Lems - Trail Blazer

Very disappointing to find out you're correct. Was trying Lems as a transitional option since they're a bit thicker, but they're narrower than my Keens and Oboz. Also they've never heard of speed hooks I guess.

Trail runners will do all of the above. Been very happy with Lems

Lems are great. Not zero drop, and the sole is a little thicker than xero, but they're super comfy and hold up well to a lot of hiking

Not the Primals. These Trail Blazers are built on a narrower last.

Lems are hilariously narrow for being a barefoot shoe. There ever so slightly wider than xero and vivo, which are already pretty narrow. I'd recommend Softstar, Realfoot, and Bohempia for shoes that are actually wide

I can second the Trail Blazer. I've been using them for a few months and they're some of the most comfortable shoes I've worn. I have a pair of the Outlander waterproof boots for the wetter months.

If you use an outside shoe a lot, it will last only a year. You should expect to replace once per year. It depends on if your feet require wide or if you have a slimmer foot. Nike has great shoe lineup for trail but are expensive and more narrow. Adidas seem to be the standard and what the GOAT uses, as well as Simon. I have been using Lems Trail Blazer and really like it. The only thing I don't like about them is the colorway options.

yeah the trailblazers were narrow for me and my foot is pretty low volume

I'm absolutely loving the Lems Trail Blazer, wide toe box, durable af, waterproof, and actually comfortable. Going on half a season with them now and they are still looking brand new. Highly recommend.

They said these were wide. I got a women’s 9 and normally wear an 8.5, I don’t know if I should just return them.
