Product Information
Full details
The LeMieux Classique Base Layer is designed for active equestrian women who need a versatile, technical top for both training sessions and demanding yard work. Its primary benefit is the moisture-regulating, stretch fabric that provides freedom of movement while ensuring temperature control, though users should note that the slim fit may require sizing up if they prefer a looser layering experience.

FAQs
Can I wear this in the summer?
Yes, the fabric is lightweight and features UPF50+ protection, making it ideal for sun protection and staying cool during warmer months.
Is the material waterproof?
No, this is a breathable, technical base layer designed for moisture management and comfort, not for protection against rain.
How should I wash this garment?
Wash at 30 degrees Celsius using a gentle cycle. Do not use fabric softeners or bleach, and air dry away from direct heat.
Does the zip cause irritation at the neck?
The collar is designed with a protective guard to ensure the zip does not chafe against the skin when fully closed.
Will this fit under a competition jacket?
Yes, its sleek and low-bulk construction makes it an excellent choice for wearing under competition jackets or layers.
Troubleshooting
Fabric feels tight or restrictive
The garment is intended to be a base layer. If the fit feels too restrictive, consider sizing up to allow for more comfort without sacrificing the moisture-wicking performance.
Moisture is building up on the skin
Ensure you are not wearing a non-breathable outer layer over the base layer, which can trap sweat. Check that you haven't used fabric softener during washing, which can block the technical vents.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
This garment is designed to be worn directly against the skin. For best results, pair it with a technical mid-layer or gilet to maximize the moisture-wicking benefits. To maintain the integrity of the technical fibers and the matte logo print, machine wash at 30 degrees Celsius using a gentle, non-biological detergent. Avoid using fabric softeners, as these can clog the pores of the moisture-wicking fabric and reduce breathability. Always air dry the garment; do not tumble dry, as the heat can degrade the stretch properties and damage the synthetic fibers.
