Lems Primal Zen Suede Sneakers

We’ve got a lot of time for the footwear from Lems here at The Coolector and if we’re ever on the hunt for a pair of outdoors-orientated, adventure-ready footwear, they are always a go-to. Well, they’ve classed things up a bit with their latest release – the Zen Suede Sneakers – which are both absurdly comfortable and offer the sort of wilderness-ready performance their customers know and love.

The Lems Primal Zen Suede Sneakers is a minimalist shoe that comes with some added cushion and a more grounded base to ensure you put your best foot forward and always do so in considerable comfort. We’re loving the aesthetic of this latest release from Lems and the newly designed outsole guarantees that ultra-light fit and feel you’ve come to expect from the Primal 2, yet delivers a touch more protection with its platform that naturally wraps the shape of the foot.

This super cool release features a soft suede upper with perforations throughout which makes the Primal Zen Suede an ultra-comfortable, highly breathable option for all your day-to-day and outdoor adventure requirements. Lems’ proprietary IBR outsole is what makes their footwear so incredibly lightweight and flexible – and gives your foot a sense of weightlessness that will blow your mind.

The zero-drop design of the Zen Suede Sneakers positions the forefoot and heel flat to the ground which is great for correcting posture, aligning your spine, and promoting mid-foot strike. Unlike most traditional forms footwear that squeeze the toes together, Lems’ foot-shaped toe box allows for maximum room giving the toes ultimate freedom to wiggle and spread.

This super minimalist, kicking-around-town footwear provides a wider outsole width than the brand’s Primal 2 release, and a touch more cushion while still keeping the weight off, at just 8.2 oz. The Primal Zen’s eye-catching construction also includes an attached tongue that won’t fall out of position, and slightly stretchy laces to give you the ideal fit across the top of your foot. The cork footbed makes sure your feet will stay cool and comfortable, with or without socks. A footwear essential in our opinion here at Coolector HQ.
