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.

Reviews Summary

Customers say these slip-on shoes are exceptionally comfortable with a wide toe box and flexible sole. Many appreciate the easy on/off design with a foldable heel for quick wear. The shoes work well for walking long distances, daily wear, and various activities from yard work to travel. Common feedback includes sizing up half a size for the best fit, as they tend to run small in length. Users find them lightweight, breathable, and versatile enough to pair with different outfits. Some mention the material attracts lint and grass, while a few note they can feel wide through the midsection.

Literally never take these off. Wear them as slip ons w the heel down. And I can use them for weight lifting too because of the zero drop. Plan to get the fur lined ones next for in house only. They’re so good looking too. There is not a thing about these perfect shoes that’s not to appreciate! Size up!
