Fit & Sizing Guidance: This is a close-fitting technical base layer designed to sit next to the skin. Most riders take their usual UK dress size; those preferring a slightly easier fit may size up. The stretch fabric is intended to move with the rider.
Care Instructions: Wash inside out at 30°C with similar colours. Use non-biological detergent. Do not bleach or dry clean. Air dry away from direct heat and do not tumble dry. Iron on low, avoiding logo areas.
Design Notes: The Classique base layer uses a close-cut silhouette with a quarter-zip front and chin guard. Vented underarm panels increase airflow, while the main body fabric provides stretch and moisture control. Flat-lock seams reduce bulk under outer layers, and a matte LeMieux logo adds a subtle branded finish.
Materials & Build Quality: Constructed from a technical blend of 82% nylon and 18% elastane chosen for UV protection, moisture control and flexibility. Underarm panels use the same stretch fabric with venting for airflow. Seams are finished with flat-lock stitching.
Practical Use & Conditions: Suitable for leisure riders, everyday horse owners and competition riders needing a practical technical top for schooling, hacking and yard work.
Typical User Profile: Riders who spend long periods in the saddle or on the yard and prefer technical clothing that manages heat and moisture while remaining comfortable against the skin.
