FAQs

What is the primary purpose of this base layer?

The LeMieux Classique Base Layer is designed to manage body temperature, wick away sweat, and provide UV protection, making it ideal for layering during athletic activities like riding or running.

Can I wear this base layer on its own?

While it offers UV protection and temperature regulation, it is primarily designed as a base layer. For colder weather, it is recommended to wear additional layers over it.

How do I wash the base layer?

You can machine wash the base layer at up to 30°C. Avoid using harsh detergents or bleach.

Does the fabric offer sun protection?

Yes, the base layer features UV50+ protection, offering significant defense against harmful sun rays.

What does '360° stretch' mean?

This refers to the fabric's ability to stretch in all directions, providing complete freedom of movement without restriction during any activity.

How does the quarter zip feature benefit me?

The quarter zip allows you to adjust ventilation, letting in more air when you're warm and zipping up for more coverage when needed.

Is this base layer suitable for sensitive skin?

The base layer is made with silky-smooth fabric, ultra-soft seams, and flatlock stitching specifically to reduce chafing and minimize bulk, making it comfortable for most skin types.

Troubleshooting

Base layer feels restrictive

Ensure you have selected the correct size. The base layer is designed for a close, performance fit; if it feels too tight, consider sizing up. Ensure the quarter zip is not hindering movement.

Fabric feels clammy after activity

While the fabric is sweat-wicking, heavy perspiration might still saturate it. Ensure the vented underarms are not obstructed. For very intense activity, consider a different weight layer if available.

Seams are causing irritation

The flatlock stitching is designed to minimize chafing. Ensure the garment is worn the correct way around and that no labels are causing additional friction. If irritation persists, it may be a personal sensitivity.
