Full details
The LeMieux Classique Base Layer is designed for active individuals who need a versatile, high-performance garment that handles intense movement while maintaining comfort. Featuring advanced moisture-wicking and UV50+ protection, it is an essential piece for equestrians, runners, and outdoor enthusiasts looking to regulate body temperature during variable weather conditions. While it offers excellent performance and a sleek aesthetic, users should note that the technical fleece fabric is form-fitting, which may require careful sizing for those who prefer a looser, more relaxed fit.

FAQs
Is the LeMieux Classique Base Layer true to size?
It is designed to be a form-fitting base layer. If you prefer a slightly looser fit, consider sizing up.
Can I wear this in the summer?
Yes. The UV50+ protection, vented underarms, and moisture-wicking fabric make it highly suitable for warm weather outdoor activity.
Does it have a zipper?
Yes, it features a quarter-zip design for added ventilation and ease of dressing.
Is the material itchy?
No, the fabric is explicitly described as silky-smooth and features flatlock stitching to ensure comfort against the skin.
How should I wash it to keep the technical features working?
Machine wash in cold or warm water without fabric softener and avoid high-heat tumble drying.
Troubleshooting
Garment feels damp after intense activity
Ensure the base layer is worn directly against the skin. If worn over a shirt, the wicking mechanism will be obstructed.
Fabric odor persists after washing
Avoid using fabric softeners, which can trap oils and odors in the synthetic fibers. Use a technical sports wash detergent to deep-clean the fabric.
Visible pulling or pilling of fabric
Wash the garment inside out and avoid mixing it with abrasive items like zippers or denim that can catch on the technical material.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Because this is a technical garment, proper maintenance is essential to ensure the longevity of its features, such as the sweat-wicking and anti-microbial treatments.
Care Instructions:
- Machine Wash: Use a standard cold or warm cycle with mild detergent.
- Drying: Air drying is recommended to maintain the fabric's elasticity and shape, though it can be tumble dried on a very low heat setting if absolutely necessary.
- Avoid Softeners: Do not use fabric softeners, as they can coat the fibers and inhibit the moisture-wicking and anti-microbial properties.
- Ironing: Keep iron temperatures low if you must press the garment to avoid damaging the technical fibers.
Compatibility:
This garment is designed as a base layer. For the best experience, wear it under mid-layer fleeces or outer shells to complete a layered system that manages heat and moisture effectively.
