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.

Reviews Summary

Customers say these boots offer exceptional comfort with a roomy toe box. Many appreciate the easy slip-on design and report they're comfortable straight out of the box. Most recommend sizing up a half size for the best fit. The boots receive praise for their grip and traction in winter conditions. While some note the boots run small initially, they find the included extra insoles helpful for customizing fit. The waterproof feature gets positive mentions for wet weather performance. Several mention the boots are warm and suitable for long work shifts. Some users point out the faux fur lining sheds initially, though this appears to settle over time. The boots earn particular praise from those who spend long hours on their feet, including bartenders, firefighters, and delivery workers.

Thank you for this excellent boot!
This is an almost perfect EMS paramedic boot! I am incredibly happy with this boot, great fit, protection, breathable, and looks smart.
Most EMS duty boots have huge platforms with significant toe drop, causing back and knee pain, this is the best option I've tried, for a zero drop wide fit and comfortable duty boot
The only warning is that on wet slick surfaces the grip is subpar, the Grip sole would be a nice option. I also think this boot would be ideal for one bagging/backpacking

Awesome boots
Awesome boots just like they are. My only complaint are that the elastic chafs my ankle so that i cant wear w/o socks, plus the lack of toughness/protection at the ankle bc the eleastic. The snugness of the ankle makes these boots feel very supportive and stable for a slip in boot. I would also love these in a 2" taller version, as well as with the grip sole option. If it were possible to do a 2" taller version with the elastic beginning above the ankle, or especially an outside zipper instead of the elastics, i would probably only ever wear that boot
