FAQs

What is the primary purpose of this base layer?

The primary purpose is to provide comfort, temperature regulation, and UV50+ sun protection for riders, designed to be worn under other layers.

Can this base layer be worn on its own?

While possible, it is designed with layering in mind. Its features are optimized for performance when worn under riding jackets, fleeces, or gilets.

How do I ensure I choose the right size?

Refer to the sizing guide provided by LeMieux. The base layer should fit snugly but comfortably, allowing for the 360° stretch without feeling restrictive.

Is the UV protection permanent?

The UV50+ protection is an inherent property of the technical fabric and is designed to last for the lifetime of the garment, provided care instructions are followed.

How often should I wash the base layer?

It is recommended to wash the base layer after each significant use to maintain hygiene and fabric performance. Follow the specific care instructions for optimal longevity.

Will this base layer add bulk under other clothing?

No, the ultra-soft seams with flat-lock stitching are designed to minimize bulk, making it a smooth and comfortable layer under various riding garments.

Troubleshooting

Garment feels tight or restrictive.

Ensure you have selected the correct size. The 360° stretch offers flexibility, but proper sizing is key for comfort.

Skin irritation occurs despite soft seams.

Verify the size is correct, as a garment that is too tight can still cause friction. Ensure the care instructions have been followed to maintain fabric softness.

Base layer does not feel breathable.

Confirm that the vented underarm areas are not obstructed. Ensure the garment is not too tight, as this can impede airflow.
