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 extremely comfortable with a wide toe box that allows toes to spread naturally. Many appreciate the lightweight, flexible design and zero-drop sole that provides a barefoot feel while offering adequate cushioning. The cork insole receives frequent praise for comfort and support. Users report wearing them all day without discomfort, with several noting relief from foot pain and improved posture. Common feedback includes sizing running small, with many recommending ordering a half size up. Some mention a brief break-in period for those with high insteps. The shoes are praised for their versatility, suitable for daily wear, gym use, and casual activities. A few note limited traction on ice and wish for slip-on options.

Comfort
Hands down the most comfortable wide toe shoe I have ever wore. I have really wide feet and my pinky toe piggy backs off my other toe. And these shoes help with keeping my toes separated. Thank you Lems.

Awesome Customer Support
I purchased the Primal Zens after owning the Zen Suede. I had the Suede so long that the size was worn off. I ordered size twelve and wore them around the house. They didn’t quite fit the same as the Zen Suede. The return/exchange process was simple and easy. The 12.5s that I received in exchange fit like a glove and felt made for my foot. I will continue to purchase Lems, especially with the Zen footbed.
I want to thank the team member I dealt with directly, Devin. He was easy to talk to and dealt with my situation with personal care and professionalism.

Better than expected
These are my new favorite shoes. I can wear them all day and not be uncomfortable. They have helped with long persisting foot pain.
Only complaint is a good one, availability is less than desired, I had to wait for a bit for the pair I wanted to be available for purchase.
Truly happy with this purchase.
Keep up the great works LEMS
