These shoes are made well, they are extremely comfortable. The only caveat is that one has to order a size larger than their regular shoe size. One might have to try a couple of different sizes to figure out the best fit. The toe box is wide and has room for toe correctors etc.

My husband loves these shoes so much he sometimes wears them around the house! we don't wear shoes inside the house typically so this says a lot. He likes the minimalist shoes for hiking so I thought I'd give them a try. Lightweight and comfortable enough for him to walk to work and wear them at work. Look better on than in the photos for sure.
If lems made house slippers I would have to buy them
Now Im back for some other hiking sneakers from lems
Pros:
- lighweight, good looking, feels like walking barefoot but better
Would recommend: Yes

These are a great comfortable office casual shoe for me. All Lems shoes are very natural feeling and long lasting. Great discounted price on campsaver. This is my third pair of Lems. All have been well made and great quality. Only complaint is I need more volume or at least shoes with laces further down so they are not so tight on top.
Would recommend: Yes

I have a black and a brown pair for business. I have other Lems for leisure. I only wear Lems and Xero but almost exclusively Lems. These are minimalist. I recommend making the switch. Your feet will love you. But, it could take time for your feet and calves to build the muscles needed to go minimalist all the time. Took about 6 months for me - I run marathons and do a lot of walking.
Pros:
- durable
- Light
- minimalist
- Love
Best Used for:
- I recommend them for your feet.
Would recommend: Yes

I have been running in Altras and other footshape shoes for quite a while. I also have been wearing traditional dress shoes for too long. After a recent business trip where I was stuck in dress shoes for a few days, my feet were killing me and I swore that I would never do that again. I ordered these Lems after having my eye on them for a few months. They are excellent! Wide toe box, true to size, enough cushion to keep my feet from freezing in North Dakota, and comfortable to stand in an operating room for 6-8 hours with no complaints. I’m absolutely sold on them. The leather is quality, but there were some signs that the actual manufacturing was a bit low on the quality control. Not a big deal, but there were prices of “plastic bag(?)” that was visible outside of the seams and metal eye hole on one shoe. Again, not a big deal. I just pulled it off. I highly recommend these shoes having worn them exclusively for a couple of weeks now.
Would recommend: Yes

First off, I really like these shoes. I’ve been wearing a suit to work for twenty five years and take pride in looking fresh with updated style(s). I always wore “nice” polishable shoes and recieved many compliments over the years. I also suffer from pain in multiple joints. Although not necessarily related to my shoes, I needed to start considering the health of being on my feet all day at work on top of training. I searched for zero drop dress shoes with a wide toe box - like my running shoes. Not a whole lot out there. These fit the bill and at a price most people will consider however pushing it at $100+. After three weeks I feel So much more comfortable at work. The style is fine but honestly, maybe a little too casual for a nice fitted suit. Not quite sharp looking enough but also not looking cheap or sneaker(ish). Already considering the brown pair. They just feel good.
Would recommend: Yes

I bought a 43 and 44.
44 is luxuriant for my wide feet/high instep.
43 too tight, so returning for exchange to another 44.
Customer service was great for the RMA Label and willingness to exchange.
Flexible sole, light and air injected(?) insole, zero drop, and wide comfy toe box.
Plenty of room for the toes to wiggle freely. Luxuriant soft leather. But substantially built and looks like it will be a durable shoe.
They feel lighter and more ground sensitive than a normal shoe, but doesn't feel barefoot. Like half way in between barefoot and regular dress shoe.
You can remove the insole for more ground sensitivity.
Would recommend: Yes

I am a huge fan of Lems Shoes and the Nine to Five is in the top two. I am an attorney for I have to wear slacks and chinos on a daily basis and this shoe wears great with my daily attire. Although I probably wouldn’t wear them with a suit.

I finally found a really good pair of shoes that cushions my feet the way these do (bought 2). Wide toe box accommodates my toes well. Comfort allows me to stay on my feet throughout the day without lower leg and foot fatigue (leather softens with use, so stiffness initially upon purchase should gradually decrease). I would definitely recommend these to anyone looking for a good zero-drop pair of shoes, whether you have wide feet or not.
Would recommend: Yes

Recently, I traded my lab coat for a suit. My new position requires travel and meetings with executives. I can not wear most dress shoes because of an old ankle injury. I cannot wear shoes with heels. You cannot find dress shoes without heels except for these.They look and feel great.
