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. The Primal Zen's slick construction also includes an attached tongue th

Love them
This is my second pair of Lems. I love them. My first pair were the trail thrashers which I love even more. If there were more color options I'd have more.
These do have less cushion to them which makes sense considering they are a barefoot shoe. They hug my feet nicely though, and feel comfy all day. I plan to buy them in another color.
I have found Lems to run about a half size smaller than my normal size so I recommend giving yourself some extra space by sizing up.

This is my 4th pair of Lems. What more do i say? Comfortable. Practical. No break in time. A great sporty casual shoe with thst great wide toe box. The 9 is perfect with a light weight sock.

I'll give them a try!
My PT wears these and I saw a video online promoting less padding to feel more grounded and to help with balance. I only have had them a short time, so I can't comment on anything long-term, but I can say a few things. Note that they run very small! I am wearing a full size bigger than I normally wear. The wide toe box is wonderful--where has this been my whole life? I normally wear wide width, but I got these in the normal width (not wide or extra wide) and they fit fine. They are well made and I love the mint color, getting compliments on the color from complete strangers, Fortunately I am at a stage of my life where I can afford their price, because I would never have paid this much even 10 years ago. I'm not sure they are worth it, to be honest.
