Lems Kourt Whiteout

An Attractive & Comfortable Everyday Minimalist Shoe

The Lems Kourt is an attractive everyday shoe that seamlessly blends a sleek look with unparalleled comfort. Designed for the modern minimalist, this foot-healthy shoe combines contemporary aesthetics with functional design to yield a supremely versatile option that you can use for both casual outings and more formal occasions. Whether you're hitting the streets, heading to the gym, or simply enjoying a day out, the Kourt offers the perfect combination of style, comfort, and functionality. Incorporating tongue and heel perforations in its full-grain leather upper and a moisture-wicking cork-topped insole, this thoughtfully designed shoe helps ensure that your feet stay dry and comfortable all day long.

Zero-Drop Sole, Generous Toe Box, Lightweight Design

The Lems line of footwear is committed to promoting natural movement and optimal foot function, and in this regard, the Kourt is no exception. With a zero-drop sole that encourages maximum ankle stability, improved posture, and enhanced foot function, along with a low overall stack height and a flexible sole that, together, confer excellent ground feel, this shoe celebrates the incredible ability of your foot to support itself and become stronger on its own. Additionally, the Lems Kourt possesses a generous toe box that permits your toes to splay the way nature intended, offering you a variety of foot health benefits and helping to prevent many common foot and toe problems. The lightweight design of the Kourt also contributes to a healthier, more natural gait and higher-quality footfalls.

Compatible With a Variety of Other Beneficial Footgear

The Lems Kourt is designed to be worn with or without socks, depending on your preferences or fashion requirements. Like most Lems models, the Kourt works well in combination with a wide range of natural footgear, including Correct Toes toe spacers, Injinji toe socks, Pedag metatarsal pads, and Naboso insoles (as well as other helpful Naboso proprioceptive products). Additional footgear that you can use alongside the Lems Kourt to enhance foot form and function includes BlackBoard training tools and Human Locomotion training tools. Thanks to its compatibility with other supporting footgear and its pleasing appearance, the Lems Kourt is a great choice for those who value both wellness and style.

Note: If you are new to using Lems footwear, we recommend that you start in slowly, gradually building up your wear-time and giving your body the chance to adapt to the thinner soles and the increased workload on your feet.

To get the most out of your Lems Kourt shoes, the manufacturer recommends that you order your normal US shoe size. For example, if you normally wear a women's US size 8 shoe, consider ordering an 8 in the Lems Kourt.

If you're on the fence about what size to order, consider ordering both sizes and then simply return the size that doesn't fit as well for a refund. If you have concerns about sizing, feel free to contact us or Lems customer service.

Sizing Tip #1: To create additional roominess within the shoe, we suggest removing the included (optional) shoe liner/insole; this action does not, in any way, affect the performance of the shoe. Optionally, and to enhance balance, posture, agility, and general foot/body awareness, you might consider adding thin, flexible Naboso insoles instead.

Sizing Tip #2: Correct Toes toe spacers will often add width and length to the foot. If you’re planning to wear Correct Toes with your footwear, we recommend sizing up, especially if you are on the border between sizes.
