The Trailhead is our take on a minimalist hiking shoe equipped for any trail, trek or urban travel adventure. With its natural shape toe box, minimal heel drop, and lightweight design, it's sure to keep pushing your boundaries.

Whether you're climbing a 14er, going on a bike and brew tour, or even backpacking around the world, the Trailhead will be sure to take you far away from the ordinary. Designed for the trail but styled for the city streets, this low cut hiking shoe is the answer for your every move.

Stormy Night

We recommend ordering UP 1/2 size from your normal US size. If you have wider feet, we do not suggest this shoe.

Unsure of your size? We recommend ordering 2+ pairs at a time, as we offer a flat shipping fee of $5.95 & free exchange options for US customers.

This shoe is available in one width - MEDIUM Natural-Shape, as highlighted below:

https://cdn.shopify.com/s/files/1/0076/8812/6522/files/FitCharts23-MEDIUM_480X480

RUGGED UPPER

The upper is made of durable materials that stand up to the abuses of trails, and also daily wear and tear.

MOUNTAIN-TO-TOWN OUTSOLE

Engineered with a low profile rubber tread that combines the best of both worlds: ample traction on trails, AND excellent durability on pavement.

LOW HEEL DROP

With 4mm of drop, compared to the traditional 12mm of drop, the Trailhead naturally decreases heel-striking for a more natural gait and healthier posture.

FIRM CUSHIONING

When your foot is on too soft of cushion, you end up with pain and discomfort. We've formulated a firm EVA midsole that'll keep your feet happy all day long.

Reviews Summary
Customers say these shoes are extremely comfortable right out of the box with no break-in period needed. The wide toe box provides excellent room for natural foot shape, though many note they run small and recommend sizing up half to a full size. Users appreciate the lightweight design and versatile styling that works for everything from office wear to light hiking. The grip and tread perform well on various surfaces. Many customers become repeat buyers, with some owning multiple pairs. Common feedback includes praise for the zero-drop design and overall construction quality. Some mention the toe box could be wider, and a few find the soles stiffer than expected.

    Another new favorite shoe!

    After years of sports, martial arts tournaments, and long distance road and trail running, my feet were constantly in pain. I got my first pair of Lems Primal 3 as a minimalist and wide toe box shoe to help strengthen my feet. I was healed and have never looked back. I own several different styles now and they’re all my favorite footwear. Lenms are simply the best shoes out there! It’s my go to brand for life!

    Comfortable, Versatile, and Built for Everyday Use

    I’ve been really impressed with the Lems Trailhead shoes. Right out of the box, they were comfortable with little to no break-in period, which is a big plus. The lightweight design and flexible sole make them easy to wear all day, whether I’m walking around the city or hitting light trails.

    What stands out most is the versatility — these shoes transition seamlessly from outdoor use to casual everyday wear. The grip is solid on most surfaces, and the overall construction feels durable and well-made. They also have a clean look that works with both casual and slightly dressed-up outfits.

    The natural foot shape and low-drop design make them feel stable and comfortable over long periods, although if you’re used to heavily cushioned shoes, there may be a slight adjustment period.

    Overall, this is a great all-around shoe for anyone looking for comfort, durability, and flexibility in one package. Definitely recommend.

    Great shoes

    This is my second pair of shoes from them. They’ve lasted great and are a very good fit. They can be a little overpriced but I’m still happy I got them. I will say my feet didn’t fit great in shoes in general but these seem to fit good and are durable
