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 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.

Reviews Summary

Customers say these waterproof boots are incredibly comfortable right out of the box with zero break-in time needed. The wide toe box accommodates various foot shapes, including those with bunions or wide feet, while providing excellent ankle support. Users report the boots perform exceptionally well in wet conditions, keeping feet completely dry through rain, snow, and creek crossings. Many mention the flexible sole allows natural foot movement while still offering protection from rocks and nails. The aggressive tread provides excellent grip on various terrains from city streets to mountain trails. Several customers note the boots are lightweight yet durable, with some using them for demanding work environments. A few mention the laces could be longer and some experience minor rubbing from tongue seams.

Good for Winter
I had been wearing true barefoot shoes for years before getting these so it was jarring at first because these have thick soles and feel very padded with the insole. Took some getting used to but I find that they're very good for winter because there is more of a barrier between the cold ground and the feet. They are also roomy enough to put 2 thick sock layers if needed for very cold days. I like to go birding and stand around in below freezing weather, and these keep my feet warm and dry even in snow, granted I have warm socks as well. Highly recommend for going outdoors in winter.

Comfortable, durable
These shoes are comfortable out of the box. I am usually a 9-9 1/2 and I’m glad I sized up to the 9 1/2. The toes have enough space. I haven’t dunked them in water fully — so I don’t have much to say about the waterproof part but they seem like they would be. The color may change slightly the more you wear them but it’s expected with leather.
