Imagine that your favorite boot (the Boulder Boot, obviously) went to the salon, got a drastic cut, and came out looking as fab as ever. That’s the Chillum. Like the Boulder Boot, the Chillum is a lightweight, zero-drop shoe with the same wide toe box and flexibility you love.

Most of the colorways feature canvas in the front and wool in the back (Vanilla does not include wool). Varsity Blue, Spruce, and Vanilla incorporate a slick suede accent that lines the outsole, whereas Blackjack is lined with a vegan microfiber for those of you looking for more of an earth-friendly option. Like the Boulder Boot Mid, we incorporated a cork layer footbed that you can remove for extra wiggle room, or leave as is if you fancy a little more cushioning!

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.

ULTRA LIGHTWEIGHT

These everyday shoes are some of the lightest on the market and are intended to feel like you're wearing nothing at all.

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 offer exceptional comfort with their roomy toe box and versatile design. Many reviews mention becoming repeat buyers, with several on their third or fourth pair. The casual style works well for both office and weekend wear. Common feedback includes sizing up half a size for optimal fit. While most praise the lightweight feel and all-day comfort, some note the white version gets dirty quickly and a few mention the sole wears down over time. Frequent comments address the shoes' suitability for various activities, from daily walks to business casual settings.

    Style and comfort all in one

    I really like my Lems Chillum shoes.

    They combine style and real comfort all in one.

    I like the semi-canvas look; good for summer and winter.

    I bought the white pair of chillum shoes so you need to be more careful to maintain the appearance.

    Interestingly these shoes have cork insoles.

    These are my second pair of minimalist shoes ever and I'm enjoying the experience of having more space in my footwear.

    EXTREME COMFORT!!!

    I have the Chillum, the Primal Zen, and the Primal 3, and all are extremely comfortable... ample room for toe splay, level platform (zero offset), and minimal sole thickness (low stack height).

    I use the Chillum as my "go-out-chill-out" shoe (awesome with jeans... or shorts). I use the Primal Zen (have four pair) as another "go-out-chill-out" and work shoe, but also use my other pairs for running and strength training at the gym. Also, I enjoy using the Primal 3 for running and strength training.

    Lems, please consider adding a shoe to your lineup that would be "ideal" for running ultra distances (paved or unpaved trail, maybe a road to trail shoe)... crazy durable, breathable, wide toe box, zero offset, and low(er) stack height (12-15mm)... and I'll buy stock in it.
