Product Information

Full details

The LeMieux Heritage Check Long Sleeve Base Layer is designed for equestrians who demand both aesthetic refinement and technical functionality in their training gear. Perfect for riders seeking a versatile garment that transitions easily from the saddle to daily errands, it offers excellent moisture management and UV protection. While its tailored fit is highly flattering, those preferring a looser, relaxed garment may find the slim-cut design too restrictive for layering over heavy undergarments.

FAQs

Is this base layer true to size?

Yes, it follows standard UK sizing. However, it is a tailored, slim-fit garment, so choose your regular size if you prefer a close fit, or size up for more room.

Can I wear this in the summer?

Absolutely. The fabric is lightweight and features UV50+ protection, making it ideal for sun exposure during summer rides.

Is the fabric see-through?

No, the material is crafted from high-quality, opaque technical fabric designed specifically to be worn as a primary layer.

Does the Heritage check pattern fade in the wash?

The pattern is debossed into the fabric, meaning it is a texture rather than a print, so it will not fade or peel over time with proper care.

Can this be worn under a show jacket?

Yes, its sleek fit and professional band collar make it an excellent, polished choice to wear beneath a show jacket.

Troubleshooting

Fabric snagging on barn equipment

Avoid contact with rough surfaces; if a small thread pull occurs, gently smooth the area, do not cut the thread.

Metallic branding appearing dull

Wipe gently with a soft, dry cloth; do not use abrasive sponges or cleaning chemicals.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • High-quality, durable moisture-wicking material
  • Flattering, feminine tailored fit
  • Provides essential UV50+ sun protection
  • Sophisticated design suitable for public wear
  • Exceptional range of motion for equestrian activities

Cons

  • Slim fit may not suit all body types comfortably
  • Light-colored fabrics may require frequent laundering
  • Requires careful washing to protect satin trims

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To maintain the integrity of the technical fabric and the delicate satin trims, follow these care instructions:

  1. Washing: Machine wash at a cool temperature (30 degrees Celsius) on a gentle cycle. Turn the garment inside out to protect the exterior finish.
  2. Detergents: Avoid using harsh biological detergents or bleaches, as these can break down the stretch fibers and fade the color.
  3. Drying: Air dry only. Do not tumble dry, as high heat will damage the elasticity and the metallic branding.
  4. Ironing: Ironing is generally not required due to the fabric's crease-resistant nature; however, if needed, use a low heat setting and avoid direct contact with the satin piping or metal embellishments.
  5. Compatibility: This garment fits standard UK sizing. It is designed to be worn close to the skin for maximum moisture-wicking efficiency.
