Good to Know
Primal Soles appears positioned around barefoot/minimal footwear, which is a legitimate longevity philosophy—lighter materials and simpler constructions can mean less resource input. However, we could not find detailed evidence of material sourcing (fiber type, origin), specific construction methods (stitch counts, reinforcement patterns), or formal repair infrastructure. The brand would strengthen its timeless positioning by publishing supply chain transparency, offering spare soles or resoling services, and documenting how their designs perform over 5–10 year lifespans.
About our research
Every brand on Oras is independently researched across five pillars: material quality, construction and craftsmanship, longevity and repairability, sustainability and ethics, and design philosophy. We use a consistent framework so you can compare brands meaningfully.
Oras does not sell products directly. We connect you to the brand's own site. We may earn a small affiliate commission, but this never influences our research or which brands we feature.
