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.

FULL RUBBER OUTSOLE WITH ZIG-ZAG SIPING

This brand new, sticky rubber outsole incorporates 4mm deep lugs for incredible traction on snow, mud, and everywhere in-between! The built in zig-zag grooves (siping) provide additional biting edges to cut into ice/snow and helps ground your feet in slippery situations.

100% WATERPROOF UPPER

With its fully waterproof membrane and gusseted tongue, the Boulder Summit will keep your feet dry and warm, especially after a day on the slopes or slogging through slush on your way to the bar!

ZERO-DROP

Places the forefoot and heel close 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.

I LOVE these boots!
These are the FIRST comfortable boots I’ve had in my 64 years! I’ve been wearing them in snow, slush and on ice this winter. I left room for thick socks so they are very warm. They truly are anti-slip and waterproof. I bought my normal size but had to go down a half size. The toe box is nice and wide. Despite being zero drop the sole is thick enough to protect my feet in winter temps but still feel barefoot. Snow seems to slide off and salt or dirt wipe off easily. These boots are so easy to walk in, I feel so stable, which is important at my age. I also have Primal Zens for spring, summer and fall and I love them too. Lems are proving to be very nicely made and durable. THANK YOU!

Best Lems boots ever
I’ve been wearing Lems shoes for a long time. (My first primal was Stem branded). I’ve run thru a few of the Boulder Boots, comfortable, but clunky and not too sturdy in canvas. I recently bought the Boulder Summit Waterproof in Smoke. It’s the only footwear I’m using this winter.. with a slightly refined fit, it’s looks are city worthy yet trail ready. Thank you, Lems.
