Product Information
Full details
The LeMieux Classique Base Layer is designed for active female riders who need a versatile garment for training and daily yard tasks. It excels at temperature regulation and moisture management thanks to its technical fabric and vented underarms, providing a comfortable fit that moves with you. While it is perfect for layering, users should be aware that the material is lightweight, meaning it is best suited as a foundational piece rather than an outer shell in extreme wind or heavy rain.

FAQs
Is this base layer waterproof?
No, it is designed for breathability and moisture-wicking, not as a waterproof outer shell.
Can I wear this casually outside of the stable?
Yes, the modern design and matte logo print make it suitable for casual, athletic, or athleisure wear.
Does the fabric provide sun protection?
Yes, it features UPF50+ protection, helping to shield you from the sun while you ride outdoors.
Should I size up or down?
The garment is designed to be a form-fitting base layer; if you prefer a looser fit for layering, you may want to consider sizing up.
How should I clean the logo print?
Wash inside out at a low temperature to protect the integrity of the contrast matte logo print.
What material is this made of?
The Classique Base Layer is made from a technical, silky-smooth fleece blend designed for stretch and comfort.
Troubleshooting
Fabric snagging or pilling
Avoid contact with rough surfaces, velcro, or sharp metal objects like stable keys or grooming brushes.
Feeling too hot during activity
Ensure the quarter-zip is opened to maximize ventilation and check that your outer layer is also breathable.
Stitching irritation
Ensure the garment is correctly sized; a fit that is too tight can cause seams to pull and rub against the skin.
Pros and Cons
Pros
- Excellent moisture-wicking properties for high-exertion tasks
- Soft, silky fabric feel against the skin
- Low-profile design that layers perfectly without adding bulk
- Effective sun protection for all-day outdoor wear
Cons
- Material is thin and does not provide heavy thermal insulation on its own
- Requires careful washing to maintain the technical fabric's integrity
- May show outlines of undergarments due to the form-fitting nature
Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your base layer remains in top condition, follow these guidelines:
- Washing: Machine wash at a cool temperature, ideally 30 degrees Celsius.
- Drying: Air dry only; do not tumble dry as the heat can damage the stretch fibers and technical properties.
- Compatibility: Designed to layer effortlessly under vests, hoodies, or technical riding jackets without creating friction points.
- Storage: Fold the garment rather than hanging it for long periods to prevent the fabric from stretching out at the shoulders.
