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.

Definitely run small
I ordered my size and they were too small. I tried wearing them for a day while working and unfortunately my toes were pressed up against the front of the shoe. I ended up ordering another pair because I like them so much. The first pair I am unable to return, so I am out that money but the boots are worth it and they are the only pair of waterproof barefoot Chelsea boots that I've seen that are suitable for me to farm in.

Got these to replace my blundstones since I’m switching to zero drop/wide toe box and I’m really really happy with these so far! Very comfortable
