LeMieux Girls Legging Lizzie Mesh

This Walnut page has one size: 122-128 (age 7-8). LeMieux itself sizes by age, in two-year steps. If your child is on the borderline, or tall for their age, measure them and compare with the LeMieux size chart. The shop is happy to help. If a larger size is needed, look at the Lizzie Mesh in Dusk or Aqua, which go up to 158-164 (age 13-14).

Wash the leggings at 30°C, inside out and separately from other clothing. Use a gentle detergent, no fabric softener and no bleach. Keep them away from the tumble dryer and the iron, as LeMieux specifies for its grip styles. Hang them to dry and stick to the care label.

The Walnut is a good choice for a girl of around seven or eight who wants light, simple leggings for lessons and summer camps, and likes having grip at the knee. For a younger child, LeMieux has the Mini range, at Maddelin including the Mini Pull On Legging.

If your daughter also rides a lot in winter, leggings with mesh are less suitable. The LeMieux Ella Winter breggings have a fleece lining and full grip. If she wants a pair with a fastening and the look of classic riding breeches, take a look at the LeMieux Izzy riding breeches.

Your daughter pulls the leggings up herself by the elasticated band, with no fiddling with a fastening. The knee grip sits on the inside of the knee; the mesh on the thigh lets air through and makes these leggings mainly suited to warmer days. The small thigh pocket is for a phone.

Wash at 30°C, inside out and separately, with a gentle detergent, no fabric softener or bleach. Do not tumble dry and do not iron; hang them to dry and follow the care label.

Which size should I choose?
In Walnut, only 122-128 (age 7-8) is available. Measure your child and compare with the LeMieux size chart. If that size does not fit, the Lizzie Mesh in Dusk or Aqua comes in larger sizes. If in doubt, the shop will help you.

Why leggings rather than riding breeches for a child of seven or eight?
Riding breeches fasten with a zip and a button. Leggings do not: you pull them up by the elasticated waistband. For young children who get changed by themselves, that is simpler.

What exactly is knee grip?
Silicone only on the inside of the knee, where the leg lies against the saddle. The seat has no grip. That is the difference with full grip.

How do I wash these leggings?
Inside out at 30°C, separately, with a mild detergent and no fabric softener. Let them dry naturally: no tumble dryer, no iron. The care label has the final say.

Is the Walnut the same model as the Dusk and the Aqua?
Yes. It is the same Lizzie Mesh Legging, just in a different colour and here in one size.

Is the Lizzie Mesh warm enough for winter?
The mesh on the thigh lets air through; these leggings are mainly made for warmer days. For winter, the lined LeMieux Ella Winter breggings are a better choice.
