FAQs

Is the base layer true to size?

The LeMieux Classique Base Layer is designed to be a form-fitting, athletic cut. If you prefer a looser fit, you may wish to size up.

Can this be worn in warm weather?

Yes, the moisture-wicking fabric and vented underarms are specifically designed to keep you cool and protected from the sun in warmer conditions.

Does it have sun protection?

Yes, the fabric is rated at UV50+ to help protect against sun exposure during outdoor riding.

Can I use fabric softener when washing?

No, you should avoid fabric softeners as they leave a residue that clogs the pores of the technical fabric, reducing its moisture-wicking ability.

What is the primary material?

The garment is constructed from a technical fleece material that offers both warmth and sweat-wicking properties.

Is it suitable for showing?

While it features a professional design, it is primarily intended as a training base layer. Always check your specific competition rules regarding apparel.

Troubleshooting

Fabric feels damp after heavy exercise

Ensure you are not wearing a non-breathable outer layer over the base layer, which can trap moisture inside.

Visible snagging on the fabric surface

Avoid contact with sharp items, such as velcro or heavy metal buckles on tack, which can pull the technical knit.

Pros and Cons

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the longevity of your base layer, follow these care instructions:

  1. Washing: Machine wash on a cool 30-degree cycle. Use a mild detergent that does not contain fabric softeners, as these can degrade the technical properties of the moisture-wicking fabric.
  2. Drying: Air dry the garment naturally. Do not tumble dry, as high heat can damage the stretch fibers and the UV protection coating.
  3. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to maintain the integrity of the fabric's performance features.
  4. Compatibility: This item is designed to be fully compatible with the broader LeMieux Classique collection, making it easy to color-match with existing riding gear.
