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.

Fits well, great color and material, and is easy to put on.
As a small woman, I was uncertain whether the Men’s Malibu would fit me, but it did. Extremely comfortable and attractive like my other pairs of Women’s Drifters (I have those in two colors), I slip into these shoes for most activities these days. Love the style and colors!

Slightly big feeling
Lems seems pretty accurate with their sizing recommendations, but for this one, I feel like the guidance should be 1/2 size down.
For me, this shoe feels slightly big, while also being a little too narrow in the toe box. It’s like the toe box is a little too long and not quite long enough. The extra room in the vamp area also adds to the big feeling.
I should have ordered a size 1/2 down for comparison, but I didn’t think to do so until it was too late.
In all, still a good shoe and I’ll enjoy the roomy comfort. Now I know for next time that Lems fit “calibration” isn’t foolproof, and it might be a good idea to order more sizes to be certain.
