Product Information

Full details

The LeMieux Heritage Check Long Sleeve Base Layer is designed for adult equestrians who prioritize both aesthetic sophistication and functional performance during training sessions. Its primary benefit is the combination of UV50+ sun protection and four-way stretch fabric, which ensures comfort and safety during long hours in the saddle; however, users should note that the specialized satin piping and premium finish require careful handling during laundering to maintain their appearance.

FAQs

Does this base layer provide sun protection?

Yes, it is constructed from fabric with a UPF 50+ rating to protect the skin from harmful UV rays.

Is this garment suitable for competition use?

While it features a smart aesthetic, please check your local competition regulations regarding colors and patterns for the specific discipline.

How should I store the base layer?

Store in a cool, dry place on a wide hanger to maintain the shape of the neckline and shoulders.

Can I tumble dry this product?

It is not recommended to tumble dry, as heat can damage the stretch fibers and the satin trim details.

Is the fabric heavy or lightweight?

It is a lightweight, technical fabric designed for breathability and comfort during active riding.

Troubleshooting

Fabric snagging

Avoid contact with sharp barn equipment or grooming tools; always store on a smooth hanger.

Loss of elasticity over time

Ensure you are using the correct wash temperature; high heat in the dryer is the primary cause of elastic degradation.

Pilling on fabric

Ensure the item is washed inside out and separated from heavy fabrics like denim or rough velcro during cycles.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent sun protection with built-in UV50+ rating
  • High-stretch fabric ensures maximum comfort in the saddle
  • Sophisticated design suitable for both training and casual settings
  • Premium accents like satin piping and metal branding enhance durability and style

Cons

  • Requires delicate care to maintain the integrity of satin trims
  • Fitted design may not suit those who prefer loose-fitting athletic wear
  • Specific care instructions must be followed to avoid damaging the debossed pattern

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your LeMieux base layer retains its technical qualities and aesthetic finish, follow these guidelines:

  1. Washing: Machine wash on a gentle cycle, ideally in a mesh garment bag to protect the satin piping.
  2. Detergent: Use a mild, non-biological detergent to preserve the fabric's protective properties.
  3. Drying: Air dry away from direct heat sources to prevent the fabric from losing elasticity.
  4. Ironing: Avoid ironing directly over the branded metal embellishments and embossed areas to prevent damage.
  5. Compatibility: This garment pairs well with technical breeches and works effectively as a base layer under a gilet or competition jacket during cooler temperatures.
