ENHANCED OUTSOLE

With its newly redesigned outsole, the Primal 3 features a wider footprint, offering improved weight distribution and stability.

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.

FLEXIBLE

Made from our signature IBR outsole, the Primal 3 is an ultra lightweight and flexible option compared to traditional footwear.

Reviews Summary

Customers say these shoes are exceptionally comfortable with a spacious wide toe box that allows natural foot movement. The lightweight design and zero-drop construction appeal to those seeking a barefoot feel with support. Many reviews highlight the cork insoles as a standout feature, providing cushioning without excessive bulk. Common feedback notes the shoes require sizing up a half size, and most wearers report no break-in period. While the vast majority praise comfort for daily wear, workouts, and long shifts, a few mention the sole feels thicker than previous versions or wish for more breathable materials.

Women’s Primal 3 blue and white
Good to wear, but the heel of the shoe is a bit high on the achilles.

Light as a feather
Was looking for a shoe that gave me more room in the toes and this one is perfect. My foot fits naturally and I was really surprised at how light the shoe is. My favorite part, I can stand and walk in them all day!

Great Shoe!
I have been looking a long time to replace my favorite trail shoe and these seem to hit the spot, but they are not actually made for the trail, my bad! I love them for every day use and gym, but I now need to explore the trail line of shoes Lems offers. I miss my vibram sole for gripping better on trail.
I am grateful for this shoe, it is hard to find a barefoot shoe that allows you to feel the ground some (I wear this one without the sole), a 0 drip, and a wide toe box. So grateful for finding LEMS!!!
