It adds Outerwear on Demand offers an alternative for environmentally conscious consumers who prefer “usership” to ownership, thanks to the Gore-Tex brand’s custom design that allows for individual areas of the garment to be replaced or repaired between uses if needed. Each mix-and-match top and bottom provide details such as adaptable fit features, integrated snow barriers and ventilation elements, Primaloft Silver insulation, patented Cohaesive Drawcord System, and Recco reflectors.
Constructed with Gore-Tex fabric, each piece is said to offer a waterproof promise, windproofness, and superb breathability, delivering maximum comfort, performance, and style for a wide range of conditions.
As part of the programme, the brand provides garment inventory services for each trusted partner. For the consumer, following a rental each garment will undergo a professional, multi-point inspection process, after which it will be cleaned locally to lessen the carbon footprint of shipping, then repackaged for next use.
Consumers will have multiple options to find their garment rental via the partner of their choice with online and in-store options, and easy in-store pickup at any of the 15 convenient participating locations.
