They are definitely not clown shoe wide, but I had no issues at all with toe splay. I would still size up a half size from your foot measurement to get the best fit possible.
I just ordered the Primal 2s after I watched your review on those a few minutes ago and after watching this video I think I should have gone with these. What are your thoughts? I’m coming from decent cushioned Brooks and enjoy running 5k to marathons
I forgot to add.. I’m suffering from multiple herniated discs in my lower back . Do you think the Primals might be to rough coming from Brooks and ASICS?
It all depends on your goal. I think the Primal 2 is a great recovery shoe to wear out and about to give your feet a chance to splay and can also be a good shoe for short runs to get used to a zero drop shoe. They are super light as well. The Primal Pursuit gives you more comfort overall but is much heavier. I would go slow and if running in a standard Brooks find a shoe in between with maybe a 4mm drop to start getting use to a lower stack height. Personally I would not run a marathon in any of the Lems. If I’m running anything over a 10K I prefer Altra for a zero drop running shoe.

Very helpful, thank you!
Another great shoe. The 360 shoe by Xeroshoes is also great for cross training/gym work... Lems is worth it though.
thanks boss baby
They’re listed on the Lems website at 10.5 ounces. Trailheads I believe weigh in at 11 and feel they’re extremely light. Who’s right??
A lot of reviews about this shoe stated the toe box is not wide enough. How do you feel about yours? Able to splay your feet?

@@chop3625 I would go with the 11.5
