Product Information
Full details
The LeMieux Classique Base Layer is an essential garment designed for active equestrians who require breathable comfort and a full range of motion during training, riding, or daily activities. Featuring advanced temperature-regulating fabric and a performance-oriented stretch fit, it keeps the wearer cool and dry in varied environments. While the moisture-wicking properties are excellent, users should note that as a dedicated base layer, it is designed to be worn close to the skin and may feel restrictive if not sized correctly for your layering preferences.

FAQs
Is the base layer true to size?
Yes, the LeMieux Classique is designed for a close, athletic fit. If you prefer a more relaxed feel, some users opt to size up.
Can this be worn as a top on its own?
Absolutely. It is designed to be versatile enough to serve as a stylish standalone top for casual wear or training sessions.
Does the material provide sun protection?
Yes, the fabric is rated at UPF50+, providing effective protection against harmful UV rays during outdoor riding.
Will the logo print peel off?
The logo is a high-quality matte print, but for longevity, we recommend washing the garment inside out.
Is it suitable for winter riding?
The fleece material provides good insulation, making it excellent for cold weather, especially when combined with other layers.
Troubleshooting
Fabric appearing to lose stretch or shape
Avoid washing with heavy-duty detergents or hot water; ensure the garment is not being dried in a tumble dryer.
Feeling too hot during high-intensity activity
Utilize the quarter-zip feature to increase ventilation and ensure the garment is being layered according to the current ambient temperature.
Pros and Cons
Pros
- Excellent moisture-wicking and quick-drying capabilities
- Extremely smooth fabric that prevents chafing under layers
- Integrated sun protection (UPF50+)
- Durable, high-quality construction with anti-bulk seams
Cons
- The close-fit design may not be suitable for those who prefer loose-fitting athletic wear

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your base layer, always follow the care instructions provided on the garment label.
- Washing: Machine wash on a cool setting (typically 30 degrees Celsius). Use a mild detergent and avoid fabric softeners, as these can degrade the moisture-wicking technology.
- Drying: Air dry the garment whenever possible. Do not tumble dry, as high heat can damage the stretch fibers.
- Compatibility: This garment is designed as a foundation layer. It pairs perfectly under equestrian outerwear or can be worn as a standalone top during moderate temperatures. Because the fabric is smooth, it slides easily under other fleece or technical jackets without bunching up.
