Product Information
Full details
The LeMieux Classique Base Layer is designed for active women who require a high-performance garment for equestrian activities, running, or daily training. Its primary benefit lies in its technical fabric that provides active temperature regulation, sweat-wicking properties, and UV50+ protection, ensuring comfort during intense movement. While it offers superior stretch and anti-microbial properties, users should note that as a fitted base layer, the sizing is specific and requires careful selection for optimal layering comfort.

FAQs
Is this base layer suitable for summer riding?

Can I wear this under a sweater?

Machine wash on a gentle cycle with similar colors. Avoid bleaching and fabric softeners to maintain the technical performance of the fabric.

Troubleshooting
Fabric feels damp after long use
Ensure you are not wearing non-breathable outer layers that trap moisture; pair with a technical jacket to allow the sweat-wicking fabric to function correctly.
Stitching appears stressed or pilled
Check that the size is not too tight, as excessive stretching beyond the intended range can stress the seam construction; wash inside-out to protect the surface.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your base layer, always consult the internal care label. This garment is machine washable; however, it is recommended to wash with similar colors to prevent dye transfer, especially for brighter color variants. Use a gentle cycle and avoid harsh biological detergents that may degrade the technical anti-microbial finish. Air drying is preferred to preserve the fabric's elasticity and technical properties, though it should be kept out of direct, intense sunlight to prevent fading. Given its base layer designation, it is compatible with most standard riding gear and activewear jackets.
