love the cork insole.
