PRIMAL 2 VS. PRIMAL 3: WHAT'S THE DIFFERENCE?
BALANCE WEIGHT DESTRIBUTION - 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.
ZERO-DROP PLATFORM - Just like the Primal 2, the Primal 3 is built in a zero drop platform which keeps your heels and toe level, mimicking your natural barefoot positionon a flat surface.
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.
ENHANCED OUTSOLE - The primal 3 is made with out wildest 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
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.
We Believe Your Feet Deserve Better
The foot and ankle is a complex mechanical structure made up of 26 bones, 33 joints and over 100 muscles, tendons and ligaments.
The average person takes 8,000-10,000 steps each day. That adds up to approximately 185,000 km's in a typical lifetime—the equivalent to circling the globe more than four times!
Your feet have about 250,000 sweat glands which produce up to a cup of perspiration each day.
There are approximately 8,000 nerves in the feet—that’s more per square centimeter
In an average day of walking, your feet experience forces totalling hundreds of tons—the equivalent of a fully-loaded cement truck.
Women experience foot problems four times more often than men. This is largely attributed to shoe choice. High heels and toes with pointy, narrow toe boxes cause multiple foot issues.
Natural Foot Shaped, Flexible, Flat & Lightweight
Barefoot shoes mirror the shape and the natural curve of the feet, allowing them to move as nature intended. ... Barefoot Shoes not only strengthen all the muscles in the foot, but they also help the foot develop in the correct way to prevent deformities. Strengthening your feet by exercising and wearing minimalist shoes can improve your posture and prevent pain and injuries.
For many people, barefoot shoes also provide relief and improvement for existing problems like knee pain, back pain, bunions, and more.
