Like a sturdy version of a Primal 3 one of our most popular models

Suede Version is NOT Vegan

It took us nearly a decade of thoughtful design and prototyping to create the Primal Zen.  The Primal Zen offers the same minimalist casual shoe as the Primal 3, that is vegan-friendly and zero-drop, but with some added cushion and a more grounded base. Its newly designed outsole guarantees that ultra-light fit and feel you've come to love in the Primal 3, yet adds a bit more protection and durability with its platform that naturally wraps the shape of the foot. Its upper is built with a combination of breathable air mesh and microfiber, so your feet will truly feel at peace wherever your next journey takes you!

ALL HAIL THE ZEN MASTER

If you’re already a fan of the Primal 3, then consider the Primal Zen its heir apparent. We took the components you love in the Primal 3 - the wide toe box and the flexible IBR outsole - and built a shoe on a new platform that wraps around your foot like a glove. For a more comfortable feel, we also added 2mm of extra sole for added protection and durability. 

We didn’t call this shoe “Zen” for nothing. In shoes this comfortable, all of your worries will just slip away. This super minimalist, kicking-around-town shoe offers a wider outsole width than the Primal 3, and a touch more cushion while still keeping the weight off, at just 8.2 oz. The Primal Zen's slick construction also includes an attached tongue that won't fall out of position, and slightly stretchy laces to give you the perfect fit across the top of your foot. The cork footbed guarantees your feet will stay cool comfortable, with or without socks. With so much comfort designed into this shoe, you'll truly feel like you're wearing nothing at all!

      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.

      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.

       ZERO-DROP

      Places the forefoot and heel flat to the ground correcting posture, aligning your spine, and encouraging mid-foot strike.

      These are the shoes I have been looking for for a very long time!

      I had high hopes of the Lems Primal Zen shoes and I was not disappointed. As soon as I slipped them on they felt just right (and when you know, you know!)
      The toe box is nice and roomy and the design is so good, I like the way the tongue is attached, with many shoes the tongue gets pulled down the shoe when you put it on which is so annoying. In fact I like everything about these shoes from the shoelaces which do not undo themselves whilst you are walking, the cork insoles and the fact that the sides don't rub my ankle bones. These are the shoes I have been looking for for a very long time. I have a couple of pairs of zero drop shoes with very thin soles but I do not find them at all comfortable for walking on pavements. Too much "barefoot" for comfort!
      The Primal Zen shoes are sufficiently padded to alleviate this problem and I am very happy with my purchase.

      Love Lems shoes so much

      Toes have space, and soles are soft and comfortable for walking, even on rugged cliff paths. My absolutely favorite make of shoe so far.

      Lems Primal Zen

      This was my second order of Lems Primal Zen. Fantastic footwear, so comfortable to walk in. Wear mine every day for work, really allows my toes to splay out and my feet to move through their full range of motion giving a real feeling of connection with the ground. Suffer from arthritic big toe which can be painful in regular shoes as toe box not big enough. My feet are very happy in my Lems!
