FAQs

What is the main purpose of this base layer?

The primary purpose is to provide comfort, coverage, and performance support for active young riders by managing climate and moisture.

Is this base layer suitable for cold weather riding?

While it offers moisture management, it is a lightweight base layer. For very cold weather, additional insulating layers would be necessary. It is best suited for mild to warm conditions or as a moisture-wicking layer under warmer gear.

How do I know if I've chosen the right size?

The base layer is designed for a body fit, meaning it should feel snug like a second skin without restricting movement. Refer to the specific sizing chart for the Aubrion Young Rider range for accurate measurements.

Can this base layer be worn by adults?

This specific model is designed as the 'Young Rider' version. While the technology is similar, adults may require different sizing and potentially a different product model designed for adult fits.

How does the moisture management technology work?

The fabric is engineered to pull moisture (sweat) away from the skin to the outer surface of the fabric, where it can evaporate quickly, keeping the wearer dry and comfortable.

What does UPF50+ mean?

UPF stands for Ultraviolet Protection Factor. A UPF50+ rating means the fabric blocks 98% of the sun's harmful UV rays, offering excellent sun protection.

Can I use fabric softener when washing?

It is strongly recommended not to use fabric softener, as it can clog the fabric's pores and significantly reduce its moisture-wicking and breathability performance.

Troubleshooting

Base layer feels too tight.

Ensure you have selected the correct size according to the size guide. If still too tight, consider if a looser fitting base layer might be more suitable for your preference.

Moisture-wicking performance seems reduced.

Check for residue from fabric softeners or detergents. Re-wash the garment following care instructions, avoiding fabric softeners, and consider a specialized sports wash if issues persist.

Zipper is stiff or catches.

Gently try to work the zipper up and down. Ensure no fabric is caught in the teeth. A small amount of graphite (from a pencil) or mild wax can help lubricate the zipper if needed.

Garment loses its shape after washing.

Ensure the garment is not being over-agitated in the wash and that it is dried flat or according to the care label. Avoid harsh spin cycles.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent sun protection with UPF50+ fabric.
  • High degree of flexibility due to four-way stretch material.
  • Keeps the wearer dry and comfortable with effective moisture management.
  • Adjustable ventilation with the 1/4 zip feature.
  • Lightweight, 'second-skin' feel minimizes bulk.

Cons

  • The body-fit design might feel too snug for those preferring a looser fit.
  • May not offer significant thermal insulation in very cold weather.
  • Requires careful washing to maintain fabric performance.
  • Primarily designed for active use, may not be ideal for casual wear.
  • Limited pocket or storage options.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: This is a ready-to-wear garment. Ensure the correct size is selected for optimal fit and performance. The 1/4 zip should be adjusted as needed for ventilation.

Compatibility: Designed primarily as an equestrian base layer, it pairs well with riding breeches, jodhpurs, and outer layers such as gilets or jackets. Suitable for various disciplines including show jumping, dressage, cross-country, and general riding.

Care Instructions:

  • Machine wash at 30°C on a gentle cycle.
  • Do not bleach.
  • Do not tumble dry.
  • Iron on a low heat setting.
  • Do not dry clean.
  • Wash with similar colours.
  • Avoid fabric softeners as they can impede moisture-wicking properties.
