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.

LIGHTWEIGHT & FLEXIBLE

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

LEATHER UPPER

We’ve utilized a full-grain leather upper to enhance the overall look and feel of the shoe. Date night? Business casual event? The Primal Zen Leather has you covered.

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.

ZERO-DROP

Places the forefoot and heel flat to the ground correcting posture, aligning your spine, and encouraging mid-foot strike.

Great shoe
Well as a barber I stand all day, and these have been great. The genuine leather repels the hair off the shoe. It's very comfortable yet stylish. I really like these shoes. They are my go-to's I'm hoping for a white version of these

Beautiful Shoe
Beautiful shoe, I wear it with confidence.
meets all my needs. Perfect amount of cushioning for the modern concrete world. Please never stop making this shoe.
The laces feel incredible and the leather inside is just amazing. The midfoot sits a lot beter in comparison with other wide toebox shoes. Not only the toebox, but also the midfoot is wide. This is something I was missing in a lot of other barefoot shoes.

Feels like an upgraded version of the Primal Zen vegan mesh version. The fit, feel and look are just what I want. Finnaly got a pair after a long search of barefoot shoes for the modern world.
Thankyou Lems!

MAKE INTO BOOTS SO I CAN WEAR ON DUTY!
Sizing ( I wear 12 for primal 3's barefoot) these I wear size 12.5 with Socks.
-The full grain is a major upgrade compared to the genuine leather lems used to use. These are great for when I'm on bike patrol but now that winter is coming I'm having to switch to my 8" other brand boots which I'm dreading.
If this gets made into a boot (waterproof & non-waterpoof in black) my feet will thank you. I have 8 pairs of lems and the new instalments that are being released are truly amazing!
