FAQs

Is the material waterproof?

How should I dry the base layer?

Troubleshooting
Garment feels less effective at wicking sweat
Avoid using fabric softener in the wash, as this leaves a residue that prevents the fabric from wicking moisture.
Fabric has snagged on equipment
While the material is durable, treat snags carefully by trimming loose threads with small scissors; avoid pulling the fibers further.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Because this is a technical garment, proper care is essential to preserve the stretch and moisture-wicking properties. The base layer is machine washable, but it must be kept at or below 30 degrees Celsius. Avoid using harsh detergents or fabric softeners, as these can clog the microscopic pores in the synthetic fabric and inhibit its ability to wick moisture effectively. For best results, hang to air dry, which helps maintain the fabric's shape and elasticity. The base layer is designed to be highly compatible with other LeMieux riding apparel, fitting perfectly beneath riding fleeces or competition jackets due to its slim, low-bulk profile.
