LeMieux Fleece Earwarmer - Soft Borg Fleece Headband for Cold Days on the Yard
The LeMieux Fleece Earwarmer is a low-profile stretch headband made from soft borg fleece that covers the ears and blocks cold winter draughts. It is designed for riders, grooms and yard staff who want warmth without the bulk of a full hat, whether they are schooling, hacking, mucking out or doing the morning turnout.
Wear this low-profile style to keep your ears warm when the cold winds bite. The soft, stretchy borg fleece hugs it close to your head to keep it in place - and to keep those chilly draughts out. Browse more LeMieux rider wear to build a coordinated winter kit.

- Smooth the fleece down at the temples so it lies flat with no gaps for draughts.
- Tie your hair up or fit a hair net afterwards so the band stays flat against your head.
- Layer a hood, beanie or your riding hat over the top if conditions demand extra warmth.
- After use, wash gently, reshape while damp and dry away from direct heat.
FAQ
What is the LeMieux Fleece Earwarmer made from? It is made from soft, stretchy borg fleece, which gives a brushed, warm surface against the skin and enough stretch to hold the band in place.
Will it fit under a riding hat? The low-profile design is slim, but any layer worn under a hat changes the fit. If you plan to wear it beneath your hat, check the hat still sits correctly and have the fit confirmed by a trained fitter.
Does an earwarmer replace a riding hat? No. It is a warmth layer only with no impact protection. Always wear a correctly fitted riding hat when mounted, have it fitted by a trained fitter and replace it after any impact.
Will it stay on while riding? The stretch borg fleece hugs the head closely, which helps it stay in place during schooling, hacking and yard work. Smoothing it flat at the temples before tying your hair up gives the most secure fit.
How do I wash it? Wash gently, reshape it while damp and dry naturally away from direct heat to protect the fleece pile and the stretch.
Is it suitable for non-riders? Yes. It works equally well for dog walking, spectating at shows and general cold-weather wear.
