You may be asking: ‘but why do I need a base layer?’

Here are just a few reasons we believe every equestrian wardrobe deserves to boast base layers:

Base layers do what they say on the tin and so much more. To begin with, they are perfect for layering during freezing winters spent at the yard. And, when worn directly against your skin, a base layer acts quickly to evaporate sweat from your body – which prevents you from overheating in boiling summer weather. Thanks to advancements in fabric technology, a base layer will keep you comfortable all day, whatever the weather!

Second, base layers have compression properties too. Because of the specific balance of highly technical components integrated into every base layer, the material hugs your body with a gentle but constant pressure that can support your muscles and lessen the chance of sustaining injuries such as strains and sprains. This gentle compression offered by base layers also eliminates the occurrence of pressure points that can cause discomfort after wearing a garment for an extended period of time.

Third, linking to the benefits of compression as mentioned above, base layers aid recovery after strenuous exercise by ensuring an even flow of blood to your muscles. The way base layers assist your muscles in recovery after exercise is by holding your muscles in position and enabling them to be nourished swiftly.

Finally, as fabric technology advances at a startling rate, an ever-increasing array of base layer designs are available from market-leading brands like LeMieux®. Therefore, whatever your preferences, there’s a base layer to match your chosen colour scheme – whether you choose to co-ordinate for competition or just for fun, if you need help to select the perfect base layer, please don’t hesitate to contact the Discount Equestrian team!
