Product Information
Full details
The LeMieux Classique Base Layer is designed for active equestrians who need a versatile garment that transitions seamlessly from early morning yard duties to long training sessions in the saddle. It offers excellent thermal regulation and moisture-wicking capabilities through its technical fleece material, though users should note that as a fitted base layer, it is designed to sit close to the skin, which may require careful sizing for those who prefer a looser fit.

Troubleshooting
Fabric feels damp after intense exercise
Ensure you are not wearing a non-breathable outer layer that traps moisture against the base layer.
Visible snags or pulls in the fabric
Avoid contact with sharp tack, stable hardware, or rough grooming equipment to preserve the smooth finish.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your LeMieux Classique Base Layer lasts, machine wash on a cool cycle with similar colors. Avoid using heavy fabric softeners, as these can coat the fibers and interfere with the technical moisture-wicking performance. Hang to dry whenever possible to maintain the integrity of the stretch fabric. This garment is highly compatible with other equestrian apparel, fitting snugly under competition jackets, gilets, or winter fleeces without adding unnecessary bulk.
