FAQs

Does this base layer provide thermal insulation?

While it is primarily designed for moisture-wicking and sun protection, the long-sleeve construction provides a light layer of warmth, making it ideal for layering under jackets.

Can I wear this for competition?

Yes, its polished look with the band collar and check pattern makes it a suitable, stylish choice for many schooling and clinic environments.

How should I store this garment?

It is best to fold or hang the garment in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to preserve the UV-protective properties of the fabric.

Is the material waterproof?

No, this is a technical moisture-wicking layer, not a waterproof shell. It is designed to keep you dry from sweat rather than external elements.

What is the best way to clean the metal embellishment?

Wipe the metal LeMieux logo with a soft, dry cloth after washing to prevent water spotting or tarnishing.

Troubleshooting

Fabric snagging on equipment

Ensure all zippers on outer vests are closed and tack items are free of sharp edges that could catch on the technical weave.

Satin trim losing luster

Avoid direct contact with abrasive surfaces and ensure the garment is washed in a laundry mesh bag to prevent friction.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • High-level UV protection for outdoor activity
  • Flattering, tailored fit suitable for competition or training
  • Flexible material allows for maximum mobility
  • Sophisticated design with premium hardware and trim

Cons

  • Requires specific care due to satin elements
  • Limited to a specific aesthetic style
  • Fitting must be precise to appreciate the stretch properties

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your LeMieux base layer retains its shape and technical properties, proper care is essential. Always wash the garment inside out to protect the debossed pattern and metal hardware. Use a gentle cycle with a mild detergent and avoid harsh fabric softeners that can degrade the stretch fibers. Because of the delicate satin piped trims, it is highly recommended to air dry the item rather than using a high-heat tumble dryer. For compatibility, this base layer is designed to be worn close to the skin under softshells, body protectors, or vests without adding unnecessary bulk.
