Full details

The LeMieux Ladies Classique Base Layer is designed for adult female riders seeking comfort and protection during equestrian activities. Its key benefit is providing temperature regulation and sun protection with a highly technical, sweat-wicking fabric. A potential caveat is that it's designed primarily for layering, so its effectiveness as a standalone garment may vary. This base layer features UV50+ protection, excellent moisture management, and a comfortable fit for unrestricted movement.

Troubleshooting

Garment feels tight or restrictive.

Ensure you have selected the correct size. The 360° stretch fabric is designed for a snug fit, but if it feels overly constricting, consider trying a size up.

Fabric not wicking sweat effectively.

Check that the garment is clean and free from fabric conditioner, which can clog the pores of technical fabrics. Wash according to care instructions with a technical wash detergent if possible.

Seams are causing irritation.

The flat-lock seams are designed to minimize chafing. Ensure the garment is being worn the correct way out and that there are no wrinkles. If irritation persists, consider if the fit is too tight.
