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.

ZERO-DROP

Hard to get on!
I have a high instep, and it’s very difficult to put these shoes on, they’re great once I finally get my foot in to them, but it’s a struggle getting them in there! I love them otherwise!

The BEST
Perfect fit. My feet are on the narrow side, so I was worried I’d slip around in these. But the fit is perfect and the comfort is divine. Toes have room to wiggle, but the rest of my foot feels well held. Great all around, and good-looking too.

Deceptively well-fitting
At first I thought these were going to be too narrow, like every other shoe I've tried over the years... But once I had my foot all the way in, they were miraculously roomy! Just the right shape for my foot.
