Although I did not need to use my Free Return the service when required is excellent
My white Barebarics - Wave size EU 43 are comfortable to wear and look great on.
Comfortable and gives a nice firm support to my foot that I haven’t seen in my other shoes. Shoe laces even stay tight the entire day. I’m a Sketchers girl from way back but I’m converting to this brand. Would definitely recommend giving this shoe a go
I'm really happy with these inner soles. I popped them in my Altra Lone Peak 9+now that I'm well through the initial journey of tendinitis (6 months). I plan to use them for a few months to lessen the impact of my heel strike as my tendon starts adapting to more load. As always great service from BPrimal.
I love these black boots. I’ve worn them out to lunch, in the garden , they’ve been wet and cleaned easily after a stint in the chicken coop. Practical and comfortable. I always feel good in them no matter where I am .
I love these boots! I feel very balanced when walking on uneven ground now. My feet aren’t aching after a days work anyway.
Comfy straight out of the box. I got a size up and glad I did. Tiny bit 'clown shoe' but not awful.
The two ladies who served us were helpful, informative and fun.
Walked in our new shoes for 3 days solid and no sore spots on feet, hips and very happy to put them back on the next day
So comfortable, very happy with these shoes
Honestly incredible boots. I have been wanting the Lems Chelsea’s for ages but the price point is absurd. These are the best barefoot shoes I’ve had in the last 15 years but the tread is not great and has already worn almost out in 6 months. Still very happy with them
Absolutely love these. Fit really well in my usual W10.5. and they suit my mid (to low) volume foot because the width is in the footbed and not the upper. The colour is really versatile. Lovely suede. Like all my Lems a fantastic shoe.... wish they had more colours!!
Absolutely superb shoes. Comfort wear and can be used be nearly any occasion.
Free returns useful esp when trying sizes for first time. Minimal hassle.
Made BPrimal source these for me before the pre-orders and so worth it. Got them for hiking in wet New Zealand. The waterproofing has been great and somehow I have been wearing them everyday for dog walks in wet Auckland.
Note it is relatively heavy for barefoot shoes because of the vibram soles but grip is great.
Sizing wise it is same as my Lem’s Primal Zen. I went up by half size as I was previous bumping my big toe with downhill descents with hiking in the primal zen
Already had a pair in black and absolutely love them, so I recently bought another pair in brown.
These are the most comfortable and durable boots I’ve ever owned.
I wore them constantly on trips to Africa, Canada and Alaska, never let me down in all weather conditions. Definitely taking them with me on my next OS adventure, will be hard to choose which pair.
I know I’ll get years of wear out of them both.
Highly recommend these boots, do your feet a favour, you won’t regret purchasing them.
After travelling for 5 and a half weeks with these as my only pair of shoes, I can happily say that these did everything I wanted them to - handled rough terrain, uneven ground, short hikes, walking around a city (without looking like a hiking shoe) and even walking up an icy glacier with no problems (while others were slipping and sliding around me).
This is the online review that convinced me to give the Trail Thrashers a go: https://ruinyourknees.com/review/lems-trail-thrasher-review/
And this is the line that sold me: “…Lems makes shoes for people who value quality, versatility, and natural form, but aren’t looking to specialize. In other words, if you could only buy one shoe, Lems would be near the front of the pack. If you are looking for your next extreme backcountry shoe, Lems isn’t the shoe you want.”
The only thing to note is these are quite a built up shoe so your feet could get quite hot. Possibly not ideal if going to hot countries. I was also worried about them getting wet but luckily only encountered a few showers and nothing torrential. There is a waterproof version but I preferred the look of these in the white.
Very stable and comfortable. A little more structured than a lot of barefoot shoes, but perfect for rougher trails. They still have enough flexibility to let me know what I’m walking on, and great to run in.
Love these shoes!! I already own (and love) a leather pair of Be Lenka’s - but needed a waterproof version for Winter - these shoes are warm, waterproof, and require no ‘breaking’ in - they’re super comfortable and have a truly non slip sole - live in the rainforest surrounding the Yarra Valley region of Victoria and they’re handling slippery rocks and moss like a boss! Highly recommend this awesome shoes 💫
I was looking at a few days of walking around in the city. However, my feet were sore in my regular sneakers. Trying on this pair of shoes at Bprimal, was a relief! The allowed me the explore the city for the rest of the trip without any issues. I recommending these type of shoes for everyone!
I have been searching for sandals like these. Great barefoot alternative to tevas.
Wore for the first time yesterday and was on my feet all day. They are so comfortable and stopped the problem of my toes rubbing toggether.
I have bought from Bprimal before,never used shipping protection But use it the last time as I bought shoes for my sister and I wanted to be sure I would get them A surprise for her To pay a bit more was not a problem You get what you pay for
Never disappointed with a shoe from Lems - comfiest shoes ever 👏
Only received them yesterday, and wore them today with my toe socks. Very comfortable. My brother also bought a pair and is extremely happy with them.
