Decathlon teams with Hirestreet for first ever UK rental collection
Decathlon UK has launched a new partnership with fashion rental platform, Hirestreet, making it the first major sports brand to offer such a service.
Its collection consists of 18 different styles of high performance ski and hiking jackets and trousers for women, ranging from sizes: 6 to 16.
Prices start from £15 to rent for a four-day period (RRP between £60 and £200).
Isabella West, Founder and CEO, Hirestreet, says: “Demand for rental fashion boomed in 2021 and customers are now looking to hire items for more than just formal occasions. For many of us, who ski infrequently, renting ski-wear makes a lot of sense: it’s high in price, bulky to store and rarely used.”
“Decathlon has been a market leader in sportswear for decades and we share similar values to sustainably make clothing - be it sportswear or fashion - accessible to everyone and with the planet in mind. We are proud to be partnering with Decathlon for their first ever UK rental collection.”
Sharon Poulter, Rental Manager at Decathlon, adds: “Renting our textile products is a new venture for us, and one that we're excited to be sharing with Hirestreet.”
“It is another way in which we are making sport more accessible - through convenience, price point and flexibility, all while reducing our impact on the planet.”
“Renting ski wear was an obvious starting point, but we expect to expand our offer in the future to make getting active even easier and more sustainable.”
