SOFT SUEDE UPPER

Utilizing a full suede upper with perforations for breathability, this pair provides supreme comfort all day long.

ULTRA LIGHTWEIGHT

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

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 shoes are extremely comfortable and lightweight with a wide toe box that allows natural foot movement. Many appreciate the cork footbed and zero-drop design, noting they feel like walking barefoot. Users frequently mention the excellent fit for wide feet and all-day comfort, with several owning multiple pairs. Common feedback includes the need to size up half a size from regular shoes. While most praise the suede material and overall construction quality, some note the shoes can stain easily and may need protection. A few mention the opening can be snug initially, and one reviewer experienced durability issues with the foam sole wearing quickly.

Ultimately Perfect Zen Suede
Past experience infulenced me in getting another pair, especially these Primal Zen Suede , the color and the fact of a suede finish. These are perfect to dress them up or just as casual as a walk in the park.

Excellent barefoot shoes
Needed a pair of lightweight, sturdy, comfortable shoes for travel and boy do these deliver. I like them so well I may buy another pair in a different color.

Great Shoes
I was looking for a barefoot-style all around shoe that I could wear on my boat (with a sole that wouldn't leave marks) and on land, walking trails, to work - basically anywhere. I found Lems after searching online for outdoor clothing and gear, specifically barefoot-style shoes. I'd never heard of them, but I liked their look and the company vibe, etc., so I ordered my Primal Zens and have been onboard with them ever since. The cork interior footbed is a cool touch, and and the wide toe area lets my feet spread out and grip in the true barefoot way, while the neutral colored sole gives just enough cushioning without compromising the ability to sense the surface and contours of what's underfoot. Their look is unique - not too skate-like or woodsy, but a sharp combination of the two, in my opinion.

Great shoes but for the sizing
Similar to the Telluride boots which use the same rubber outsole, this shoe also has a sizing problem (runs small). My guess is you should size up 1 to 1.5 your regular shoe size for fit, lengthwise.
In terms of the shoe itself, I like the suede material and the flexibility of the outsole. It seems durable so far. There is just enough cushioning that you don’t feel like you’re standing directly on concrete. I would rate these as comfortable. They also look good. This would be a 5 star but for the sizing.

The Most Comfortable Shoes
This is my 3rd pair of Lems, they've all been good but the Primal Zen is the most comfortable pair of shoes I've ever worn. I'm on me feet a lot and these are outstanding.
