Are your men’s and women’s shoes the same or do they fit differently?
All of our products are built on an UNISEX last, so there is no difference between the men’s and women’s fit/feel.
My feet are two different lengths; can you send me two different sized shoes?
We wish that we could accommodate your request, but unfortunately we have to send same sized pairs. We recommend ordering the larger size of the two lengths.
I would like to try the shoes on first before ordering. Do you have a retail location in my area?
We do not have a retail location and suggest you contact us for help with sizing if you are unsure. Check out the sizing page for instructions on how to measure your foot for Lems. Alternatively some customers like to order two sizes and return the pair that does not fit, or we have a generous exchange policy. Unfortunately we do not pay for postage on returned items.
OUR PRODUCT LINE
ARE ANY OF YOUR PRODUCTS WATERPROOF
We have recently added the Waterproof Boulder Boot to our collection, which has quickly become a customer favourite. The other models are not waterproof (especially the Primal2 with its breathable air mesh). If you were looking to enhance the water-resiliency of any of our shoes we recommend using any sort water-repellent product (Nikwax, Scotchgard, etc.) to help with that.

How would you recommend cleaning my Lems?
For any non-leather products we suggest using a soft scrub brush, soap, and warm water. If your shoes do feature leather then a special leather care kit is recommended.
BENEFITS
I just discovered THE LEMS company and would like to know more about how Lems Shoes can benefit me?
With their unique design, featuring a wide toebox, flexible material, and zero-drop outsole, Lems shoes have the ability to aid in correcting common foot ailments, increase strength in the lower extremities, allow for greater balance, and help realign your posture. Plus, they are just down right comfortable.
I have never worn minimalist shoes, will Lems Shoes work for me?
Lems shoes will certainly work for you. You may experience some discomfort at first, but know that that is the tendons and muscles in your feet adapting to the lack of support that most contemporary shoe companies incorporate into their designs. This should subside over a short period of time. We recommend wearing the shoes sparingly at first and then progressing to longer periods in the product. This will help with the transitional process.
I suffer from bunions, hammertoes, Plantar Fasciitis... will Lems Shoes work for me
Though Lems shoes are not for everyone, they have had a lot of success stories from customers who have suffered from a myriad foot ailments such as these, who tried Lems products and ultimately found relief. Thus, we like to think they could help you too.
I have high arches/instep, will Lems Shoes work for me?
Lems have designed the shoes to fit as many foot shapes as possible, but sometimes they just do not. It is difficult for us to give a definite answer to this one, but we feel that the best way to know is by trying the shoes.
My doctor instructs me to wear custom orthotics, will LEMS shoes work for me?
All of our shoes feature a 3mm insole within the shoes that can be removed to allow room for almost all custom orthotics.
