SIZE CHART | PRINTABLE SIZE GUIDE |
SIZING NOTES: Fit is small - Most people wear 1 full size bigger than their normal US size. If you already own the Lems Boulder Boot or Nine2Five - we recommend selecting the same size for this model
Think of the Primal Pursuit as a hybrid of the Primal 2 and the Trailhead/Mesa. We incorporated all of the features you have grown to love about these shoe models into one new and improved style!
The Primal Pursuit combines the fit and feel of the Primal 2 with its zero-drop and wide toe box, with the functionality and durability of the Trailhead/Mesa for more rugged Pursuits - see what we did there? ;)
The vegan-friendly materials include an air mesh upper that allows for maximum air flow to wick away moisture and keep you presentable for a post-run brewski. The Primal Pursuit features the same zero-drop heel and wide toe box as the Primal 2 that allows the toes to behave like they are meant to - free and splayed.
You’ll never have to load your weekend getaway pack with multiple pairs of shoes for all of your adventures and social activities, the Primal Pursuit has got you covered for all of it!

TRAIL TRACTION OUTSOLE Our newly designed outsole has recessed grooves and singular lugs, giving you the traction you need for any sticky situation!
VEGAN MATERIALS The vegan-friendly materials combine a PU synthetic upper with air mesh for maximum air flow to wick away moisture and keep you presentable all day long!
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.

Unreal
I don’t tend to wear shoes much. But honestly these don’t feel like I’m wearing them anyway. Can’t recommend enough.

Great shoes
The Lems Chukkas and Boulder boots are quite a bit wider and fit me perfectly, so these are a bit tight on my wide feet, but are still the best fitting running shoes I've owned. Very well made shoes too.

Very pleased
I normally take a 7.5 but I bought the 8 and even that was a whisker too short and I had to return them and get the 8.5. However have now worn them on a walk and I couldn’t be happier. My toes feel free for the first time and now my other walking boots feel like prison! Will have to get some more!

Bit disappointed
Show ran small in comparison to boulder boot, after going through exchange process in hindsight should have gone a full size bigger. Found the shoe hard, hot and heavy. Have ankle pain when walking and running in them. I love my boulder boots and primal 2 so was expecting big things from this shoe but was a bit disappointed.

good so far
seem good so far but haven't taken them on a long walk yet. Very happy with the room in the toes. for the first time ever my toes are not squashed. Sizes small - I normally take 7.5 or 8 and bought 8 but ended up having to return and get 8.5.
