FAQs

What age group is this base layer designed for?

This base layer is specifically designed for young riders and children, with sizes available for ages 7-8 and 9-10 years.

Is this base layer suitable for all weather conditions?

It is highly versatile. The technical fabric regulates temperature, making it suitable for cooler weather when layered, and breathable for warmer conditions. The UV50+ protection is beneficial year-round.

How does the anti-microbial feature work?

The fabric is treated with anti-microbial agents that inhibit the growth of odor-causing bacteria, helping to keep the garment fresh for longer.

Can this base layer be worn for activities other than riding?

Yes, its comfort, breathability, UV protection, and freedom of movement make it ideal for various sports and outdoor activities.

What does '360° stretch' mean?

'360° stretch' means the fabric can stretch in all directions, allowing for maximum flexibility and unrestricted movement during any activity.

How should I wash the base layer to maintain its performance?

Machine wash on a gentle cycle with a mild detergent at a low temperature (e.g., 30°C), and air dry. Avoid fabric softeners and high heat drying.

Does the quarter zip provide significant ventilation?

Yes, the quarter zip allows for adjustable ventilation. Combined with the vented underarms, it helps to keep the wearer cool and comfortable by allowing excess heat and moisture to escape.

Troubleshooting

Garment feels too tight

Ensure the correct size has been selected based on the child's measurements. The garment is designed for a close fit; consider sizing up if a looser fit is preferred.

Reduced sweat-wicking or breathability after washing

Check that fabric softener or harsh detergents were not used. Re-wash with a mild, technical-fabric-specific detergent and air dry.

Chafing despite flatlock seams

Ensure the garment is the correct size. If it's too small, it can stretch and create pressure points. Check for any internal tags that might be causing irritation.

Pros and Cons

  • Excellent UV protection for outdoor safety.
  • Advanced fabric technology for optimal temperature control.
  • High comfort level due to soft materials and construction.
  • Durable and designed for active use.
  • Versatile for equestrian or general activewear.

Cons

  • The fit is designed to be close to the body, which might not suit all preferences.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: This base layer requires no setup. It is ready to wear straight out of the packaging.

Compatibility: Designed as a base layer, it pairs well with fleeces, jackets, and gilets from the LeMieux Classique collection and other riding apparel. Its snug fit makes it ideal for layering without adding bulk.

Care Instructions:

  1. Machine Washable: Follow the care label instructions precisely. Typically, this involves washing at a low temperature (e.g., 30°C).
  2. Mild Detergent: Use a mild detergent. Avoid fabric softeners, as they can degrade the technical properties of the fabric.
  3. Drying: Air dry the garment whenever possible. Avoid tumble drying on high heat, which can damage the fabric's performance features.
  4. Ironing: Do not iron directly on prints. If ironing is necessary, use a low heat setting on the reverse side.
