If you’re already a fan of the Primal 2, then consider the Primal Zen its heir apparent. We took the components you love in the Primal 2 - the wide toe box and the flexible IBR outsole - and built a shoe on a new platform that wraps around your foot like a glove. For a more comfortable feel, we also added 2mm of extra sole for added protection and durability. 

We didn’t call this shoe “Zen” for nothing. In shoes this comfortable, all of your worries will just slip away. This super minimalist, kicking-around-town shoe offers a wider outsole width than the Primal 2, and a touch more cushion while still keeping the weight off, at just 8.2 oz. The Primal Zen's slick construction also includes an attached tongue that won't fall out of position, and slightly stretchy laces to give you the perfect fit across the top of your foot. The cork footbed guarantees your feet will stay cool and comfortable, with or without socks. With so much comfort designed into this shoe, you'll truly feel like you're wearing nothing at all!

VEGAN MATERIALS

Comprised of microfiber and breathable air mesh, we made sure that all materials, down to the laces and glue, are 100% vegan.

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 incredibly comfortable and lightweight with a wide toe box that allows natural toe movement. Many reviews mention the zero-drop design provides excellent ground feel and stability. Users frequently note they need to size up half a size for proper fit. The cork insole receives mixed feedback - some love the support while others find it sticky or prefer more ventilation. Common praise includes durability, versatility for daily wear and light activities, and immediate comfort without break-in period. Several customers report relief from foot pain and have purchased multiple pairs, making these their go-to everyday shoes.

    I absolutely love how comfortable LEMS shoes are. My first pair arrived slightly small, but the exchange process was smooth and hassle-free. This is already my third pair of LEMS, and I’ll definitely keep coming back. Great product and excellent customer service.
